"Mastering the Haunted Mirror in Phasmophobia: A Guide"

If you're delving into the spectral world of *Phasmophobia* and aiming to track down those elusive ghosts, you might want to consider using Cursed Possessions. Among these, the Haunted Mirror stands out as a particularly useful tool, albeit one that requires a bit of courage to wield. Here’s a detailed guide on how to make the most of the Haunted Mirror, and a quick overview of what Cursed Objects are in the game.

How to Use Haunted Mirror in Phasmophobia

The Haunted Mirror is often considered one of the safer Cursed Objects in *Phasmophobia*. Its consistent utility across various game updates makes it a must-try when you encounter it during your ghost hunts. The Haunted Mirror provides a panoramic view of the ghost's current favorite room on the map, which can significantly speed up your investigation and help you set up your equipment before things get too spooky.

You’ll typically find the Haunted Mirror either hanging on a wall, like at 6 Tanglewood Drive, or lying on the floor in its designated spot. Remember, while Cursed Objects always spawn in the same location on each map, the type of object that appears is randomized.

To use the Haunted Mirror, simply pick it up and use the appropriate button on your mouse or controller to hold it up. The mirror will then show you a reflection of the ghost’s preferred room. Keep in mind, if you're playing on Professional difficulty or higher, the ghost might move to a different area after some time.

However, be cautious; staring into the Haunted Mirror for too long will drain your sanity. If you hold it up until the end, the mirror will shatter, triggering a Cursed Hunt right where you stand. It’s wise to use it when your sanity is high and to quickly understand what you’re seeing in the reflection.

What are Cursed Objects (Possessions) in Phasmophobia?

In *Phasmophobia*, Cursed Possessions, often referred to as "Cursed Objects," are special items that randomly spawn on any map, depending on the difficulty settings or if you're in Challenge Mode. Unlike standard equipment, which helps you locate and gather evidence of ghost activity with minimal risk, Cursed Objects offer shortcuts to manipulate ghost behavior at a much higher risk to your character.

The safety of using these objects varies; some are less dangerous than others. It's up to you and your team to decide whether to engage with them, as there's no penalty for opting out. Typically, only one Cursed Possession will appear per contract, unless modified in Custom settings.

There are seven different Cursed Objects in the game:

• Summoning Circle
• Haunted Mirror
• Voodoo Doll
• Music Box
• Tarot Cards
• Ouija Board
• Monkey Paw
