Skeleton Hangman

About This Game

Skeleton Hangman is a free online hangman game packed with words from dozens of categories, giving you a fresh challenge every time you play. It features the same iconic wisecracking skeleton from Halloween Hangman — because a talking skeleton with strong opinions does not need a holiday to be entertaining. Guess the hidden word letter by letter before six wrong guesses bring the full skeleton to life. With categories spanning food, geography, pop culture, and more, Skeleton Hangman is the definitive hangman game you can enjoy any day of the year in your browser.

How to Play

Click or tap the letter buttons to guess a letter. You can also type letters on your keyboard for faster play.

Additional Info

Skeleton Hangman was born from the success of our holiday-themed hangman games. When we rebuilt the series in HTML5, we combined all the seasonal editions into one game with words from dozens of categories — playable year-round instead of just during holidays. It is completely free, works in any browser on any device, and requires no downloads or plugins.
