The Eventide update brought a ton of optimization changes and a new map to Phasmophobia, but there’s also a brand new Ferryman of the Drowned puzzle you can solve on Point Hope Lighthouse for some cool cosmetics.
Point Hope Lighthouse has a ton of little Easter Eggs to find, like the ‘Six Fingers’ bottle of whiskey, but the Ferryman of the Drowned puzzle is one of the more complex ones to solve. Once you do, though, you can get a brand new ID Card and title.
How to solve Ferryman of the Drowned puzzle
Ferryman of the Drowned has to be solved on Point Hope Lighthouse in Phasmophobia, and you have to complete six steps to unlock the reward at the end.
Step 1: Play some pool
The first step is to head to the game room on the fourth floor and look for three pictures hanging on the wall of blue, green, and red-colored shells. They’re the first clue and lead to the first step of the puzzle.

Find the pool table in this room and then look for the corresponding colored balls. You’re specifically looking for:
- The striped green ball
- The striped blue ball
- The solid red ball
Throw them in any hole in the pool table in this order – the same order of the pictures on the wall from left to right – and you should hear a clicking sound.
Look inside the hole in the pool table, toward the back of the room, to find a key. Pick it up and head upstairs for your next step.
Step 2: Find the gear
The next step to completing the puzzle is to find the gear on the eighth floor. You’ll know you’re in the right room when you see a bunch of workbenches and woodworking projects.

The gear you need can be found on the left side of the workbench where the Monkey Paw usually is. It’s in the dark so make sure you have a torch or headset to spot it. Pick up the gear, and you’re ready for Step 3.
Step 3: Unlock the box & insert the gear
The box that the key unlocks can be found on the ninth floor, where a bunch of gas canisters, boxes, and other gears are located.

When you come up the staircase, turn right immediately and look for a large box with a locked door. Unlock the door with the key, and insert the gear in the empty cog.
Step 4: Ring the bell
Once you’ve inserted the gear, you’ll have time to run downstairs and outside to the front of Point Hope. Look for the bell which is placed right at the end of the walkway you come through from the van.

Ring the bell three times and you should hear a fire sound cue. This is how you know you’ve successfully completed this step.
Step 5: Find the cave
Once you’ve rung the bell, run straight to the very top of the Lighthouse. Look down from the ledge and you’ll see a cave lit up by fire (this is what the sound cue was when you rang the bell).

Now, you’ll see your last clue in this puzzle, some rocks spelling out ‘UV.’
Step 6: Use your UV
The last step in the Ferryman of the Drowned puzzle is to shine UV into the Lighthouse light. Get close and shine as long as you need to until the entire light turns purple.

Once the color has changed, it’ll shine UV light all around the sky and you’ll see a ton of ghosts floating around the Lighthouse. Once you get this event, you have completed the puzzle and will receive the rewards once the contract has been completed.
Rewards
For completing the Ferryman of the Drowned puzzle in Phasmophobia, you’ll get a new ID Card, title, and Player Badge.
The ID Card and Player Icon have a nautical-spirit theme, while the title you get is “Ferryman of the Drowned.” Unlike the Easter event, it doesn’t look like you get a trophy for this one, but we’ll let you know if that changes at any point.
