One of the creepiest side quests youāll encounter in Once Human is the Strange Empty House quest. This quest has you tracking down a mysterious house that pops up in random locations. Hereās a quick guide on completing the Strange Empty House quest.
How To Complete Hale’s Moving House in Once Human
To kick off the Strange Empty House quest in Once Human, you need to make your way to the Chalk Peak region, a level 32 area in the game. Your journey begins by talking to an NPC named Jeremiah. He will be near the water body beside the Tall Grass Inn. Jeremiah will tell you about a strange house that seems to disappear and reappear at random, piquing your curiosity and setting you on this spooky trail.

Finding the Strange Empty House
Jeremiah will give you four possible locations where this elusive house might be hiding. Hereās where you need to look:
- Abandoned Quarry: This spot is in the northern part of Chalk Peak, surrounded by pointy cliffs and dense undergrowth. Be careful while navigating this area, as itās quite easy to get lost.
- Halesā Moving House: This place is a bit tricky because the house here keeps moving around, so keep your eyes peeled and be ready for some action.
- Evergreen Vineyard: Located in the southern part of Chalk Peak, this area is lush and green. Look around the grapevines and buildings.
- Whispering Pines: This mysterious forest in the western part of Chalk Peak is where the house might be hiding among the trees.
Tracking Down the House
Visit each location and check for the house, whether itās there or not. It may be on the ground or walking around on giant legs. If itās the latter, shoot down the legs to bring the house to the ground. This part can be nerve-wracking, so stay alert.
Entering the Strange Empty House
After youāve managed to ground the house, enter it. Inside, youāll encounter a peculiar hand structure emerging from the ground with glowing orbs. Hereās what you need to do:
- Eliminate the Hands: Shoot down the hands to release the orbs.
- Track the Orbs: Use your scanner (press Q) to locate the items that have absorbed the orbs.
- Destroy the Items: Shoot the identified items to obtain the orbs.
Once youāve collected all the necessary orbs, a loot crate will appear on the hand structure at the entrance. This is your reward spot.
Strange Empty House Quest Rewards
Completing this eerie quest will net you some fantastic rewards:
- Stardust Source
- Controllers
- Acid
- Disco Ball Deviant
The Disco Ball Deviant is particularly awesome as it can disorient enemies with high-intensity lights, making it a powerful tool to have up your sleeve. And if you happen to find the house in Evergreen Vineyards, you can also grab the Voodoo Doll Deviant, too.
