Fans often find themselves attached to certain stars who cherish their lives and special moments all the time. However, upon the demise of a popular star, it is difficult for the audience to find closure. This is certainly the case when the reasons are unknown, leaving the onus of imagination to the fans. One such instance is of Jeet Kune Do founder, Bruce Lee.

Although he filmed one of his biggest hits in America—Enter the Dragon—unfortunately, the Little Phoenix did not live to see his impact on the audience. The legend passed away while filming for Game of Death, at the mere age of 32. His sudden demise caused his fans to not only grieve, but also come up with a myriad of conspiracy theories.

Bruce Lee and his family curse

While the conspiracy theories ranged from jealous co-stars to problematic business partners to the involvement of gang members, one of them tops them all. This theory originated from an anecdote courtesy of Bruce Lee’s mother. Before the martial arts king was born, he had an elder brother who died under mysterious circumstances.

The superstitious beliefs of Lee’s family conspired them to believe that the male members were targeted by an evil spirit. This is why the martial arts star had a female nickname, Little Phoenix. However, the icon passed away after a series of ailments that were attributed to a brain condition called cerebral edema.

Although the cause of his death was clear, fans couldn’t believe the medical facts of the matter. The fact that someone as fit and healthy as Bruce Lee could pass away at such a young age was tough to swallow. Due to this, many conspiracy theories emerged, and the story of the family curse spread like wildfire.

Lee’s son met the same fate

An incident that caused the audience to strongly believe in the family curse theory was another unfortunate demise. This time, it was Bruce Lee’s son, Brandon Lee. While shooting for his movie The Crow, the 28-year-old Brandon was accidentally shot and killed. This incident also led fans to draw eerie similarities between Bruce’s character in his last film.

However, all of these are mere speculations by fans who wished for closure. While it is unfortunate that both Bruce Lee and his son met the same fate, they have proved so much more through their artistic ventures. At a shockingly young age, both actors impacted a huge audience with their art. What do you think really happened with the Lee members?
