Celebs Who Went Into Hiding Before Their Death

Celebrities spend much of their lives in the public eye. To some extent, it comes with the territory — fans will always be curious about the ins and outs of their favorite star's personal life. But celebrities are people, too, and there are certain things that deserve privacy, regardless of fame. For some celebs, public scrutiny gets to be too much, and they make the decision to retreat into isolation. And often, they'll remain cut off from the outside world for the rest of their lives. Whether on account of poor health, extreme OCD, or just being tired of it all, these are the celebs who went into hiding before their death.
