Kormos is a recently added ghost in Phasmophobia, appearing with the Alan Wake event, and it’s a particularly interesting type of ghost. If you’re finding Kormos scary and want to learn how to hunt it effectively on any difficulty – even when trying to find it with no evidence – we have a guide to help.

Learn how to spot a Kormos, even when your equipment fails. We’ll cover identifying its signs, recognizing its vulnerabilities, and what to do when you have no tools available – knowledge that could be critical for your survival. Read on to find out more!

All Kormos Evidence in Phasmophobia

  • Ghost Orb
  • Spirit Box
  • Ultraviolet

To investigate the Kormos, you’ll need a camera with night vision to find Ghost Orbs. You’ll also need to confirm its presence using a Spirit Box and find a handprint with a UV light.

Kormos creatures can sometimes appear identical to Mimics, so it’s crucial to understand their specific traits – see the strengths and weaknesses listed below to tell them apart. A helpful way to confirm you’re dealing with a Kormos is to check if it has freezing temperatures!

All Kormos Strengths, Weaknesses, and No Evidence Tells in Phasmophobia

Okay, so as a fan, here’s what I’ve figured out about when that creepy Kormos starts chasing you. Usually, it’ll come after you when your sanity drops to around 50%. But, and this is important, if you sprint into the same room as it, it’ll start hunting you even if you still have 70% sanity! Knowing this is key, because there are a few things you need to be aware of when it does decide to hunt you down…

  • Kormos is completely blind, so line-of-sight means nothing.
  • Kormos relies on sound, so it can detect your movement from very far away.

If you’re trying to figure out if a ghost is a Kormos during a no-evidence run, the easiest way to check is during a hunt. Simply stand perfectly still and quiet in a hallway, with Incense ready to use. If the ghost targets you, it’s not a Kormos. But, if it walks right past without noticing you, then it is a Kormos!

Generally, ghosts don’t notice if you move slowly while hiding. However, it’s crucial to stay completely still when facing the Kormos. If the Kormos sees you, it will quickly increase its speed to 2.21 meters per second, and can even reach a top speed of 3.65 meters per second. Here’s how far away the Kormos can detect you:

Movement Detection Range
Crouch Walking 10 meters
Standing Walking 15 meters
Sprinting 30 meters
