Hollywood actress Daveigh Chase, known for her roles in the horror film The Ring and Disney’s animated feature Lilo & Stitch, has passed away at the age of 35.
John Ryan Jr, her longtime manager, confirmed her passing during an interview with BBC News, revealing that she was taken to the hospital for malnutrition before her death.
Her health, however, got complicated and progressed to a bloodstream infection and, eventually, sepsis. 
“She was the greatest. She adored cats. She collaborated with us on cat rescue efforts. She’d like to eat at Bob’s Big Boy and return home with the pets. She enjoyed acting but was not interested in the famous scene,” Ryan said.
Chase was known for her role in the horror film, The Ring.
She once revealed that she enjoyed playing such a wicked character.
“This is not the average character. Typically, they are searching for a happy-go-lucky kid, but Samara was an intriguing role to play.
“I just took my own voice and gave it this freaky twist,” she told the Los Angeles Times in 2002.
Her management noted that the actress had largely stepped back from mainstream Hollywood projects and full-time acting in 2015, choosing to focus her later years on independent films and animal rescue initiatives.
