In Phasmophobia’s limited-time Cursed Hollow event, ghost hunters face more than just the usual paranormal threats. A trickster known as the Forest Spirit has invaded the game, bringing along a wave of eerie ambiance—and a group of elusive companions known as Forest Minions. These mystical rabbit-like entities are hidden across various haunted maps, and uncovering them plays a major role in both event progression and unlocking exclusive rewards.

Whether you’re here for the seasonal content or aiming to complete the event challenges, this guide breaks down everything you need to know about finding Forest Minions, what tools you’ll need, which maps to explore, and how to maximize your points.

🐾 What Are Forest Minions in Phasmophobia?

Introduced during the Cursed Hollow event (April 17 – May 7, 2025), Forest Minions are ghostly little followers of the Forest Spirit, a bunny-like supernatural figure causing playful chaos across haunted maps. These creatures hide inside egg nests and only reveal themselves through specific methods.

Each minion you discover contributes to your event progression, rewarding you with cosmetics, trophies, and event badges. More than just collectibles, they change the dynamic of your investigation—sometimes helping, other times triggering new challenges when discovered.

🔍 How to Find Forest Minions – Step-by-Step

Locating Forest Minions isn’t as simple as pointing your flashlight at a glowing object. Here’s what you need to do:

✅ Step 1: Choose the Right Map

Every day, a new set of haunted maps is marked with nest icons on the contract screen. These maps are the only ones where the Forest Spirit and its minions appear.

The rotation includes these nine maps:

• 6 Tanglewood Drive (Small)

• 10 Ridgeview Court (Small)

• 13 Willow Street (Small)

• 42 Edgefield Road (Medium)

• Bleasdale Farmhouse (Small)

• Grafton Farmhouse (Small)

• Camp Woodwind (Small)

• Maple Lodge Campsite (Medium)

• Point Hope (Medium)

💡 Tip: These maps rotate daily—check back often to find them all.

✅ Step 2: Bring the Right Gear

To reveal the Forest Minions, you’ll need:

• D.O.T.S. Projector (Tier I, II, or III) – Essential for revealing minions

• Flashlight – Optional but helpful in dark zones

• Sanity Pills – Optional for mitigating side effects

Forest Minions cannot be seen with the naked eye—they only appear when exposed to the light from a D.O.T.S. Projector.

✅ Step 3: Search for Visual & Audio Cues

Once on the map, look for signs that indicate a nest location:

• Twigs scattered around

• Broken egg shells

• Glowing green jars with flickering bugs nearby

When you spot one, shine your D.O.T.S. Projector directly at it. If a minion is hiding there, it will briefly appear, hop away, and vanish. You may also hear whispering or light chattering, signaling their presence.

✅ Step 4: Monitor Sanity and Prepare for Consequences

Some Forest Minions may react unexpectedly once found. The Forest Spirit might:

• Boost your speed briefly

• Weaken your flashlight

• Decrease your sanity

• Spawn additional ghostly events

Bringing Sanity Pills can help stabilize your status, especially in medium or high-activity maps.

🎁 What Are the Rewards for Collecting Forest Minions?

Each Forest Minion you discover grants 2 Event Points, contributing to Personal and Community Milestones.

Community Rewards:

• Cursed Hollow Event Badge

• Event ID Card

• Trophy (3 Upgrade Levels)

Personal Rewards:

• Foil Event Card

• Trophy Upgrades

• Points toward your event progress

💡 Bonus Tip: Identifying the ghost adds +10 Points, and optional objectives grant +3 Points each. If you’re aiming to complete your rewards track, make sure to play strategically and aim for full investigation completion.

📈 Track Your Progress

Progress is visible under “Easter Event Team Point” on the contract screen. You’ll also find a Community Event Board tracking total collected minions and shared milestones.

This system helps even casual players feel rewarded while encouraging cooperation among friends and solo hunters alike.
