Welcome to the Heather O’Rourke Memorial Site
This site is dedicated to honoring and preserving the memory of the late child star, Heather Michele O’Rourke (December 27, 1975 - February 1, 1988).
Discovered by Steven Spielberg while eating in an MGM commissary with her mother Kathleen and sister Tammy, she landed the role of “Carol Anne Freeling” in Poltergeist, and would charm audiences and touch hearts the world over. She would also leave the legacy of her immortal tag line “They’re here!” firmly embedded into the lexicon of movie fans everywhere.
But there was much more to her story. Enter here, and learn all about the wonder, love, warmth and angel that was Heather Michele O’Rourke.
We are now the Official Heather O’Rourke Fan Site
Thanks to an endorsement from Tammy, we have been honored in being named The Official Heather O’Rourke Fan Site! This is truly a wonderful time for this site and it’s members and staff. It’s much more than just a title, but rather a responsibility to live up to the expectations of Heather fans everywhere.
A few words to Tammy and Kathleen,
The staff and membership of the Memorial site would like to extend our extreme gratitude to you Tammy and your mom for being with us through these years. There aren’t words to describe our appreciation to you both for being here to answer questions and creating a memorable bond between your family and the fans. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you! This site could never have become what it has without you!
