About Midnight Ghost Hunt

Midnight Ghost Hunt pits two teams of four—Ghosts and Hunters—in a frantic hide‑and‑seek battle. Ghosts can possess furniture, turn invisible, and unleash telekinetic attacks, while Hunters wield hi‑tech gadgets to locate and capture them.

The game offers ten cursed maps, a witching‑hour phase that flips roles at midnight, dedicated servers with host migration, a Progression Tier with challenges, and partial controller support for Windows players.

01 / THE GUIDE

Ghost Abilities

Ghosts may conceal themselves inside ordinary objects such as chairs, lamps, or grandfather clocks, using these disguises to avoid Hunters. When unseen, they can trigger telekinetic bombardments that affect the environment around them.

Additional ghost perks let players increase weight, extend possession range, see nearby Hunters through walls, or mimic a Hunter’s appearance, giving each match a range of tactical options.

  • Experiment with different furniture types to discover which hide spots survive longer.
  • Try combining invisibility with the weight‑increase perk to make your possession harder to dislodge.

02 / THE GUIDE

Hunter Gadgets

Hunters select from a full range of hi‑tech tools designed to locate and capture Ghosts. Devices include the Spectrophone, Radar, Pathfinder, and Trap, while weapons range from a Spectral Cannon to sledgehammers and salt‑spewing shotguns.

Perks grant Hunters extra speed, health‑replenishing capabilities, or other boosts, allowing teams to tailor their load‑out for each map and match.

  • Pair detection gadgets like the Spectrophone with Traps for more reliable captures.
  • Use a speed perk when chasing a Ghost that has just triggered a telekinetic attack.

03 / THE GUIDE

Midnight Mayhem

When the in‑game clock reaches twelve, the witching hour begins. Ghosts become supercharged, gaining stronger abilities, while Hunters must survive a limited period of heightened danger.

This role reversal creates a tense final phase where Ghosts hunt Hunters, making timing and positioning crucial for both sides.

  • Save powerful Ghost perks for the witching hour to maximize impact.
  • Hunters should conserve health‑boosting perks for the final minutes.

04 / THE GUIDE

Map Variety

Midnight Ghost Hunt features ten distinct locations, including an abandoned theatre, an eerie mansion, and a cursed carnival. Each map provides unique tactical considerations and interactive items.

Knowing each map’s layout helps teams plan ambushes, escape routes, and optimal gadget placement for both Ghosts and Hunters.

  • Learn each map’s choke points to anticipate common Ghost hiding spots.
  • Use map‑specific objects for creative Ghost possessions.

05 / THE GUIDE

Online Features

The game supports dedicated servers and host migration, making match setup straightforward for Windows players. A Progression Tier and Challenge system add competitive depth beyond core matches.

Additional online features include Steam achievements, trading cards, and partial controller support, enhancing the multiplayer experience.

  • Try the Experimental Darkness mode for a fresh challenge.
  • Use host migration if the original host disconnects to keep the match alive.
