How much voltage is supposed to appear across that resistor?
Follow Ups:
~250V.20k||33k = 12.45k
250V/20k = 12.5 mA
12.5 mA x 250V = 3.125W

250V across a 20K resistor is 12.5mA, so you'll be sitting at just over 3 Watts of dissipation, which shouldn't have been a problem with a 10-12 Watt resistor.
No, it shouldn't have. The problem is someplace else.
