I've been trying to sign up for a while but I always chicken out and leave it. I've come here for me and my brother, about 20% me and 80% my brother. We're twins, identical even to this day. In some ways I guess we use to be like the twins from horror movies, always whispering and finishing each others sentences. It was great really, my mum always said we had a deep connection which we did, I knew when he was in pain or upset. It's impossible to explain unless you've experienced it but I'm scared I've lost it.
We both has what my aunt calls the gifts. My aunt was a medium and she to this day consults me and my brother on different areas for me it's finding lost things and predicting outcomes, but my brother is in a whole other league or at least I say so. An example is when my friend was about to loose her house due to a will going missing, me and my brother went with her to the solicitors for emotional support. We sit down and the guy walks in, my brother stands up looking at him saying, "Give it back." A week later my friend phones us saying the solicitor admitted to being paid to hide the will and had confessed due to terrible nightmares. My friend guessed it was guilt but I know it was my brother.
Back onto the issue my brother had been talking about a hotel near our parent's house that use to be an mental asylum. The hotel had reports of lights flickering, footsteps, whispering and apparitions usual spooky ghost stuff. My brother was asked to check it out quietly, what can I say he has a good track record. The first day he went he arrived at my door at eleven at night in tears. My brother who would never cry in front of me was practically screaming that he didn't want to go back. I'd always liked the hotel, our great, great maybe great grandfather use to be a doctor there, it made me feel like it was ours. But he was now sat on my couch, eyes wide saying that he didn't want to go back. It was my partner that convinced him to go back saying the whole area would suffer if people were scared of the hotel. Now I'm tearing myself apart for not stopping him.
I didn't notice anything wrong at first, the hotel was claiming that he'd gotten rid of the spirit which was strange since he normally spends a good three days doing anything like that. He seemed to just be my brother but something was different. It began with my dreams, the dream I have every night, I always see him tied up by black string, smiling at me as a dark figure works him like a puppet. Reoccurring dreams mean something to me. Now the whole family has noticed a change, he gets unexplained bruises, has changed from the happy-go-lucky person he normally is to quiet and will jump at his own shadow.
I keep trying to get him to talk to me but he always looks scared, never fully looking me in the eyes. He's become obsessed with being home before dark which makes family gatherings hard at best. The last time I stayed over he kept all the lights on throughout the night, when I turned them off thinking he was just tired and forgot he woke up shouting at me before running around flicking them all back on. He use to laugh at me for being scared of the dark and that was when we were six. The weirdest change though came at a party at the hotel, our sister's engagement party. One moment he was almost at tears outside as me and my aunt tried to calm him down the next minute he was chatting up everything male. Something my brother would never do. My aunt refused to talk to him for the rest of the night saying 'It ain't right boy, taking somebody over like that'.
So what should I do? I want my brother back, I want the happy-go-lucky person I grew up with who would always be willing to pass on messages from spirits. Please help me any advice however small would be greatly taken on-board
