The "Nightmare" difficulty is a nice addition to Phasmophobia, but we got it, that some ghosts are too difficult to identify with just two pieces of evidence.

– Poltergeist. Ghost, who likes to throw things, beware!

– Jinn. These ghosts love to haunt, hide, before they see you
– Hunt. The cold has amplified these ghosts so much, that they start to appear.

– They are. Many more manifestations are reported in new reports, possibly, these ghosts like the fear in people's eyes.
