Lazarus Demon

Lazarus Demons are rare high-level demons with Telekinetic and Resurrection powers, along with the ability to transport themselves through ashes. These demons usually work for whom or what had resurrected them. They grow stronger the longer they are out of cemetery grounds. Lazarus Demons are hot-tempered and unreliable, and especially hard to vanquish as the only way to prevent them from resurrecting is to bury their remains in a cemetery.

Only two Lazarus demons appear in the series: one in Marry-Go-Round, and another in Centennial Charmed. In Marry-Go-Round, the Lazarus demon was resurrected by The Seer in order to help Cole ruin his wedding to Phoebe so that they could have a dark wedding.

In the episode, the Lazarus Demon "died" a total of 4 times before being buried. The first time, Paige telekinetically orbed a sword into his stomach. The second time, Cole hit him with a fireball. The third time, Piper blasted him, obviously forcing him to return to dust again. The fourth and final time (before he was buried), Cole once again hit him with a fireball after which he was buried in the cemetery again.

In, Centennial Charmed, an alternate reality, leather-clad, demon-hunting, Piper freezes a Lazarus Demon, and blows up his arm in an attempt to question him on the whereabouts of Shax.
