This year’s installment of Phasmophobia’s Winter’s Jest event has arrived, bringing with it plenty of festive fun to enjoy. One of the key tasks you need to tackle in this event is finding and opening Krampus boxes.
All maps you can explore are quite vast and detailed, even the smaller ones, which can make finding these boxes rather tricky. It’s much easier once you know where to look and how they work, though, so here’s how to find and open Winter’s Jest Krampus boxes in Phasmophobia.
Where to find Krampus boxes in Phasmophobia

Krampus jack-in-the-boxes can be found just about anywhere around all active event maps in Phasmophobia. All of the maps that may have Krampus boxes are as follows.
- 10 Ridgeview Court
- 6 Tanglewood Drive
- 13 Willow Street
- 42 Edgefield Road
- Camp Woodwind
- Bleasdale Farmhouse
- Grafton Farmhouse
- Maple Lodge Campsite
- Point Hope
- Nells Diner
Each day, Krampus boxes will only spawn at four of these locations. You can tell which ones have them by checking the map board for all areas marked with a festive present icon.
How to open Krampus boxes in Phasmophobia
You can open Krampus boxes by simply approaching them and selecting the Interact button while looking at them. This is the same button you use to perform most actions while ghost hunting.
On PC, it’s left click by default, but it varies by platform or may have been changed if you switched your controls around. You can check when it is for you by opening the Journal, selecting Settings, switching over to the Controls tab, and locating the button next to the Interact option. If you want to change it, you can also do that from this page.
