So now I'm stuck with my brothers alarm clock that goes off at 12:45 at night, EVERY Night! or my parents smoke detector goes off.
I never had anything like this happen to me before and I'm just confused.
Also ever since I took the alarm clock out of their house, the flies in the basement have vanished.
But they aren't on the flypaper.
Not looking for a miracle worker, just thought I'd share since I need to tell someone and it just sounds crazy.

Say it was for whatever (bizarre) reason something to do with your brother, why does it bother you?
It doesn't seem violent, or is that it serves as some kind of reminder?

go on...

>>15513466
Get rid of it dumbass it's a fucking clock

>>15513475
just kinda freaky

i do kinda laugh about it now since it just is so weird

Anything special happened with your brother at 12.45?

>>15513521
he did die between 10:30pm and 6:30am

won't know near to exact time until the final reports come out, should be anyday

Maybe he's trying to warm you about something?

10 years ago, when my grandfather died, people would she a shadow walking inside a room, so my grandma decided to check the room out and found a bundle of cash hidden in the room, nobody saw the shadow after that.

hidden cash you say?

gotta look harder I guess

>>15513578
My Granny used to hide cash all the time in weird places because of her dementia. In pants pockets in the trunk of her car and all sorts of strange spots.

>>15513457
>his body melting and dripping into ash
reminds me of God telling there is not afterlife and you will just be ashes
like the first philosophers said "dead is dead"

be careful not to die yourself

>>15513592
Or it could be hell fire?

Sorry for your loss, OP. Thank you for sharing this story. Please let us know when you find out what time he died at, although I think we all know the answer.

Check for gas leakage in your parents house, that may cause a fire. Your dream about your bro burning and melting and smoke detector/alarm clock going off. Sounds like a link.

Sad story, OP. Spooky but sad story. Hope you find some resolution.

OP, I hate to ask but...how did he die?

>>15513610
Yeah, as much as it pains me to ask, it may be important.

>>15513604
Yep, watch out op, sounds like a warning sign

>>15513592
who were the first philosophers you're talking about? I though the "dead is dead" theory was a more modern one.

>>15513610
he was murdered

last text was 10:20pm and was found at 6am

and with all honesty I've been focusing on other things like helping my family and didn;t really think about the times matching up.

Your brother obviously has some unfinished business. If 12:45 was the time he was murdered, it might imply a thirst for justice or something like that. Or it might be something more material, but that's something you could know better than any of us.

I can't really give a clear example, but "ghosts" do haunt because of unfinished business - this is a very common scenario with temporary hauntings of deceased relatives. Just dig into your memory and try to think what could have been of the utmost importance for him - and fix it to stop getting woken up at 12:45 every night.

Bumping. OP let us know of any developments.

How old was your brother, OP?

>>15513898
Might also be possible he's trying to warn you. If the killer is someone with a vengeance against your family, the fact he's still contacting you and your parents could be a sign. If I were you, I'd be on your toes at 12:45 AM.

He was killed at 12:45AM.
It was by a serial killer that kills every night at that time.
He targets every member of a family.
The beeping wakes you alert you of his arrival.

>>15516923
Lock and load OP. time to be the spirit of vengeance
