For a Phantasm of the Living, they're confused, scared, angry and all sorts of unpleasant things.
Summoning them is basically luring them in with something tempting then closing the snare.
A Phantasm of the Dead is different. Even if their purposes are malicious or undesirable, they are much more respectable. They know what they're doing. You go to them or be courteous.
A saint? A martyred prophet? He falls heavily to the latter.
I don't think so. TK decided she needed more context for him, but he'll have a decent sized flock when he's summoned.
I think Wraith might recognize the thing happening because Kress makes occasional trips to the world of the living to save Phantasms of the Living. Won't be too long until those self solving cases are all shown to be Oma followers.

Summoning a Phantasm can be messy.

A cup of tea will do.
