Ghost
A roaming ghost that saps your sanity the closer it gets — use a weapon to deal with it.
Overview
Ghosts drift through the hospital rather than queuing at the desk. You do not need to admit one for it to become a problem — simply being near a ghost slowly bleeds your sanity, and it will drift toward you over time.
Because they are mobile, ghosts are a background threat that builds up while you are focused on check-in or treatment. Ignoring one for too long lets your sanity quietly slide.
Keep your distance where you can, and use a taser or gun to drive off a ghost that closes in on you. Dealing with it promptly is cheaper than letting the drain stack up.
How to spot the Ghost anomaly
A spectral figure that wanders the hospital and drains your sanity as it gets close.
Pro tips
- Handle a ghost early — the sanity drain is slow but constant and adds up over a shift.
- Keep a weapon accessible so you are not caught unarmed when one drifts in.
How to handle it
Drive it off with a taser or gun.
- Ignoring a distant ghost until it is right on top of you and your sanity is already low.
