It's more of something that I have heard, but I do have theories on this subject if it proves to be true. I can't find much on the grim reaper because it is so commercialized and everything I look up on the internet has to do with a game or TV show. All I'm asking for is a straight answer. And if you have any other helpful info on the grim reaper besides the fact that he only comes when there is death and blah blah blah, I'd greatly appreciate it.

This link provides a decent outlook on the "grim reaper" but there are many names and a lot of history behind the story.

I have looked at this link before, and it speaks of many views... The thing is, it doesn't speak of any type of family. Thanks though.

It does speak of a brother, but never saw a reference to any children. His brother is Hypnos, god of sleep

Where did you hear that he has 5 sons?
