What is the 'Glee curse' based on?

In July 2013, actor Cory Monteith, who played lovable quarterback Finn Hudson in the show, was found dead in a hotel room in Vancouver, British Columbia. If the reports are to be believed, the autopsy report revealed that Monteith had died from a toxic combination of alcohol and heroin. As per reports, Monteith was very vocal about his struggles with substance abuse and had also taken some time off during the show to go to rehab. 

In 2018, tragedy struck again when Mark Salling, who played the role of Noah “Puck” Puckerman in the show, was found hanging from a tree in a riverbed near his home in Sunland, California. As per reports published by a leading news daily, Salling committed suicide six weeks before he was due to be sentenced to four to seven years in prison for possession of child pornography. The report adds that actor Becca Tobin suffered a personal tragedy of her own when her boyfriend, nightclub entrepreneur Matt Bendik, was found dead in his Philadelphia hotel room in 2014.
