All Ghost movement speeds in Phasmophobia

Did you know the ghosts in Phasmophobia can have different speeds? The mechanics around how fast some ghosts move can be conditional and varied and more in-depth than you might think. Understanding them may help you identify some ghost types ahead of Evidence and best know how to stop yourself from being killed. Here’s all Ghost movement speeds in Phasmophobia.

By default, most ghosts have a base speed of 1.7 meters per second. For context, the player speed is 1.6 meters per second, or three meters when sprinting. If a ghost has an active Line of Sight on a player, the base speed gradually increases up to 1.65 times its speed. That means most ghosts have a maximum speed of about 2.5 meters per second. In other words, much faster than player walking speed, and too fast. And it takes only 13 seconds to reach maximum speed if it doesn’t lose sight on you. Meanwhile it’s an entire 65 seconds to fall back to base speed.
