The Spirit Orbs, known in Japanese as Nenju (prayer bead), are consumable items exclusive to Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly, used to increase the Camera Obscura's power and capabilities. They are small, clear spheres presumably imbued with spiritual power. When used, they increase the limit that the camera's basic functions or power-up lenses can be powered up. Spirit Orbs were removed in Fatal Frame III: The Tormented, and were replaced by Spirit Stones in Deep Crimson Butterfly.
Spirit orbs are found in various places throughout the village, however, they are also randomly dropped by defeated ghosts.
Use[]
Use of spirit orbs can be done through the function upgrades section of the Camera Menu. A tutorial file details their use in powering up the Camera Obscura:
