Just like the BO6 The Tomb song, players want to know how to activate the BO7 Zombies Ashes of the Damned song. Call of Duty Zombies has a long tradition of hiding musical Easter eggs across its maps. Fans expect atmospheric tracks, perk jingles, and of course, the iconic vocals of Elena Siegman produced by Kevin Sherwood. The starter map, Ashes of the Damned, brings back her voice in a brand-new track that rewards players for exploring every corner of the battlefield.
This Ashes of the Damned Easter egg guide shows you exactly how to activate the soundtrack by finding three hidden Mr. Peeks headphones scattered across the map. Whether you’re new to BO7 Zombies Ashes of the Damned or a veteran completionist, follow these steps to unlock the Easter egg song.
BO7 Zombies Ashes of the Damned Easter Egg Song Guide
To trigger the music, you must locate three Mr. Peeks headphones. Each one appears in a fixed location, but you’ll need mobility, solid firepower, and the Ol’ Tessie wonder vehicle to cross the large map efficiently.
Let’s begin.
Janus Tower – First Headphone
Start your hunt in Janus Tower Plaza, right beside the Quick Revive machine. This is the easiest piece to collect and can be activated as early as Round 1. Enter the Quick Revive room and inspect the shelves. You’ll spot the Mr. Peeks headphones resting there. Interact with them to claim the first part.
Exit 115 – Second Headphone
Next, move toward Exit 115, better known to longtime players as the classic Tranzit Diner. Once inside, search the abandoned car parked near the center of the area. The headphones sit right on the seat. Pick them up, and you’ll hear Mr. Peeks laugh—your confirmation that the piece has activated.
Ashwood – Final Headphone Near Double Tap
The last headphone sits in Ashwood, placed near the middle portion of the map. Ride the zipline located in front of the garage until you reach the Double Tap machine. Look toward the shattered building nearby. Climb to the top, and you’ll find the final Mr. Peeks headphone waiting for you.
Once collected, the Easter egg track instantly begins.
The reward is a new song titled “Turn to Ashes.” Its themes echo the emotional fallout of the classic Aether storyline, especially after the final events of Black Ops 4. The track hits with the same energy fans loved in “115” or “The One,” making it the perfect companion to intense rounds of survival.
And that’s how to unlock the BO7 Zombies Ashes of the Damned Easter egg song. For more Black Ops 7 content, stay tuned to RetroNoob.
