The curse of the film series Poltergeist

Death while filming has always had a dark undertone to it but a supposed curse to the cast of the set of the film series Poltergeist is one the most famous. I found this series to be one of the most frightening at a young age and been scarred of clowns since then and get the goosebumps when I'm in my living room waking up to static on the tele. I tend to pass out while watching tv and long film marathons at my place. During the filming cast and crew reported an odd feeling and really weird situation that took place.
Here are some odd facts about the film.

• Dominique Dunne, who played the oldest sibling Dana in the first movie, died on November 4, 1982 at age 22 after being strangled by her jealous boyfriend.The boyfriend, John Thomas Sweeney, was convicted of voluntary manslaughter and sentenced to six years in prison, but was paroled after serving three and a half years.
• Julian Beck, 60-year-old actor who played Kane in Poltergeist II: The Other Side, died on September 14, 1985 of stomach cancer diagnosed before he had accepted the role.
• Will Sampson, 53 years old, who played Taylor the Medicine Man in Poltergeist II, died as a result of post-operative kidney failure and pre-operative malnutrition problems on June 3, 1987.
• Heather O'Rourke, who played Carol Anne in all three Poltergeist movies, died on February 1, 1988 at the age of 12 after what doctors initially described as an acute form of influenza but later changed to septic shock after bacterial toxins invaded her bloodstream. At the time, she had suffered acute bowel obstruction, initially diagnosed as Crohn's disease, which may have been the cause of death.
