Corey Haim

Rising to fame in movies like 1986’s Lucas and 1987’s Lost Boys, Corey Haim was once a bona fide teen idol and, with hell-raising pal Corey Feldman, earned the name "The Two Coreys." The two even appeared together in the 2007 A&E reality show of the same name. But he struggled with substance abuse for years (with numerous trips to rehab), though his agent told People that he doubted that the reportedly now-clean actor's death on March 10 at the age of 38 was from an overdose. Police Sgt. William Mann told the Associated Press that the actor suffered from flu-like symptoms before being taken to an L.A. hospital and had obtained over-the-counter and prescription medications; his death was ultimately ruled a natural death from pneumonia and assorted heart issues.
