Where to find all ghosts in GTA Online
Ghosts have appeared around Los Santos in GTA Online with this week’s Halloween-themed update. The in-universe show, Ghosts Exposed, is back and paying for photos of the apparitions.
Our GTA Online Ghosts Exposed guide will tell where — and, just as importantly, when — you can find all 10 ghosts.
How to start the Ghosts Exposed challenge in GTA Online
When you log into GTA Online, you’ll (eventually) get an email on your phone from the Ghosts Exposed team.
There are 10 ghosts scattered around Los Santos. Luckily, they’re all down in the city itself, so you won’t be traipsing all over the map.
The trick, however, is that each ghost only appears for a specific one hour window — meaning two minutes of real-world time — each in-game day. That means you’ll only have two minutes to find the ghost, get your picture, and then travel to the next location.
Further, the final ghost only appears once you’ve taken pictures of the other nine. And all of that means you’re probably going to spend multiple in-game nights chasing these specters.
Where to find all 10 ghosts in GTA Online
The ghosts in GTA Online only appear at night from 19:00 to 06:00 on your phone’s clock. Each of the ghosts have a specific window of time they’ll appear, so if you miss them, you’ll have to wait another 48 minutes for the time to roll around again.
You’ll also notice (or quickly find out) that the ghost locations are a bit more than two minutes apart. Don’t rush it. It’s going to be a lengthy process.
You can track your progress by checking the Interaction Menu > All Collectibles > Collectibles > Ghosts Exposed.
Ghost 1 location (19:00 to 20:00)
Head to Hill Valley Church in Pacific Bluffs. The ghost will appear either on the south side of the church on the roof or above a grave on the north side of the church.
Ghost 2 location (20:00 to 21:00)
There’s a homeless encampment below the highway in Strawberry. Check the north side for a sofa where the ghost will appear.
Ghost 3 location (21:00 to 22:00)
Head over to El Burro Heights and look for the water tower. The ghost will appear either on top of the water tower or right above the memorial on the corner.
Ghost 4 location (22:00 to 23:00)
Head for the huge bridge called Miriam Turner Overpass. Head to the east side of the tallest support tower and look for this ghost on top.
Ghost 5 location (23:00 to 00:00)
You’ll find this ghost in the tower at Miguel Madrazo’s mansion.
Ghost 6 location (01:00 to 02:00)
You’ll find the next ghost in the Cypress Flats trainyard.
Ghost 7 location (02:00 to 03:00)
For the next ghost, head for the Rockford Hills Church. You’ll find it in one of the towers (belfries?).
Ghost 8 location (04:00 to 05:00)
Head to the church in Little Seoul. Just a little north, there’s a large intersection by a movie theater. Stand in the intersection and look back at the church’s tower to find this ghost.
Ghost 9 location (05:00 to 06:00)
Over in East Vinewood, look for the U-shaped and abandoned apartment building. What for this ghost in the courtyard.
Ghost 10 location (00:00 to 01:00)
The 10th and final ghost only appears once you’ve taken pictures of the other nine.
Head to the bottom of the Land Act Dam. You can follow roads to the top, but you’ll have to get all the way down to the base for the final picture. At midnight, the ghost will appear in front of the spillway.
Ghosts Exposed rewards
Each picture of a ghost you send in will get you GTA$ 40,000 and 500 RP. When you photograph all 10, you’ll get an extra GTA$ 50,000.
Completing the Ghosts Exposed event will also earn you the Ghosts Exposed Outfit and the Ghosts Exposed Livery for the Albany Brigham vehicle.
