Skeleton Men

Origin
Skeleton Men are also called "living skeletons". The live in the City of the Living Dead, situated on the Island of the Living Dead. Skeleton Men appear as human skeletons. This is caused by their drinking source, a pool that turns their skin and flesh invisible. One of the [Unicor warriors drinks the water and turns to a skeleton. Rod Rian thinks that the water's effects will wear off with time. He gets an idea to enter the City of the Living Dead and have the effects wear off in front of the Skeleton Men. The effects wear off, and Unicor's regular appearance returns. The Skeleton Men think it's a miracle. After Rod Rian is challenged by the Skeleton Men using a wild dog, Rod defeats the dog and follows it to its water source. The water is different than that which causes the skin of the Skeleton Men to go invisible, and the issue resolved.
