To identify this ghost, certain tests can be done. Apart from this, you are provided with some types of equipment in the game that can be used to trace evidence of a ghost’s presence. An Onryo is a type of ghost in the game that is referred to as a ‘Wrathful Spirit’ seeking revenge. It is possible to trace this ghost by noticing the paranormal activities occurring in its presence. Here’s our guide that features steps to identify an Onryo in Phasmophobia.

    How to Identify an Onryo in Phasmophobia
    An Onryo seeks revenge by absorbing souls from the dying bodies. However, it should be noted that this ghost fears any kind of fire present in the surrounding. Being a ghost investigator in the game, follow these steps to identify an Onryo:

    • An Onryo fears the fire, may it be a smaller source like a lighter, or a comparatively bigger source like a candle.
    • Mostly, ghosts show their aggressive behavior when a Crucifix is placed in the room.
    • The most effective way to spot an Onryo is to place a Crucifix surrounded by some candles. The first aggressive thing a ghost does is burn the Crucifix.
    • However, when an Onryo hunts, it just blows all the candles in the room when they come in a 4-meter range.
      • If a Crucifix burns without the candles getting blown, then it is not an Onryo.
      • If the candles get blown up without the Crucifix getting burnt, then it is an Onryo for sure.
    • Another way to find evidence for the presence of an Onryo is by using a Spirit box. Grab the Spirit Box and keep asking Onryo about its presence. Getting a response immediately ensures the presence of it.
    • Spotting a Ghost Orb through a video feed like a night vision camera proves the presence of a ghost in the room. In addition, if your in-game character starts to breathe out cold air, then there’s also something paranormal going on in the room. Because a ghost’s presence reduces the temperature in the room.
    • So do the necessary tests after suspecting something paranormal to find out if that’s an Onryo.

    That’s how you identify an Onryo in Phasmophobia. If you found this article helpful, then make sure to check out our Spirit Box guide in Phasmophobia.
