Phasmophobia New Ghost: What's the New Ghost Based On?

Phasmophobia new ghost was added to the game as part of "Additions for Halloween" included in their third post-launch update. Phasmophobia is an indie four-player co-op psychological horror game developed by Kinetic Games. Released in early access on Sept. 18 for PC with crossplay VR support, Phasmophobia players pose as a team of paranormal investigators exploring haunted locations filled with ghosts and paranormal activity. There are more than 12 ghosts that players can run into.

Phasmophobia New Ghost: What's the New Ghost Based On?

The latest spirit haunting the Phasmophobia universe is quite distinct from its peers. The ghost reminds fans of Sadako Yamamura (Japanese version) or Samara Morgan, the central antagonist of The Ring movie series. As seen in multiple streams, it is spotted either when standing still or crawling on the ceiling in its white dress. It does not have bloody, ugly faces or white mist-ish appearance like any other existing ghosts. For some players, it feels creepier to spot crawling ghosts compared to jump scare ghosts as a means of sudden payoff to a long period of suspense.
