“What is wrong with your sister?” Hadrian asks Enialis as he casts a deathly spell, calling forth a ghostly hand to grab the specter.
Chill Touch Attack: 26 Damage: 8 necrotic, and (If you hit an undead target, it also has disadvantage on attack rolls against you until the end of your next turn.)
"Friends? I found some food. This place is remarkably well stocked. Oh! Pickles!". When there's no response to pickles, he heads back into the kitchen to call again, "Friends? Fae?Enialis?"
All Phanuel hears is his own voice, echoing throughout the empty hall. Do you wish to continue investigating the first floor or head upstairs and see if your comrades aren't there?

(Given how quick combat is, it'll take him longer to sort out that he's been abandoned than it will take them to kill the specter. And he doesn't really want to go running through the creepy house. That's how folks in horror stories get got.)
Putting his daggers away Enialis gives Fae the smallest of approving smiles before saying, “Well. Looks like this house is haunted or something. So we shouldn’t be split up if there’s more of those things about. Meaning....where’s Phanuel?”

Elyse scores a hit, but it's not the death blow that she was expecting it to be.
The Specter cries out horribly and attacks Enialis. Attack: 8 Damage: 13
It misses, as Hadrian's spell managed to throw it off-kilter. You may attack again.

Frustrated by the lack of impact from her first strike, Elyse smoothly transitions into a backswing at the Spectre.
Attack: 16 Damage: 4
Unfortunately for Elyse, her backswing does even less damage than her first attack.

With everyone else keeping the creature distracted Enialis stabs his dagger back into it, hopefully hitting a point that is vital in most creatures.
Dagger Don't Fail Me Now: Attack: 10 Damage: 10
Unfortunately for Enialis, his dagger does fail him as he completely whiffs on his attack.

Hadrian grabs his crossbow off his shoulder and fires a bolt at the specter.
“Foul apparition! Begone!” He bellows.
Attack: 16 Damage: 7

While Hadrian's attack doesn't deal full damage, the specter looks significantly weakened, as if it's barely clinging to unlife.

(Fair enough points. What does Phanuel want to do then?)

(I'm trying to Pace him with the combat. He will eventually get upstairs, but he's had like 5 seconds sine he opened the pantry doors.)

"There's nothing wrong with me," Fae says, sounding offended. "It's the power of positive thinking!" She employs said power and attacks again.
Quarterstaff: Attack: 18 Damage: 10
Unarmed: Attack: 16 Damage: 6
The power of positive thinking is not being helpful.

Everything Else!
Faerynna whiffs horribly with the quarterstaff, but finishes off the specter with the power of positive thinking. Or her fists.

The party hears a lone voice from downstairs, "Hello?" He cautiously starts climbing the stairs, wondering if they left the house entirely.
Elyse backs away toward the door and says "One of you should check the crib."
