From • @chloessevigny I ❤️ actresses Heather O’Rourke #heatherorourke Heather was 5 and sitting in the MGM commissary, said her former manager, Mike Meyer. Steven Spielberg, who co-wrote and produced the first of the “Poltergeist” series, saw her and asked if he could talk to her. He was told that she did not talk to strangers. #carolann #theyrehere R.I.P. Heather https://www.instagram.com/p/Cj6QNqgDkvktxqInJbtyQcTXxIGaN21CNbzyvc0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
