How to Get Rid of Ghosts in Animal Hospital Roblox
To get rid of a Ghost in Animal Hospital, first reveal it by spraying the Fire Extinguisher around the area where it is hiding — you do not need to see it clearly first. Once its physical form appears, hit it with the Taser or the Gun; a revealed Ghost usually falls in a single successful hit, and the Taser can also restore a small amount of Sanity. Ghosts drain about 2 Sanity per second while near you, so act as soon as you see the Ghostly Presence warning, doors opening by themselves, or distorted wind-like sounds.
Step-by-Step
- Watch for warning signs. Doors opening by themselves, a distorted wind-like sound, the -2 Ghostly Presence Sanity message, or a briefly flickering figure all mean a Ghost is near.
- Grab the Fire Extinguisher. It unlocks free at Shift 3 (wall case by check-in or right of the Supplies Shop); the Firefighter class starts with one that recharges while held.
- Spray the area. Spray the floor, doorway, and corridor where you suspect the Ghost. The extinguisher does not finish the Ghost, but it forces the physical form to appear.
- Attack once revealed. Switch to the Taser (defeats the Ghost and may restore Sanity) or the Gun (fast removal). One solid hit usually ends a revealed Ghost.
- Keep doors closed. Close every door after leaving a room; an open door you did not open means a Ghost or Anomaly passed through, which makes tracking far easier.
Why do Ghosts appear?
Usually after a patient dies — wrong medicine, untreated in time, a mishandled emergency, or another Anomaly killing the patient. Once the patient dies, their spirit may roam the hospital and attack staff.
Taser or Gun?
The Taser is better when your Sanity is already low because it can restore a little. The Gun is for instant removal but may require Robux or a floor pickup. Both remove a revealed Ghost.
Can I prevent Ghosts?
Prevent patient deaths by treating correctly and rejecting Anomalies at the desk with the Shutters. Fewer deaths means fewer Ghosts.
Note on the Fire Extinguisher tactic
Some community write-ups call the fire tactic contested — fire may only briefly knock a Ghost down rather than reveal it on every build. The current reliable method reported by guides is spray-to-reveal, then finish with the Taser or Gun.
Location / Conditions
- Ghosts usually appear after a patient dies — from wrong medicine, an untreated case, a mishandled emergency, or another Anomaly killing the patient.
- The Fire Extinguisher unlocks free at Shift 3 (wall case by check-in or right of the Supplies Shop); the Firefighter class starts with one.
Common Mistakes
- Waiting until Sanity is near zero before dealing with the Ghost.
- Assuming the Fire Extinguisher kills the Ghost — it only reveals it; you still need the Taser or Gun.
- Leaving doors open, which makes it hard to tell where the Ghost moved.
- Ignoring the warning signs (open doors, distorted sound, Ghostly Presence text).
Not Working?
- Can't see the Ghost — spray the floor, doorway, and corridor where you suspect it; the form appears even if you could not see it.
- Taser or Gun not available — the wall Taser unlocks free after Shift 3; a Gun can appear on the check-in floor or come from Secret Agent.
- Sanity draining fast — drink Coffee and remove the Ghost before treating more patients.
- Ghost keeps coming back — close every door after leaving a room; an open door you did not open means it passed through.
