Death:

On November 7,2008, Melinda was warned by a friendly boy ghost that a dangerous character (Hunter) was waiting at a lodge when the ghost broke up his potential bride and proved him a fraud. Jim went alone so that he and Melinda could meet at home earlier when he inspected a light going on inside the cabin. He found a drunken Hunter with a gun. Meanwhile Melinda contacted a detective she knows and they headed to the cabin. They saw fighting shadows and the detective randomly shot into the scene. He hit Jim, not Hunter in the shoulder. After a long surgery, Melinda gets to stay with Jim in his recovery room. He sleeps motionless for hours when Melinda sees him get up. He sweetly talks to her and says, 'I want you to remember me like this.' Suddenly the heart rate monitor gives a long solemn beep. Staff rushes in and Melinda says to Jim's spirit, 'No. Not you! Not you! Oh God, please! Not you!'
