Tarot Cards rank among the riskiest Cursed Possessions in *Phasmophobia*, yet they can also deliver some of the most potent benefits if luck is on your side. When you encounter Tarot Cards during a contract, it's wise to use them in a safe spot on the map, such as near a hiding place or the entrance. This precaution is crucial because drawing a dangerous card like Death could trigger a Cursed Hunt, and being near an escape route can be a lifesaver.

Each Tarot Card possesses a unique ability that activates immediately upon drawing. However, you might occasionally draw The Fool, which acts like a Joker and has no effect. You can draw up to 10 cards from the deck without any sanity drain, and it's possible to draw duplicates, each with the same effect.

Here's a detailed look at the 10 different cards you might encounter:

What are Cursed Objects (Possessions) in Phasmophobia?

Cursed Possessions, often referred to as "Cursed Objects," are unique items in *Phasmophobia* that appear randomly on any contract map, influenced by difficulty settings or if you're tackling Challenge Mode. Unlike regular loadout equipment, which helps you locate the ghost and gather evidence with minimal risk, Cursed Objects serve as high-risk shortcuts to manipulate the ghost's behavior.

The safety of using these objects varies based on their abilities, and it's up to you and your team to decide whether to engage with them. There's no penalty for avoiding them, nor is there a direct reward for using them. Each contract features only one Cursed Possession, unless modified in Custom settings, and each type consistently spawns in the same location. For instance, the Voodoo Doll always appears in the Garage at 6 Tanglewood Drive.

The game includes seven different Cursed Objects:

• Haunted Mirror
• Voodoo Doll
• Music Box
• Tarot Cards
• Ouija Board
• Monkey Paw
• Summoning Circle
