Puzzling Celebrity Deaths That Still Remain a Mystery Today

Jack Nance

Fans of David Lynch, particularly Twin Peaks and Eraserhead, may or may not know about the suspicious circumstances of Jack Nance's death. Nance met some friends at a coffee shop in 1996 with a "crescent-shaped bruise" beneath his eye. When he asked about it, Nance mentioned that he got in a fight outside of a donut shop and "got what [he] deserved." The injury caused a subdural hematoma, and examiners determined that Nance's death was caused by blunt force trauma to the head—but who was responsible?

An autopsy revealed that at the time of his death, Nance had a blood alcohol level of 0.24%.
