"I want to stop." "WE CAN'T.". What does this mean?
This has more to do with the Crown and the Ring (and also the Sword) than with the biology of specters.
Objects of power profoundly alter the way the spirits they bind think, which is why Ghost Monarchs are known for their lust for power and their uncontrollable and fiery tempers.
In the case of a specter (or, like the show calls them, "halfas"), objects of power will tend to manifest their influence on both the human and ghost forms, but much more so on the latter. This can give rise to what is called a "broken specter", a creature with a balance between its material and spiritual parts completely leaning towards the spiritual, in which the "ghost" is the one making the main decisions.
Normally, a specter has complete harmony between the two parts, being manifestations of the same person, but objects of power alter the behavior of the ghost part so profoundly that it creates a fracture within the same being, a sort of multiple personality, in which the angry, vengeful and greedy one prevails over the human one.
So, basically in that scene human Vladislav is begging his ghost part to stop this senseless path of blood and vengeance, but Plasmius can't stop, he's compelled by the Crown and the Ring, and now he decides.
They can't stop. They won't stop. Everyone must die.
