Although the quintessential spiritualist is a priest or wizard, that doesn't necessarily have to be the case.

The spiritualist might not be able to get to them leave, or they might harm the spiritualist if that is within their capability. It's possible that spiritualists will be vulnerable to attacks by spirits that non-spiritualists are immune to.
