The Resume

    (December 27, 1975-February 1, 1988)
    Portrayed Carol Anne Freeling in three 'Poltergeist' movies ('They're HEEEEERRRRRREEEEEE')
    Acted in 'Massarati and the Brain (1982),' 'Terror in the Aisles (1984)' and 'Surviving (1985)'

Why she might be annoying:

    She appeared on some goofy shows 'CHiPs,' 'Fantasy Island' and 'Webster,' and had a recurring role of Heather Pfister in the final year of 'Happy Days (1982-83).
    While eating lunch at the MGM commissary Steven Spielberg approached her to be in 'Poltergeist.' She was more interested in lunch than the offer.
    She failed the screen test for 'Poltergeist' because she laughed instead of acting afraid of the stuffed animal.

Why she might not be annoying:

    She was president of her 5th grade class.
    She could memorize 60 pages in an hour.
    During 'Poltergeist III,' she suffered flu-like symptoms.
    She died of intestinal stenosis on the operating table (February 1, 1988).
    Her mother blamed her death on a wrong diagnosis.
