Lazarus Demons are rare high-level demons with telekinetic and reforming powers, along with the ability to transport themselves through ashes. They grow stronger the longer they are released. Lazarus Demons are hot-tempered and unreliable, and especially hard to vanquish as the only way to prevent them from reforming is to bury their remains in a cemetery.

History[]

Ruining Phoebe's Wedding Under Cole's Orders[]

After becoming the Source of All Evil, Cole and the Seer sought to ruin his and Phoebe's wedding in order for them to be wed in a dark one, which would assure that their future son would become evil. To achieve this goal, the Seer freed a Lazarus Demon to attack the Charmed Ones. This Lazarus Demon died a total of four times before being buried again. The first time, Paige orbed a sword into his stomach. The second time, Cole hit him with a fireball. The third time, Piper blew him up, reducing him to ashes once again. The fourth and final time Cole once again hit him with a fireball after which he was buried in the cemetery.[1]

Alternate Reality[]

Lazaruspiper

Piper battles a Lazarus Demon.

In an altered reality created by Cole Turner, Piper had become a bitter demon hunter after Prue's death, as Paige was not there to reconstitute the Charmed Ones. She lured a Lazarus Demon into a trap and tried to interrogate him for information on Shax. When Paige arrived in this reality, she told Piper she would have to bury the Lazarus Demon in a cemetery to keep him from resurrecting. Paige's knowledge of this helped convince Piper that she was telling the truth about being from another reality.[2]
