Flashbacks in the following episode, "Are You Now or Have You Ever Been", reveal that he had lived there during the 1950s and, attacked by a McCarthyesque mob, abandoned the hotel's residents to a paranoia demon known as a Thesulac. In the present day, Angel frees the lone remaining inhabitant from the persistent demon; with this unfinished business finally closed, he decides to clean up the Hyperion and make it the new home of "Angel Investigations". In the episode "Carpe Noctem", Angel's business card is clearly visible, showing the address 1481 Hyperion Avenue. Angel Investigations was based in the hotel until the final episode of season four, "Home", after which they moved into the headquarters of Wolfram & Hart's Los Angeles branch. The hotel was also home for Angel, Lorne, Gunn, Fred & Connor, and occasionally harbored the group's other members and people they helped. The Hyperion was last mentioned in season five, during the show's final episode, "Not Fade Away", in which Angel and his friends regroup in the alley north of the hotel for one final battle. In the 9th issue of Angel: After the Fall, Angel and friends move back into the Hyperion hotel and make it their base of operations.
