Flowers
What was the deal with the flowers? How did he always seem to know what flowers the dead liked?
shareHe asked the ones that were still alive which type of flower was their favorite.

Among the many conflicting hints, this is one that sits on the Ricci's dead side. Neeson could talk to the dead, so in his conversations he asked what flower they liked (though they don't show an example of these mundane questions).
The old piano teacher was obviously dead - he was not kept alive like Ricci supposedly was. So for Neeson to know his favorite flower confirms he could speak to the dead.

That doesn't prove she was dead. With her being alive he could ask her the question and she could answer.

Still doesn't prove they're dead. The director himself said the pictures Neeson takes show who is dead or alive. The ones with their eyes closed are dead and the ones with their eyes open are alive.
Ricci and The piano teacher were alive and answered his flowers questions because they accepted their death. share
Yes it´s like people here already answered, he asked the ones who were still alive. That is how he knew what kind of flowers to use in the funeral. But. The ones who had their eyes open in the photos were alive, the others were actual deceased. When Anna was in her piano teacher´s funeral, she sees him moving in the coffin just moving his eyes and Anna flinches. This is one of the clues that some of the people were actually still alive. The killer sees Anna seeing the teacher move. This is probably one of the reasons he focuses on Anna, and also seeing her so nervous and looking for her pills/keys in the drive way.
Anna was clearly alive when she was buried. So was her old piano teacher, and many others.
I found it so annoying, her just giving up like that and not trying to escape... useless and frustrating.
