In Phasmophobia, the Ouija Board is a cursed possession that allows you to communicate directly with the ghost by asking specific questions. When activated, you can ask a variety of questions to get information, though using it will drain your sanity and can provoke the ghost.
Interacting with the Ouija Board
To use the Ouija Board, you must be in its immediate vicinity and typically have the lights off. Interacting with it by pressing 'F' (default key) will activate it, after which you can speak into your microphone to ask questions.
Common Questions and Their Responses
The ghost will respond to specific phrases, often providing crucial information for identifying its type or location. Here's a breakdown of common questions you can ask:
| Category | Questions to Ask | Typical Ghost Response |
|---|---|---|
| Location | "Are you here?" "Are you close?" |
Yes / No |
| Bone Location | "Where is the bone?" "Where did you die?" "Where is your body?" |
The name of the room (e.g., "Kitchen," "Basement") |
| Hide and Seek | "Do you want to play hide and seek?" | Counts down from 5 to 0, initiating a cursed hunt |
Important Considerations
- Sanity Drain: Every question answered by the Ouija Board will significantly reduce your sanity. The amount of sanity drained varies depending on the answer and the ghost's type.
- Ghost Interaction: Asking questions can agitate the ghost, potentially leading to a cursed hunt, especially if you ask questions related to "hide and seek."
- Leaving the Board: If you activate the Ouija Board, you must say "Goodbye" to it before walking away, or it will shatter, triggering a cursed hunt.
Using the Ouija Board effectively can be a powerful tool for gathering evidence quickly, but it comes with considerable risks that players must weigh.
