Just like theTarot Cards, the Cursed Possession items inPhasmophobiacan be equal parts useful and dangerous. While the equipment at your disposal is the best way to accurately identify the ghost type you’re dealing with, the addition of these special items gives a bit of an edge to each investigation.
Whenever you begin a contract, a randomly pre-selected Cursed Possession object will spawn. you may also customize your settings and force the game to spawn a specific item, but where’s the mystery in that?
Much like any item in the game, a Cursed object has a unique ability, such as showing you the ghost room, triggering an interaction, forcing the ghost to manifest, etc. However, knowing where each one spawns is the first step, so here’s a quick guide on where to find all the Cursed Possession items acrossPhasmo‘s 11 (technically 12) maps.
6 Tanglewood Drive
The map that most will be familiar with, Tanglewood Drive is the smallest location, essentially turning it into a contract for beginners or those who just want a quick game. It being so small means finding any spawned item is much easier, but newcomers might have a little bit of trouble with one or two of them.
42 Edgefield Road
For all intents and purposes, this is the second map. Much like Tanglewood, Edgefield is small and easily manageable, but it does have more floors than its predecessor.
10 Ridgeview Court
Another pretty small location. Ridgeview Court also has three floors, as well as a ridiculously huge garage. Seriously, who needs a garage that big? In fact, a lot of the rooms in this home are pretty spacious. Someone’s doing well for themselves!
13 Willow Street
It kind of feels like we’re just doing a tour of all these lovely houses as we search for the Cursed Possession item. Maybe we’re property hunting. Who knows? Anyway, Willow Street is the last of the suburban homes before we move on. You’ll soon miss the comfort of residential streets.
Bleasdale Farmhouse
For something a little more rustic, Bleasdale Farmhouse is a pretty home for the country bumpkin inside all of us. It’s also the first map we’ve looked at that has an attic, which in no way increases the creepy factor at all.
Grafton Farmhouse
A lovely little getaway for those who are tired of the hustle and bustle of city living. If you don’t mind the abject terror caused by hauntings, of course. Grafton is similar to Bleasdale in terms of style, but is somewhat smaller. It also only has two floors, which does make things easier.
Camp Woodwind
Our first exterior location (two in total – both campsites). Camp Woodwind is one of the newest maps inPhasmophobia. As such, I’m not overly familiar with this one, so bear with if I do get us a bit lost.
Maple Lodge Campsite
Now we’re getting into the big leagues. This is the first medium-sized map we’ve encountered. It also had its layout changed in the big update. Actually, thinking about it, Camp Woodwind is more in-line with what Maple Lodge sort of looked like. Anyway…
Prison
Definitely one of the more intimidating maps, especially if you’replayingPhasmophobiaon your own. It isn’t as massive as the next two locations (still pretty big, though), and it is a fairly simple layout. Still…a haunted prison? Who’d want that?NOTE: All Cursed Possession items are within the main entranceway, which is very gracious of the developer.
Brownstone High School
We’re in the big leagues now. This is one of two of the game’s biggest maps. Its sheer size and creepy, abandoned vibe makes this one way more intimidating than the Prison. And seeing that gymnasium just brings back awful, awful memories.NOTE: Much like the Prison, the Cursed items are within a small radius to make them easier to find.
Sunny Meadows Mental Institution
If you thought Brownstone was pretty intense, that’s nothing compared to Sunny Meadows, the abandoned mental institution that’s been lifted from so many horror movies. It should be said that this section also covers the smaller, “restricted” version of the map. In fact, all the Cursed Possession items will be near or in the chapel.
Point Hope
Point Hope is the new map that came rolling out withPhasmophobia‘s Eventide update. It’s something that was being teased by the developer for some time. One of the key things about this particular location is its sense of verticality. Despite not having that many rooms, the fact that the lighthouse stretches up ten floors can feel daunting at first. Despite being brand-new, it still has all the Cursed Possession items, and they are in the following places:
