Plan your next Abnormality session

Our independent guide helps you deepen your understanding of Abnormality’s core systems without relying on undocumented tricks. By focusing on documented mechanics—investigation flow, ghost diversity, night‑vision usage, character appearance, and the upcoming Exorcism mode—you can refine strategies and enjoy a more controlled horror experience.

01 / THE GUIDE

Map Familiarization

Spend a few minutes walking each new location during daylight. Note entry points, hidden story objects, and potential escape routes; this knowledge reduces panic when night‑vision activates.

  • Observe environmental cues early to locate hidden story clues.
  • Balance sprinting with careful listening to maximize evidence collection.

02 / THE GUIDE

Ghost Trait Comparison

Create a quick reference sheet of observed ghost behaviours (speed, aggression, hunt length) and match them against the known list of thirty types to narrow possibilities.

  • Compare observed ghost behaviour with known traits to narrow the type quickly.
  • Note hidden traits during early encounters for later reference.

03 / THE GUIDE

Night‑Vision Positioning

Practice moving with night vision on a low‑light map segment. Observe how visibility changes with night vision and adjust your sprint timing accordingly.

  • Save night vision for when darkness takes over, as it is your last resort.
  • Sprint only when needed, since movement and quick decisions matter during chases.

04 / THE GUIDE

Customization Impact Review

Experiment with different clothing colors and silhouettes in a lobby. Record whether certain choices improve teammate visibility during fast chases.

  • Use visual cues from teammates’ outfits to coordinate roles during hunts.
  • Experiment with different clothing colors to improve visibility in dark areas.

05 / THE GUIDE

Exorcism Mode Preparation

Review Investigation reports for each location’s ghost backstory. Use these notes to anticipate the trauma you may need to uncover in Exorcism mode.

  • Study the ghost’s backstory in Investigation to prepare for the trauma you may need to uncover in Exorcism.
  • Stay close to teammates to share information quickly during intense moments.
