Spirit Killer

The Spirit Killer is a type of darklighter assigned to prey on an innocent's vulnerabilties, notably on those who are considered paragons of good and those identified as future whitelighters. He will then manipulates the victim into suicide through cursing him or her with bad luck and compounding it via telepathic communication. Future whitelighters are a favorite target of Spirit Killers, as committing suicide automatically disqualifies the person from becoming a whitelighter.

The original Charmed ones encountered one in the episode "Murphy's Luck" going after a young philanthropist and future whitelighter named Maggie Murphy, who he had cursed with unfortunate events and suggestive "everything bad happening around you is your fault" mental messages for so long she had gained a reputation as the most unlucky person in San Francisco.

After Prue Halliwell redirected her suicidal fall off a high building to save her life, she then cast a spell with Phoebe to reverse Maggie's luck, the Spirit Killer than targeted Prue and used her job situation to attack her for much more immediate and aggressive effects. Had Prue died, her good-luck spell would have died with her. Within hours, Prue was rendered on the verge of jumping off a highway, but Piper and Phoebe were able to spot her and convince her that the Spirit Killer was standing behind her and was really the one driving her suicidal thoughts. Leo, who had just regained his wings, then orbed in and orbed the Spirit Killer away; presumably to vanquish him.
