Of course it could also be a "dormant" volcano playing possum.
It is difficult to distinguish an extinct volcano from a dormant (inactive) one. Volcanoes are often considered to be extinct if there are no written records of its activity. Nevertheless, volcanoes may remain dormant for a long period of time. For example, Yellowstone has a repose/recharge period of around 700 ka, and Toba of around 380 ka. Vesuvius was described by Roman writers as having been covered with gardens and vineyards before its famous eruption of AD 79, which destroyed the towns of Herculaneum and Pompeii. Before its catastrophic eruption of 1991, Pinatubo was an inconspicuous volcano, unknown to most people in the surrounding areas. Two other examples are the long-dormant Soufrière Hills volcano on the island of Montserrat, thought to be extinct before activity resumed in 1995 and Fourpeaked Mountain in Alaska, which, before its September 2006 eruption, had not erupted since before 8000 BC and had long been thought to be extinct.
Volcanoes that no longer erupt is called an extinct volcano. An extinct volcano is defined as a volcano that has not had an eruption in at least 10,000 years, and is not expected to erupt again in a comparable time scale of the future.
A dormant volcano is another term for a volcano that is no longer active but could potentially erupt again.
It can be called an active, dormant or extinct volcano. An active volcano erupts regularly and frequently, however, it might not erupt at some times. A dormant volcano rarely erupts. Therefore, it does not erupt for most of the time. An extinct volcano does not erupt anymore.
ACTIVE! Ones that are sleeping but could erupt again are called DORMaNT! And ones that are never going to erupt again are called EXTINCT!
it is called a dormat volcano

A dead volcano is called a distinctive volcano. It is no longer able to erupt and is in the process of eroding. There are also dormant and active volcanoes.

The second eruption is called a reawakening or re-eruption.Most volcanoes erupt multiple times over the course of their lifespan; the period during which a volcano doesn't erupt is called its dormant period or dormancy.
This describes a volcano.
