Actor Andy Hallett, who many knew for his role as "the friendly greeen demon Lorne" in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer sequel series Angel, has died at the young age of 33.
Hallett suffered a five-year battle against congestive heart disease and passed away on March 29, 2009.
Andy Hallett -- best known for playing Angel's suave, friendly green demon Lorne with the ability to read people when they sang (most often at his violence-free karaoke club) -- passed away March 29 following a five-year battle with congestive heart disease. He was 33.
Hallett focused on music after finishing work on Angel, however, he had been hospitalized on several previous occasions due to his illness.
Hallett has spent his post-Angel years working on his music career, playing shows around the country. He had been admitted to the hospital three or four times in the past few years for his heart condition, according to Pat.
Another Angel castmember, Glenn Quinn, who played Doyle in season one, passed away in 2002.
A private funeral service for Hallett is expected to be held for family and close friends in Cape Cod this weekend.
