Not since the Nazarene brought me back from the dead. "Arise, Lazarus," he said. And I became the Resurrected Man, haunted by the horrific memory of what I'd seen the four days that I was dead: the souls of the damned writhing in agony.
— Lazarus to Mambo Marie[src]


Lazarus is a guest starring character on Netflix's Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. He is portrayed by Oliver Rice.

Lazarus was the undead ally of the Eldritch Terrors, specifically the Returned.

Throughout Chilling Adventures of Sabrina[]

Part 4[]

Lazarus returns to the land of the living with the Returned as the latest of the Eldritch Terrors to arrive in Greendale. He greets his old friend, Mambo Marie, who challenges him to a game of Senet at Dorian's Gray Room. To win, they must move their pawns to the end of the board, to the afterlife. However, should Lazarus win, the dead will never return to the land of the living and suffer endlessly along with the living.

Lazarus and Mambo Marie continue their game of Senet. Marie mentions how she’s never seen him smile. He hasn’t since the Nazarene brought him back from the dead. “Arise, Lazarus” he said. And thus he became the Resurrected Man, haunted by the horrific memory of what he had seen the four days he was dead: the souls of the damned writhing in agony. Mambo Marie questions if this is the case then why would he bring them back to the land of the living. Lazarus simply replies that he seeds pain and suffering.

Lilith interrupts their game and asks for a boon from him. She requests that he return her child to life, however, without a body, he cannot help Lilith. Lazarus then proceeds to win the game, meaning that the living and the dead will forevermore be entwined and suffer, feeding the Void as it approaches. However, before he can finalize this act, Lilith kills him with the Spear of Longinus. Lilith figured if the spear could kill the Nazarene then it could kill one of his last remaining miracles.[1]
