Not to be confused with Skeletron.

Skeletons are one of the monsters that spawn underground in the stone layer. They have a 4% (1:25 chance) to drop hooks and Skeletons may run away after their health is below 15.

Skeletons can break down a door even when there is not a Blood Moon, but since they only spawn in the stone layer, it shouldn't be a problem if you build a house on the surface.

If a Skeleton cannot get to the player for a certain period of time, he will walk away. If he cannot get away for a certain amount of time then he will go back to trying to get to the player. This cycle continues until he either walks off the screen or is killed. If he manages to walk off the screen, he will despawn automatically.

If you make a hellevator and you leave parts open from caves you run into, a skeleton may fall into the shaft above you and deal damage to you.

Skeletons from statues won't drop money, but will still drop hooks.
