Obtaining the Music Box

Like other cursed items in Phasmophobia, the Music Box has a 1/7 chance of appearing on any given map. There's no guaranteed spawn; it's purely luck-based. Only one Music Box can spawn per game. Once located, activate it by interacting with it.

Using the Music Box

Several strategies involve the Music Box. Upon activation, it plays a song. If a ghost is within 20 meters, it will "sing along," revealing its location. Within 5 meters, the ghost will approach the Box. You can even place the activated Box on the ground as a lure. The Box automatically stops playing after the song concludes. Note: Holding the Box decreases your sanity.

Triggering a Hunt with the Music Box

The Music Box can initiate either a cursed or standard hunt, depending on these conditions:

• Throwing the active Box.
• Reaching 0% sanity while holding the playing Box.
• The ghost approaching the Box for over 5 seconds.
• The ghost's proximity to the player holding the active Box.

For effective use, consider bringing supplementary tools like Smudge Sticks to increase your survival chances during a hunt, allowing for ghost identification or objective completion.
