I was on level 16, minding my own business, when "something" hit me. Naturally, I figure this is a phantom, so I prepare for a tough fight. The next thing I know, my Hp is 1(62), so I think this would be a good time to drop my scare monster scroll, which I do. So, I type "fk", and it says "I see no monster there". OK, can't see phantoms, fine. Then I type 'k', and it says "you barely miss something." Then I type 'k' again, but this time I actually move up on the screen, and the phantom finished me off. Do phantoms, or other monsters, move away from scare monster scrolls? I'm very certain this is the way it happened, I have 'tee' output which verifies it.
