Entering the mansion, it's clear something ghostly is occurring. Chairs and various objects are floating and, as the party climbs the stairs, they start to attack. Use dash to climb the steps as fast as possible and enter the upstairs bedroom (X:-251, Y:-55) to initiate a cutscene with Lady Jannath and a possessed Oskar. Three [[Poltergeist|poltergeists]] appear to attack the party. Avoid attacking Oskar or hitting him with AoE attacks, as Oskar's death causes Jannath to immediately kick out the party and prematurely end the quest. The poltergeists turn invisible, but Volo's Ersatz Eye can greatly help in this encounter. Otherwise, [[Faerie Fire]] and [[Spirit Guardians]] are incredibly helpful.

Have a melee attacker enable the Non-Lethal Attacks toggle, and attack Oskar to knock him out. This will immediately kill the three poltergeists. Don't actually kill Oskar, though, as his death causes Jannath to immediately kick the party out and prematurely end the quest.  
 
If you can't knock Oskar out and must instead kill the poltergeists manually, be aware that they'll turn invisible. [[Volo's Ersatz Eye]] and other sources of [[See Invisibility (disambiguation)|See Invisibility]] can greatly help in this encounter. Otherwise, [[Faerie Fire]] and [[Spirit Guardians]] are incredibly helpful.


Once the poltergeists are dealt with, Jannath pleads with the party to help her. She needs discretion, which is why she sent the servants away. She notes that there appears to be something off about the atelier at the top floor and directs the party to investigate there.
