How to Use Tarot Cards in Phasmophobia

In the thrilling world of *Phasmophobia*, Cursed Possessions offer both enticing rewards and perilous risks. Tarot Cards are a prime example, their potential benefits overshadowed by the uncertainty of their effects. This guide unravels the mysteries of using these enigmatic cards.

How to Use Tarot Cards in *Phasmophobia*

Tarot Cards are among the riskiest Cursed Possessions in Phasmophobia, but their potential rewards are equally significant. For safety, use them in a secure location, such as near a hiding spot or the entrance, providing an escape route should you draw an unfavorable card like Death.

Each card instantly activates upon use, revealing a unique effect. However, there's always a chance of drawing The Fool, a wildcard resulting in no effect. You can draw up to ten cards without impacting your sanity. Duplicate cards yield the same effect.

Ten distinct cards await within the deck:

Tarot Card	Effect	Draw Chance
The Tower	Doubles ghost activity for 20 seconds	20%
The Wheel of Fortune	Gains 25% sanity (green flame); loses 25% sanity (red flame)	20%
The Hermit	Confines the ghost to its favorite room for 1 minute (excluding hunts/events)	10%
The Sun	Fully restores sanity to 100%	5%
The Moon	Completely drains sanity to 0%	5%
The Fool	Mimics another card before becoming The Fool; no effect	17%
The Devil	Triggers a ghost event near the closest player	10%
Death	Triggers a 20-second extended Cursed Hunt; further draws are impossible during the hunt	10%
The High Priestess	Instantly revives a fallen teammate	2%
The Hanged Man	Instantly kills the user	1%

What are Cursed Objects (Possessions) in *Phasmophobia*?

Cursed Possessions, also known as Cursed Objects, are unique items randomly spawning in Phasmophobia contracts (depending on difficulty and Challenge Mode). Unlike standard equipment, which aids investigation with minimal risk, Cursed Objects offer gameplay manipulation at a much higher risk. Their use is entirely optional; no penalty exists for ignoring them.

Only one Cursed Possession spawns per contract (unless modified in Custom settings), each appearing in a fixed location. For example, the Voodoo Doll always spawns in the Garage at 6 Tanglewood Drive. Seven Cursed Objects exist: Haunted Mirror, Voodoo Doll, Music Box, Tarot Cards, Ouija Board, Monkey Paw, and Summoning Circle.
