Angel Dust/History

Born into an Italian crime family in New York City, Angel Dust's human self known as Anthony died in 1947 following an overdose of phencyclidine (PCP), hence his namesake down in Hell. Since arriving in the underworld, his work for Valentino's studio allowed him to become the biggest adult film superstar in Hell, drowning out his world with narcotics and his twisted sense of humor.

Two weeks prior to the pilot, Angel was working on the street to make money for Valentino to make up for missing a film shoot. Here he met Charlie and Vaggie first mistaking them for customers. The two offer to pay him if he listens to them which he agrees to and they tell him about the Happy Hotel. Charlie is able to see right through Angel's persona which unnerves him and he starts laughing. When Vaggie suggests finding someone else Angel elects to become the Hotel's first patron saying he is "3 months behind on rent" and doesn't wish to pay in other means. Charlie thanks him ecstatically and pays him a hefty sum for helping them, which confuses him greatly. The next day he enters the hotel and is given the rules, which include no drugs, pranks or other type of sinning.

After being mostly clean and out of trouble for two weeks, Angel assists in a turf war alongside Cherri Bomb against Sir Pentious and threatens the Hotel's reputation before it has a chance to get off the ground. After getting told off severely by Vaggie on the drive back to the hotel, Angel arrived back at the hotel and bemoaned how there was almost nothing to eat but quickly stopped when he saw Charlie had been crying. Soon after, the radio demon known as Alastor arrived and offered his services to help get the hotel up and running; Angel caught him off-guard by offering to give him a blowjob, but the demon refused. When Vaggie insisted they remove the newly created bar in the lobby, Angel tackled her and hissed that it was staying. He began flirting with the newly hired bartender Husk, who quickly told him to screw himself; Angel coyly suggested Husk could watch if he wanted to, disgusting the latter.
