The item list
The item database holds all 18 items with appearance and effects. In Content Warning a pickup is not always a gift — many are curses that punish a greedy grab.
Grab these for footage or utility
- Bones, Apple, Chorby — pure content value, safe to carry.
- Old Painting — content, but holding it 3+ seconds spawns Big Slap nearby. Film it, then drop it.
- Radio — plays loud music; useful as a distraction or just flavour.
- Sketch Pad / Titlecard — let you write on-screen titles for your SpöökTube clip.
Cursed — read before you touch
- Radioactive Container — holding 3+ seconds ragdolls and kills you, dropping the item.
- Shroom — holding 3+ seconds turns you into a Shroomed Player (no revert; you lunge at teammates).
- Brain on a Stick — spawns 5 Snails at the nearest off-screen spawn point.
- Animal Statues — picking up the “Aminal Stateu” flips your gravity and drains health until a teammate throws the other statue at you.
- Goo Ball, Grabber Arm, Hugger, Rescue Hook, Shock Stick — tools; the Shock Stick is your panic disable for 27 of 31 creatures (see the enemy guide).
When to risk a curse
Some cursed items are worth the scare for the footage. Only take the risk when your team can cover you and your escape is open — the survival guide covers the discipline.
