"I Can Feel It In My Bones": Skeletons in Folklore

Skeletons are a common costume choice at Halloween. But they’re the ultimate symbol of death. Let's be honest, if I see a skeleton, then I know I'm looking at a dead body.  So let’s explore the folklore of skeletons, and how they appear in art, in this week's episode of Fabulous Folklore! CW: Discussion of skeletons and human remains.
