Summary
It began only weeks after a close family friend lost her brother. At first, the strange activity seemed harmless—ceiling fan lights turning on by themselves, random flickering, and fire alarms sounding for no reason. Easy things to explain away.
Until it started happening in two separate homes.
One night, a blinking light flashed beneath a bedroom door while two girls tried to fall asleep. Another evening, during Thanksgiving dinner, the family made a toast in memory of the man who had passed away… and immediately the dining room lights flickered while the fire alarm erupted out of nowhere.
The deeper they looked into the strange electrical activity, the more personal it began to feel. Then a psychic revealed something chilling: the deceased brother’s favorite way to let people know he was still around was by playing with the lights.
And after that revelation, the activity stopped completely.
