What is the end goal of Phasmophobia?

The main goal of Phasmophobia is to work with your team as paranormal investigators to identify the type of ghost haunting a location by gathering three specific pieces of evidence, using various ghost-hunting tools like EMF readers, spirit boxes, and thermometers. Players complete contracts to earn money and experience, which allows them to buy better gear, while also completing optional objectives (like taking photos or capturing sounds) for bonus rewards and to level up. The challenge comes from managing your sanity and surviving encounters as the ghost becomes more aggressive, culminating in hunts where it can kill you.

What ghosts can hunt at 100% sanity?

In Phasmophobia, the Demon is the primary ghost that can hunt at 100% sanity by using its special ability, ignoring the normal sanity thresholds, although other ghosts like the Banshee (targeting one player) or Onryo (if provoked with fire) can also hunt at high individual sanity levels, while the Mimic might copy a Demon's behavior. The Demon's ability allows it to hunt at any sanity level, even when the average team sanity is high, often appearing as an early hunter.

What happens if you say the ghost's name in Phasmophobia?

Saying the ghost's name in Phasmophobia increases its activity level, similar to using other trigger phrases like "do something" or "give us a sign," making it more likely to interact or start a hunt, though the effect can vary and might not always feel significant, especially on easier difficulties or if the ghost is shy. It acts as a provocation, raising the chance for an event or hunt, but it doesn't "anger" it in a way that's always immediately obvious or consistent, sometimes just spiking activity briefly.
