It appears that some of the maps in Phasmophobia may be too haunted to save, as one player discovered when the crucifix that was supposed to save them from a ghost hunt tried to escape. Phasmophobia was released in September 2020 and took the world by storm after groups of friends realized how fun and quirky the title can be with some of its infamous flaws. Since then, fans have continued to find silly things that make the game so engaging, including the ghost hunting items that seemingly take on a life of their own.
In a recent Reddit post by ozarkthefloofa short eight second video it shows a crucifix sliding out of the house and almost completely out of the door, almost as if it is trying to escape the ghost itself. The crucifix in Phasmophobia is used to stop a ghost from being hunted, which gives players time to escape the unruly hands of fate and check their sanity levels if necessary. This time, it seemed that even the item needed to ward off angry spirits thought it was a good idea to leave.
A ghost so strong that even the crucifix gave up on phasmophobia
"No... I'm out!"
The comments in the thread are hilarious, as Aggressive-River-946 states, "“Alright, it's 5pm, my work here is done, good luck, Dan!”" in reference to the crucifix running towards him. A passing commentator ShreddedDaphy mentions that they took a photo of the crucifix as it moved and it was told as an encounter with a ghost, which would make sense if it was the ghost who tampered with the equipment, just like they do with the book.
The fact that the crucifix not only moves but also appears to be heading towards the door makes this post even funnier. Some ghosts are very powerful Phasmophobiaand maybe this time the equipment decided this house couldn't be saved of the evil that hid within. A comment from s1eepyyy_ it says, "nah, this is too haunted for me, good luck", which agrees that perhaps this type of ghost is too scary for even the crucifix to help.
Our Take: Phasmophobia is full of silly things that make the title great
From shaking VooDoo dolls to hunting that scares fans, the game keeps us guessing
Phasmophobia It's a title I could play with friends over and over again. Cursed objects are an explosive move when deciding to trap a friend inside the house and use one next to the door to watch them get hunted down instantly. Other fans may agree that the game itself can also be scary when played alone, as Chizz-Dippler shows how easy it is to panic when encountering ghosts. Other Reddit post takes an interesting look at what a homeowner might think when they stumble upon a body on the floor surrounded by ghost hunting equipment after an unsuccessful run.
Whichever way fans choose to play, alone or with a squad of Ghostbusters, Phasmophobia It has some quirks and flaws that make the title what it is. Even though some of them can be a little scary, like his crucifix making a daring escape, the hilarious strands of wild things happening never fail to amaze me.
