Step 1: Accept the Job at the Photographic Studio
A Chilling Site is one of the four photographer jobs in Yokohama. You can take them once you have the camera, which you get from the inventor Igashichi Iizuka after recovering his stolen blueprints. Accept the job from the Photographer at his Photographic Studio in Honcho. The Photographic Studio Veiled Edge Banner is right at his shop.
Step 2: Go to Northwestern Hiranuma-Shinden at Night
Head to Hiranuma-Shinden, northwest of Yokohama town. With the mission active, a round yellow mission area shows up in the northwest of the Hiranuma-Shinden map.
The Graveyard Ghost Clue
Open your mission menu to read the job from Junji the Coward:
My drinking buddy claims he saw a ghost stalking the graveyard on the edge of town. At first, I thought he was pulling my leg, but he genuinely seemed spooked! If it’s a joke, it’s a cruel one, as now I can’t pass by the place without feeling a chill run down my spine. Somebody please get to the bottom of this, and make it quick!
– Junji the Coward
The ghost only appears at night. Rest in your longhouse or use your pocketwatch to skip to nighttime. If you want to scout the graveyard first, go there by day, then wait nearby and skip ahead.
Step 4: Photograph the Ghost at the Grave
At night, the “ghost” is a man performing a ritual in front of the center grave. Walk quietly in through one of the entrances to the stone ring, take out your camera and approach the center grave until the circle in the middle turns red. Then take the photo.
The Chilling Ending
Once you have the photo, stay and watch. The real ghosts of the graveyard don’t take kindly to the man’s ritual, and it doesn’t end well for him.
Step 5: Return to the Photographic Studio
After the spooky ending, return to the Photographic Studio in Honcho to hand in the photo and collect your reward.
The Photographer has three more Scene of Interest jobs in Yokohama: Camera Obscura, Scene of the Crime and Canine Catcher.
