Skeletons are AI-controlled enemies found in the Halloween map Helltower.
There are two types of Skeletons that can spawn: team-colored and green. While team-colored Skeletons can only inflict or receive damage from the opposite team, Green Skeletons can inflict or receive damage by either team. Team-colored Skeletons are only spawned by the players on the server using a Rare Summon Skeletons Magic Spell.
There are 3 different variants of Skeletons: Small Skeletons, Normal Skeletons, and Skeleton Kings. Normal Skeletons always spawn in numbers on every other witching hour (when the clock on the clock tower strikes midnight), alongside a single, larger Skeleton King with a greater pool of health. When killed, Normal Skeletons will cause Small Skeletons to sprout from their remains, which will continue to attack until destroyed. The Skeleton King will drop a Rare Magic Spell upon death.
If spawned through console using the command "ent_create tf_zombie" before the Scream Fortress Fifth Annual Helloween Special, the skeleton would be a random class wearing a Voodoo-Cursed Soul, with an invisible melee weapon.

Unused Content
- There exists 3 unused skeletons in the game's files; a plain skeleton that does not glow any specific color, a skeleton that glows an orange color, and a skeleton that glows a purple color.
Trivia
- The Skeletons use the Sniper's animations, similar to Merasmus.
- The Skeleton King wears Prince Tavish's Crown (with RED gems).
- Sentry Guns and the Helltower-specific Monoculus eyeballs will attack green skeletons or skeletons of the opposite team color.
- Team-colored skeletons spawned by players will attack green skeletons or skeletons of the opposite team color.
Bugs
- Sometimes the Skeleton King will hit a player standing behind the wall or above him (eg balconies on Helltower).
- On rare occasions, the skeletons summoned by either team will sometimes freeze and won't move or attack making them useless. They can still receive damage as normal.
