In the world of Demonology, ghosts are notoriously elusive, leaving behind minimal traces. This guide will help you master the art of ghost identification. The key lies in effectively utilizing your in-game journal.
How to Identify Ghosts in Demonology
Your journal's evidence page is your primary tool. It tracks your findings, allowing you to systematically eliminate possibilities until you pinpoint the ghost type. Clicking an evidence type narrows down the options; click again to remove it if you find it's not present.

How to Collect Evidence in Demonology
Each ghost leaves three distinct pieces of evidence. Use the appropriate equipment to collect them:
- Laser Projector: Reveals ghosts as faint silhouettes.
- Handprints: Use a blacklight to find fingerprints or footprints.
- Spirit Box: Engage the spirit box in conversation; ghosts may respond intermittently.
- EMF Level 5: An EMF reader will register a ghost's presence; a full lamp illumination indicates a specific ghost type.
- Ghost Orb: A video camera captures ghosts as small white orbs.
- Freezing Temps: A thermometer detects significant temperature drops.
- Ghost Writing: A spirit book may be written on by the ghost.
