Finding a Ghost Orb in Phasmophobia

The ghost orb is one of the various pieces of evidence you can discover in Phasmophobia to try to figure out the ghost type. It requires the use of the video camera, and you’ll need to place it in the correct spot in the ghost room in order to see it.

First things first: locate the ghost room with a tool like the EMF reader or the thermometer. Once you’ve found it, set up the video camera in a corner of the room, or anywhere that gives you a good view of the entire room.

Depending on which map you’re playing on and where the ghost room is, this can be a bit tricky. You’ll want to put the camera on a higher place like a tabletop or dresser. You won’t necessarily be able to see the entire room depending on the layout, so if you don’t see the ghost orb at first, you might have to adjust the angle.

Once you’ve placed the camera, make sure to turn it on and check that the light is green, then turn off the lights in the ghost room and head back to the van. At the computer, turn on night vision on the camera by clicking on the keyboard then check the footage.

The ghost orb looks like a small green laser pointer dot just floating on the screen, and it’ll disappear after a few seconds before reappearing again. If the orb doesn’t show up after about 15 to 20 seconds, it’s possible that the ghost orb isn’t available as evidence, or your camera is positioned wrongly.

In this case, you’ll want to try repositioning the camera to get another angle in the room.

That’s all you need to know about how to find the ghost orb in Phasmophobia. Be sure to search for Twinfinite for more tips and information on the game.
