Daveigh Chase — the former child actress — is dead … TMZ has learned.

The actress’ boyfriend, Roy Hernandez, tells TMZ … Daveigh died Tuesday from meningitis and an infection in her blood, which caused her to have septic issues and led to her body shutting down.

We’re told Daveigh had been admitted to a hospital in Los Angeles earlier this month because of malnutrition.

Daveigh caught her big break in Hollywood early on … voicing “Lilo & Stitch” in the hit Disney film back in 2002 and the follow-up TV show. She also voiced Chihiro Ogino in the American dub of “Spirited Away.”

Horror movie fans will recognize her from her haunting performance as Samara Morgan … the main antagonist in the hit 2002 film “The Ring” … for which she won an MTV Movie Award for Best Villain.

Beginning in 2006, Daveigh earned a recurring role in the HBO series “Big Love” … which follows a fundamentalist, polygamist Mormon family. She played Rhonda Volmer in 32 episodes of the hit show during its five-season run.

Her other credits include … “Donnie Darko,” “Beethoven’s 5th,” “Sabrina the Teenage Witch,” “ER,” “Mercy,” and more.

Daveigh had numerous run-ins with the law over the years, which we’ve covered.
