The Easter event of 2025, Cursed Hollow, has officially launched in Phasmophobia and will run until approximately May 8. This seasonal update introduces new challenges, rewards, and gameplay mechanics. In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to complete the event, what tasks you need to accomplish, which maps are available, and the rewards waiting for you.

Main Objectives of the Event

To fully complete the Cursed Hollow event, players must accomplish several key tasks:

1. Identifying the Ghost Type In classic Phasmophobia style, you’ll need to collect three pieces of evidence using your hunting equipment (EMF, thermometer, cameras, etc.) and correctly determine the ghost type haunting the location.

2. Completing Additional Objectives Each contract includes three optional tasks—such as calming the ghost with incense, taking a photo of it, or witnessing paranormal activity. Completing these objectives grants bonus event points.

3. Discovering Forest Minions On each special event map, nests made of branches can be found containing Easter eggs. Once you locate a nest, place a DOTS projector near it to reveal a Forest Minion. Be careful, though—interacting with them can trigger heightened ghost activity or even a hunt.

Maps Featured in the Event

The Cursed Hollow event includes 9 maps. Only a few are active each day, marked with a Minion Nest icon on the contract board. Only successful runs on currently active event maps count toward progress.

List of possible maps:

• 13 Willow Street

• 42 Edgefield Road
• 10 Ridgeview Court

Event Rewards

The event offers both personal and community-wide rewards based on your contributions and collective efforts.

• Upgradable trophy (based on the number of successful runs)

Community Rewards:

• Unique player badge
• Additional cosmetics
• Visual trophy upgrades

Once the event conditions are met, rewards are automatically added to your player profile upon logging into the game.

Tips for Completing the Event

• Play as a team – This speeds up exploration, makes ghost identification easier, and helps with finding nests.
• Search carefully – Minion nests can be well-hidden behind furniture, inside closets, or behind doors.
• Use DOTS projectors wisely – They’re essential for detecting Minions and also needed for identifying certain ghost types.
• Prepare for consequences – Interacting with Minions often triggers aggressive ghost behavior, so always have an escape plan.

Cursed Hollow isn’t just a festive celebration—it’s a chance to explore new mechanics in familiar ghost-hunting gameplay. Gather your team, explore the maps, uncover the secrets of the nests, and earn exclusive rewards. Don’t miss your chance before May 8!
