As part of the 0.5.0 update, Phasmophobia has introduced Cursed Possessions. These items affect players' abilities as a sort of tradeoff with things like their sanity. Currently, there are six cursed items that players can find across the maps. We'll go over each of the areas where these types of objects can show up on the map.
All Cursed Items and their uses
Here is a rundown of each of the cursed items and what they do. For a more in-depth look at each one, check the link above. From the Haunted Mirror to the Ouija Board, these are all of the cursed items:
- Haunted Mirror - The Haunted Mirror allows players to easily find the haunted room.
- Music Box - Once activated, this item will temporarily cause the ghosts and ghouls nearby to sing, distracting them from an attack.
- Summoning Circle - Players can use the summoning circle to trap a ghost. However, once freed, the ghost will hunt the player.
- Tarot Cards - In each deck their are 10 cards that each having different uses. These are high-risk items and keep the player from quickly snapping photos for evidence.
- The Death - Triggers a cursed hunt.
- The Devil - Triggers a ghost event.
- The Fool - A troll card that will pretend to be another card and reveal itself afterward. It has no other effects.
- The Hanged Man - Instantly kills the player.
- The Hermit - Forces the ghost to be inactive for a short time.
- The High Preistess - Revives a dead player.
- The Moon - Removes all of the player's sanity.
- The Wheel of Fortune - Will add or subtract 25 sanity points.
- The Sun - Fully restores the player's sanity.
- The Tower - Triggers a ghost interaction.
- Tortured Voodoo Doll - Can be used to directly control and affect the ghost or ghoul hunting the player. However, this will also aggitate them.
- Ouija Board - While already an active part of the game before the update, the Ouija Board is now classified as a haunted object, making it more effective at communing with ghosts. However, players will need to be more careful with closing off their communication afterward.
