Targets one specific player until they are killed, ignoring others. Its hunt threshold is based on its target's sanity. A distinctive screech can be heard when using the Parabolic Microphone.

All of the possible ghost types you could be encountering, which are filtered based on the evidence you've marked.
Targets one specific player until they are killed, ignoring others. Its hunt threshold is based on its target's sanity. A distinctive screech can be heard when using the Parabolic Microphone.
Has a rare chance to hunt at any time, regardless of the average sanity. There is less time between hunts (20s). Smudging will prevent hunts for less time (60s). Crucifixes have an increased effective range.
Always knows player locations, making hiding useless during hunts. Fast when isolated, but greatly slows down when close to a player (0.4m/s). Kiting this ghost is the best method to survive a hunt. Can produce a unique Spirit Box response.
Appears in D.O.T.S. only when viewed through a video camera and no players are in the same room as it. Cannot change its favorite room, and is less likely to wander.
During a hunt, it has a higher speed if a target it can see is far away (2.5m/s). Its ability will deduct nearby players' sanity (25%). Turning off the fuse box will prevent it from using its ability. Cannot turn off the fuse box.
Hunts at higher sanity thresholds in the dark (60%), and lower sanity thresholds in the light (40%). Turns off lights and breaks lightbulbs more often. Remains in unlit rooms more often.
Mimics other ghost types for a brief period of time before mimicking to a new ghost type. Includes Ghost Orbs as fourth false evidence. Can mimic evidence properties if the ghost it is mimicking shares the evidence. For example, the Obake's fingerprints.
Higher speed depending on how low the average sanity is (up to 2.25m/s). Can curse players, making them lose sanity twice as fast, when obtaining a Spirit Box response or by hearing ghost sounds through the Parabolic Microphone. Consuming sanity pills removes the curse. Smudge Sticks blind the ghost for longer during hunts.
Has quieter footsteps and vocalizations during hunts that can only be heard when closer to the ghost (12m). When using a Parabolic Microphone, it produces paranormal sounds more frequently.
Fingerprints disappear faster than other ghost types. Does not always leave fingerprints (75%), and can leave unique fingerprints (~17%). It can use its ability to half the lifespan of fingerprints on the map. During hunts, it has a 6.66% chance each time it flickers to shapeshift into a different ghost model for the duration of that flicker, but it is guaranteed to happen at least once per hunt.
More active when people are nearby. Cannot produce “air ball” Ghost Events. Stays visible for longer during hunts.
Chance to hunt when blowing out flames. Presence of flames prevents the ghost from hunting naturally (4m). Blows out flames more often than other ghost types. Every third flame will cause it to attempt to initiate a hunt, which can be blocked by a crucifix or more flames.
Additional sanity drain from players within its line-of-sight during manifestations. Can roam towards random players. Taking a picture of the Phantom renders it temporarily invisible during Ghost Events. While hunting, the ghost will be invisible in photos and will be visible for less time.
Its ability can throw multiple objects at once with great force. Witnessing its ability will drain the player's sanity, depending on the amount of objects thrown. During a hunt, it opens more doors and throws everything it comes across. Ineffective in empty rooms with no objects to throw.
Being near active electronics boost its speed during hunts and allow it to hunt at higher sanity thresholds. The distance depends on the map size (6m - 10m). Disrupts electronics from further away when manifesting (15m).
During a hunt, travels very slowly (1m/s) until it has line-of-sight of a player (3m/s). This makes it crucial to hide as soon as possible when a hunt starts. When losing line-of-sight, it will keep its speed until reaching the last known position of the player it saw. The speed of the ghost gradually decreases after losing line-of-sight.
Harder to find due to it being less active. Prefers hissing and shadowy form Ghost Events. Generally unwilling to manifest in presence of players.
No special behavior, other than using Smudge Sticks while nearby it prevents the ghost from hunting for much longer (180s).
Becomes very active and fast (2.75m/s) the first time the player gets nearby. The more time players spend near it, the quieter and slower (1m/s) it becomes, and its hunt sanity threshold decreases.
It is actually one ghost, which behaves differently on a chance. Can hunt from and interact with things in a different place than expected. Can interact with the environment simultaneously.
Can teleport to players randomly when not hunting. Doesn't step in salt, and therefore cannot leave UV Footprints.
