Dead in Hollywood is a true-crime web series of strange and tragic Hollywood deaths.
I can't believe this story is real! I thought it was a joke when I saw it on Twitter yesterday. I once went to a wedding here in L.A., and I spent the entire time thinking that I was seated next to me. It turns out that he has a twin brother. I’m a huuuge Buffy fan, so the chances of me embarrassing myself were high. Thankfully, I acted unimpressed and left a bad impression. Crisis adverted. (CLICK on IMAGE for article)
Did John Ritter have to die? On September 11, 2003, Ritter suffers from heart problems while rehearsing for his sitcom “8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter.” He begins sweating profusely, vomiting, and complaining of having chest pains. He is taken to the hospital across the street from the studio - coincidently it is the same hospital where Ritter was born. Physicians misdiagnose Ritter and treat him for a heart attack; however, his condition deteriorates. He is then diagnosed with an aortic dissection - a tear in the aorta that grows. Ritter dies during surgery, six days before his 55th birthday. He would have turned 70 today. Ritter is interred at Forest Lawn, Hollywood Hills Cemetery.
