Corey Feldman dropped a massive bombshell in December 2025 when he claimed his late friend and costar Corey Haim of made an unwanted advance towards him.

Nicknamed “The Two Coreys,” Feldman and Haim were among the biggest young stars of the 1980s, having shared the screen together in classics such as License to Drive, The Lost Boys and Dream a Little Dream.

As adults, they starred in the short-lived reality series The Two Coreys, which chronicled Feldman’s attempts to help Haim get sober after years of addiction issues.

However, Feldman alleged that there were dark undercurrents to his friendship with Haim in the 2025 documentary Corey Feldman vs. the World. He claimed that Haim asked him to “mess around” while they were filming The Lost Boys. (At the time, Feldman was 16 years old and Haim was 15.)

Corey Feldman Called Himself and Corey Haim the ‘Predecessors’ of Troubled Teen Stars

Corey Feldman looked back on his and Corey Haim’s struggle with fame before the launch of their reality show, The Two Coreys, in 2007. Both Coreys told ABC News that they sympathized with then-current stars like Lindsay Lohan, who spent a day in jail in 2007 after pleading guilty to DUI and cocaine charges.

“We were kind of really at the tip of the iceberg,” Feldman admitted. “You didn’t really see kid stars getting busted at that point. It all kind of started snowballing after that. … We were the predecessors.”

At the height of their fame, Feldman pleaded no contest when he was charged with heroin possession in September 1990. The actor received a $5,000 fine and completed a stay in a residential rehab to resolve the case.

Haim once admitted that he’d been in rehab more than 15 times throughout his life. His addiction struggles allegedly continued until his death, as The Los Angeles Times reported that Haim obtained 553 prescription pills — including 195 tablets of Valium and 149 Vicodin tablets — through doctor-shopping in the final weeks of his life.

“He is the poster child for the problem,” then-California Attorney General Jerry Brown said at a press conference at the time. “There are a lot of doctor-shoppers and most of them aren’t celebrities.”

Corey Feldman Alleged He and Corey Haim Were Molested

The Two Coreys season 2 included a harrowing scene where Corey Feldman and Corey Haim opened up about being molested when they were child stars.

“That was one of those things that we’d discussed not bringing up. And then Haim brought it up anyway,” Feldman told GQ in June 2008. “You know how there’s one thing that your friend’s got against you that he could use as blackmail at any time? That was the one thing.”

Feldman explained that his raw conversation with Haim “lasted probably two hours” but was condensed for TV.

“I certainly think [the molestation] affected Haim’s [life]. I think it’s stunted him,” he theorized. “That’s the root of why he hasn’t had a solid relationship. I went through my own similar problems, and fortunately, I was able to [compartmentalize] it in my brain.”

Feldman added, “Let’s not forget that I went through an intensive 10-month rehabilitation process [to get over a heroin addiction]. The only way I could overcome that addiction was to deal with my deep-rooted problems. I wanted to put it out there and give it back to God and all that healthy stuff you’re supposed to do.”

Corey Feldman Went Through Periods of Estrangement With Corey Haim

The Two Coreys revolved around Corey Feldman trying to convince Corey Haim to get serious about substance abuse recovery. The two had several tense blow-ups on camera throughout the show’s two seasons.

“We’re not on speaking terms at the moment,” Feldman admitted to GQ in June 2008. “There’s always going to be some level of friendship. Blood is thicker than water. But I’ve officially drawn the line. If I’m helping to perpetuate a lie, I’m adding to the problem. Every person needs to hit their bottom.”

Feldman argued that, while Haim had hit bottom “several” times, he’d yet to experience an incident “that’s taken him to the curb.”

“I know that he’s lost teeth. I know that he’s lost hair,” Feldman acknowledged. “He’s never been arrested. He’s never spent time in jail. He’s basically the Canadian Keith Richards.”

Feldman specifically mentioned that he was “incredibly disappointed” in Haim for allegedly being under the influence when they filmed Lost Boys 2 that same year.

“I worked very, very hard to get Corey into Lost Boys 2,” he claimed. “And then he shows up in that condition, and I was like, ‘After everything we’ve been through to put this together, why would you pick today of all days to be half-cocked?’”

Corey Feldman Called Corey Haim a ‘Beautiful, Tormented Soul’ After His Friend’s 2010 Death

Corey Haim died from pneumonia at age 38 in March 2010. A postmortem examination determined that he had an enlarged heart and water in his lungs at the time of his death.

Corey Feldman revealed that he’d been “awakened at 8:30 [that] morning by my brother and sister knocking on my bedroom door” to reveal that his “brother Corey Haim” had died.

“My eyes weren’t even open all the way when the tears started streaming down my face,” he recalled. “I am so sorry for Corey, his mother, Judy, his family, my family, all of our fans, and of course my son who I will have to find a way to explain this to when he gets home from school. This is a tragic loss of a wonderful, beautiful, tormented soul, who will always be my brother, family and best friend.”

The Gremlins star called for Haim’s death to be “a lesson in how we treat the people we share this world with.”

“I hope the art Corey has left behind will be remembered as the passion of that for which he truly lived,” he concluded.

Corey Feldman Blamed Pedophilia for Corey Haim’s Downfall

Just over a year after Corey Haim’s death, Corey Feldman told ABC’s Nightline that “the No. 1 problem in Hollywood was and is and always will be pedophilia.”

“That’s the biggest problem for children in this industry. … It’s the big secret,” he said, later adding: “I was surrounded by [pedophiles] when I was 14 years old. … Didn’t even know it. It wasn’t until I was old enough to realize what they were and what they wanted … till I went, Oh, my God. They were everywhere.”

He suggested that Haim’s addiction was a “a symptom” because he could not cope with being abused.

“There’s a lot of good people in this industry, but there’s also a lot of really, really sick, corrupt people. And there are people … who have gotten away with it for so long that they feel they’re above the law, and that’s got to change,” Feldman said.

Haim’s mother, Judy, told ABC News that she was “not willing to discuss or respond to anything Corey Feldman has to say.”

“He shouldn’t be talking about my kid,” Judy said. “I wish he would talk about himself only and leave my son out of it.”

Corey Feldman Said Corey Haim Once Accused Charlie Sheen of Sexual Assault

In his 2020 documentary My Truth: The Rape of Two Coreys, Corey Feldman claimed that Corey Haim confided in him about allegedly being sexually assaulted at age 13 by Charlie Sheen, then aged 19, on the set of the 1986 film Lucas.

“This wasn’t like a one time thing he said in passing. It wasn’t like, ‘Oh, by the way, this happened.’ He went into great detail,” Feldman claimed in the documentary.

Sheen’s spokesperson told People that Feldman’s “sick, twisted and outlandish allegations never occurred.”

“I would urge everyone to consider the source and read what his mother Judy Haim has to say,” Sheen’s spokesperson said.

When one of Corey Haim’s friends first made the accusation about Sheen to The National Enquirer in 2017, Judy told Dr. Mehmet Oz that she did not believe any abuse occurred.

“I know what’s going on out there with what everybody is saying, and … I can tell you as a mother that I haven’t seen one change in character. I would have known if anything was wrong,” Judy said on The Dr. Oz Show in November 2017. “My kid had nothing. He was, like, transparent. He never hid anything. He was Corey. It’s out of character, that’s No. 1. When my son was 13, he wasn’t going to ask Charlie Sheen to go and sleep with him.”

Corey Feldman Accused Late Friend Corey Haim of Asking Him to “Mess Around”

Corey Feldman made a bombshell accusation in his 2025 documentary Corey Feldman vs. the World that Corey Haim allegedly asked him to “mess around” when they were shooting 1987’s The Lost Boys.

Haim allegedly told Feldman that it was “what guys in the business do,” adding: “You know, you suck each other’s d***, or you f*** around, you do this stuff.”

According to Feldman, Haim said “Charlie [Sheen] told [him] it was OK,” though Feldman remembered feeling frightened by what his friend was proposing. (Sheen has always vehemently denied any wrongdoing regarding Haim.)

“I called [Haim] and said, ‘Come over.’ But you know, when you have got somebody that’s trying to come onto you sexually, and you don’t want that, and you are a kid, and you are scared,” Feldman insisted. “You do whatever you can to stop it from happening, and that’s what was happening. I was being molested by Corey Haim. Truth be told.”

Corey Feldman vs. the World director Marcie Hume didn’t press Feldman on the accusation in the documentary. She later told Variety that she wanted Feldman to “tell his truth” in their on-camera discussions.

“It was an incredibly emotional moment where Corey was almost reliving what that was like to live in this hyper-sexualized environment as child actors in Hollywood,” Hume said. “Corey has many, many layers that contradict one another. Part of what emerged with this film is opening up as many questions as possible and opening up the view of Corey.”

Feldman’s legal team told Us Weekly via a statement on December 19 that Feldman did not accuse Haim of sexual assault and only suggested Haim made an “advance” that was not reciprocated.

“Mr. Feldman’s statement was that during the filming of The Lost Boys Mr. Haim sought to ‘mess around’ with Mr. Feldman, however, Mr. Feldman did not reciprocate his advances and contacted another party on behalf of Mr. Haim,” the statement read.

It continued, “Mr. Feldman’s statement that Mr. Haim ‘molested’ him was in reference to Mr. Haim’s advances, and not physical molestation. The film and any other current articles on this issue distort the truth and context of Mr. Feldman’s words and story. Mr. Feldman makes no claim that Corey Haim physically ‘molested’ him.”

Us Weekly has reached out to Haim’s estate for comment.
