Lyle Gorch was a vampire, the brother of Tector Gorch and the husband of Candy Gorch. Before he was sired, Lyle and his brother were murderers, known for their extreme brutality. After his brother's demise, he returned a year later with his wife Candy to participate in "SlayerFest '98", but after Candy was staked by Buffy he was intimidated into departing Sunnydale by Cordelia, despite the fact that she was not a Slayer. He was portrayed by Jeremy Ratchford.
