How to Identify Ghosts in Demonology – All Ghost and Evidence Types

Unmasking the Elusive Ghosts of Demonology: A Comprehensive Guide

Demonology's ghosts are notoriously difficult to pinpoint, leaving minimal traces. This guide helps you master ghost identification within the game.

Ghost identification relies on your in-game journal's evidence page. This page tracks your findings. By selecting evidence types, you progressively narrow down the possibilities until only one ghost type remains. Incorrect evidence can be deselected.

The table below details each ghost type, its associated evidence, strengths, weaknesses, and additional notes:

Evidence Collection:

Each ghost leaves three distinct traces. Use the correct equipment to gather evidence:

• Laser Projector: Detects ghosts as silhouettes.
• Handprints: Blacklight reveals fingerprints/handprints/footprints.
• Spirit Box: Interact to receive responses (may require multiple attempts).
• EMF Level 5: EMF Reader; all ghosts affect it, but only some fully illuminate it.
• Ghost Orb: Video Camera captures ghostly orbs.
• Freezing Temps: Thermometer detects significant temperature drops.
• Ghost Writing: Spirit Book records ghostly writings.

Remember to meticulously record your findings in your journal, eliminating non-matching evidence to efficiently identify the ghost. For more Roblox guides, visit the Escapist's Roblox guides hub.
