The unexpected death of the child star Heather O’Rourke at age 12 cemented an urban legend that was circulating for years: The movie “Poltergeist” was cursed. However, the real cause of her death might be infinitely more disturbing: Hollywood depravity.

The Insanely Dark Story Behind “Poltergeist” and its Young Star Heather O’Rourke (vigilantcitizen.com)

Appreciate this post. I’m a child of the late 80s and remember having access to this movie. Being raised by my grandparents they never would have purchased this on vhs. Unfortunately this would air I believe on the Warner Brothers network after Saturday morning or either weekday cartoons. I never would have guessed it had a PG rating but that explains how it would follow children cartoons. Tragic that this happened to her and continues.
