Phantom Hourglass (Item)

The Phantom Hourglass is an item used by Link in The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass. It is believed that the Hourglass will be used within the cursed underwater shrines to protect Link from the effects of the curse. Refilling the Hourglass requires that Link collect the Sands of Time from around the various islands.

In the final two boss battles, Link gains the ability to use the Hourglass to temporarily freeze time, as long as he has a Phantom Sphere.
