Andy Hallett, known in geek circles as Lorne on TV’s Angel has died of heart failure at the ripe age of 33.
Andy Hallett, who starred as Lorne (“the Host”) on the TV series Angel, died of heart failure last night at age 33, according to his longtime agent and friend Pat Brady. The actor passed away at Cedars-Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles after a five-year battle with heart disease, with his father Dave Hallett by his side.
His character Krevlornswath of the Deathwok Clan, or Lorne was first known as “The Host” and we later find out he is an outcast from a violent race of demons who don’t understand his love for music and performing. He quickly became a staple on TV’s Angel, and one of the most popular supporting cast member.
He wasn’t much outside of Angel, but he will always be remembered as Lorne the Host.
