Skeleton Crew is Stephen King's second collection of short fiction, published in 1985. It contains 22 works, which include 19 short stories, a novella (The Mist) and two poems ("For Owen" and "Paranoid: A Chant"). In addition, it features an introduction by the author, in which King describes the benefits that writing short fiction has given him, and a section of notes at the end, in which King describes how some of the stories came to be.Most of the works in Skeleton Crew were previously published in horror anthologies and magazines, and represent a body of work spanning seventeen years.A few of the stories have been made into film and television adaptations, and some have been made into "Dollar Babys" by aspiring filmmakers. Half-Life and Silent Hill both took their inspiration from The Mist.Not to be confused with the 90s video game or the upcoming Star Wars television series for Disney+ with the same name. | |

Cymbal-Banging Monkey | |

Cymbal-Banging Monkey: In "The Monkey", obviously. The one in this story is creepier than most, being able to cause fatal accidents to happen whenever its cymbals clash. | |

Gaia's Lament | |
| Skeleton Crew / int_13a6b7ef | comment |
Gaia's Lament: In "The Jaunt", Mark refers to the Nasty Eighties, where the lack of oil resulted in things like coal clouds and a large stretch of the California coastline rendered uninhabitable for 60 years thanks to a nuclear accident. Even after the invention of the titular device, most of the Earth's water supplies were poisoned by 2030 and remain so even 300 years later, requiring water to be mostly collected from Mars. | |

Unreliable Narrator | |
| Skeleton Crew / int_1869b4b1 | comment |
Unreliable Narrator: Played with in "Survivor Type". There's no real reason to suspect that Richard Pine is actually lying about his life and backstory in "Survivor Type", though his account is clearly skewed by his own narcissism, disdain for others, refusal to admit to his own flaws, and eventually his gradually deteriorating sanity. He outright states that he intends to destroy the diary if he gets rescued and is keeping it purely to occupy his mind, so even if his perspective is somewhat skewed it's suggested we can more or less trust what he's saying. However, his record of how long he spends on the island becomes increasingly unreliable over the course of the story; if we went just by the dates he provides it would appear to take place over a little under a month, and yet even in his earlier, more lucid entries there are some hints that he's gradually losing track of time the longer he spends on the island; dates repeat or are amended as if he's uncertain or second-guessing himself. And of course, by the end when madness has fully set in he's clearly just abandoned any attempt at accurately keeping track of time anyway. | |

Post-Peak Oil | |
| Skeleton Crew / int_1b45acae | comment |
Post-Peak Oil: The world hit this in the 1980s in "The Jaunt", where the price of gas rose to $15 per gallon and Americans could only drive two days per week. In the winter of 1986, around ten thousand people froze to death simply because there wasn't enough energy to heat their homes. All of this, combined with fears of mass starvation and anarchy in the 1990s, caused the government to begin sponsoring private researchers for a solution, leading to Victor Carune's invention of his teleporter. | |

Babies Make Everything Better | |
| Skeleton Crew / int_23f1384a | comment |
Babies Make Everything Better: In a strange way. When Richard retroactively deletes his son Seth from existence, his wife turns into an even worse version of her already overweight, nagging, crass self, because twisted as her enabling love for her son was, it was still love, and without it she turns to belittling her husband full-time. | |

Only Sane Man | |
| Skeleton Crew / int_24321e44 | comment |
Only Sane Man: Deke and Randy both become this in "The Raft" after the thing in the water eats Rachel slowly and painfully. Randy tries to jump into the water after Rachel to save her, but Deke grabs him because he knows that Rachel is already dead and he doesn't want his friend to die. Meanwhile, Laverne is screaming and is no help at all. Deke then starts reasoning, when the slick goes under the raft, that it gives him the best chance to swim and get help. Unfortunately, the oil slick pulls him through the cracks. Randy then helps Laverne set up shifts, and they are awake and watching it together. Unfortunately, a bit of touchy-feely means her hair gets in the water, and Randy breaks down as he's the Final Guy and the oil slick wants to eat him. | |

Artifact of Death | |
| Skeleton Crew / int_3094ec26 | comment |
"The Monkey" never explains the origin of the cymbal-playing monkey, there's nothing about it that sets it apart from the countless other toys of the same model, it's just a cheap souvenir once cranked out from a factory in Hong Kong. The main character even thinks to himself that whatever turned the monkey into the Artifact of Death it now is might have happened during the decades it was locked up in the family crawl space. | |

Kill the Ones You Love | |
| Skeleton Crew / int_39684516 | comment |
Kill the Ones You Love: A tragic one in "Ballad of the Flexible Bullet." Jane Thorpe loves her husband Reg, but fears that he is paranoid to a fault. Even so, she tries to enable his belief about Fornits in the typewriter and asks the editor in the story to make sure his story is published. It turns out that leaving him would have been the safer decision in the long run; enabling his paranoia ends up making him snap when he thinks she has violated his ground rules, and he shoots her in the head. She's lucky to have survived. You can't treat mental illness with love and patience alone. | |

Youth Is Wasted on the Dumb | |

Youth Is Wasted on the Dumb: Ricky Didn't Think This Through on going through the Jaunt awake and holding his breath. Lampshaded in "The Raft" when Deke and Randy realize that they and Laverne are trapped on a raft in the middle of a lake with a sentient oil slick trying to eat them, and which has already eaten Rachel. As Randy puts it, they just took off and left without telling anyone, on an impulse trip. The summer cottages nearby are empty in late fall, hunters don't come till next season, and it's unlikely a caretaker will come. | |

Schizo Tech: Partially unintentional due to it being written over a decade before email, but because Jaunt technology was invented in 1987 and functions as an instantaneous courier service, "The Jaunt" depicts a future of space colonies where written mail is still the primary long-distance communication. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: When Victor Carune decides to begin animal testing in the backstory of The Jaunt, he puts a white mouse in front of the entrance portal and waits for it to walk through. The skittish animal instead makes a break for it, since there's nothing keeping it in place or forcing it to walk in one direction. The mouse actually manages to escape through a crack in the wall before Carune can catch it. It ends up being the only survivor of the test mice, since all the others died from the effects of the Jaunt. | |

Robinsonade: "Survivor Type" is a particularly harsh example, as the desert island Richard Pine is stranded on is really just a tiny, rocky knob in the middle of the ocean with nothing growing on it, so food is rather scarce, to say the least. To survive, Pine eats seagulls, a dead fish, and ultimately, himself. | |

Go Mad from the Isolation | |

Go Mad from the Isolation: Traveling through a teleporter while conscious in "The Jaunt" inevitably leads to insanity or death (and more often, insanity followed by death) because the victim is left alone with only their own mind as company for a period of time that literally feels eternal. "Survivor Type": With each diary entry we see Richard, who is stranded on a tiny island by himself with no food, is slowly but surely losing his mind. | |

No One Gets Left Behind | |
| Skeleton Crew / int_7969f21e | comment |
No One Gets Left Behind: This is what dooms Randy in "The Raft". He could, on two different occasions, have made a swim for it while the oil slick was eating his friends. The first time, he's trying to keep an unconscious Laverne from falling in the water and the second time he's in too much shock to even try. Ultimately, Randy can't leave his friends and doesn't have the guts to try and swim. | |

Sudden Downer Ending | |
| Skeleton Crew / int_8124e7a6 | comment |
Sudden Downer Ending: One thing that makes the infamous ending of "The Jaunt" even more horrifying than it already is is how it contrasts the rest of the story's laidback, almost Slice of Life tone in which all of the Foreshadowing only exists within the flashbacks to the Jaunt's early trials. | |

Paranoid Thriller | |
| Skeleton Crew / int_819deed9 | comment |
Paranoid Thriller: "The Ballad of the Flexible Bullet" is about the paranoid writer Reg Thorpe who believed in the existence of Fornits (a kind of luck-elves who lived in typewriters and brought inspiration to writers), and that some sort of sinister conspiracy was about to kill the Fornit that lived in his own typewriter. The protagonist, who is Thorpe's editor, gradually loses his grip on reality and starts to believe in Reg's fantasies, largely due to his own alcoholism. The story leaves it unclear whether or not the fornits and the conspiracy really existed, but there are some implications that they did. | |

What Happened to the Mouse?: Asked word for word by Mark's daughter in "The Jaunt", but not in the usual situation. The mice who went through the first Jaunt gateway while awake all died, but as Mark is trying to calm his children's nerves before their first Jaunt, he doesn't tell them the truth. | |

Stating the Simple Solution | |
| Skeleton Crew / int_86f4f393 | comment |
Stating the Simple Solution: In "The Raft," Deke points out that he should try to swim for it when the oil slick goes under the raft since he has the best chance, and he can get help for Randy and Laverne. Randy even realizes later that it's the perfect distraction for the oil slick, and smacks himself for not realizing that he and Laverne could have made a swim for it while the thing was eating Deke slowly. The editor in "Ballad of the Flexible Bullet" points out that he could have simply used his contacts in the business to get Reg Thorpe's story published with a cover letter and explaining why Logan's wasn't publishing it. In fact, that would have led to a more successful publication than what he actually did: meet with them in-person and start rambling about radiation and electricity. In a more realistic sense, Jane Thorpe could have left Reg at any time. In fact, she was considering it before he met the editor. | |

Reed Richards Is Useless | |
| Skeleton Crew / int_8b221a63 | comment |
Reed Richards Is Useless: Averted in "The Jaunt"; they found a way to make teleportation a Mundane Utility and solve the energy crisis. The problem is when it goes wrong... Because the computer in "Word Processor of the Gods" was made from cannibalized parts and it overheats when used for too long, it doesn't work for more than a few min at most. Richard uses it to summon a bag of gold doubloons, delete his wife and son, and resurrect his nephew and high school sweetheart. He considers writing "ALL THE BUGS IN THE COMPUTER WERE FULLY WORKED OUT BEFORE MR. NORDOFF BROUGHT IT OVER HERE" when the computer starts suffering a Heroic RRoD , but he can only watch it die, and wait for it to resurrect Jon and Belinda. Justified in the TV adaptation, where Richard tries to do so, but his (later deleted) son blows a fuse with his guitar. | |

You Have Outlived Your Usefulness: Mark uneasily notes to himself that Victor Carune, the scientist who created the Jaunt process, was a slovenly, abrasive old man but suddenly turned into a grandfatherly and personable "face" for the technology when the government got involved. Whether he was somehow altered or completely replaced is unknown, as the story is set a good three centuries after the Jaunt was created and most of the stories about the early days of the technology have passed into myth. | |

Riddle for the Ages | |
| Skeleton Crew / int_96a33f11 | comment |
Riddle for the Ages: Just how in the hell did a freaking tiger get into an elementary school's bathroom, anyway? How did Jimmy Rulin come to see the Fornit in the typewriter? Jane couldn't see them until the very end, and Gertrude surely couldn't. By the time he is old enough to give testimony, he doesn't answer one way or the other. Jane briefly muses that perhaps the nebulous they that Reg is so scared of actually do exist, and were somehow able to possess or influence Jimmy into killing the Fornit. However, it's never confirmed if this is true or not. Some of the weirdness of both the "Milkman" stories defy explanation. Why was Spike delivering deadly substances to these particular homes in "Morning Deliveries"? What is up with the hallucinatory imagery experienced by Rocky and Leo in "Big Wheels: A Tale of the Laundry Game"? (Were they even hallucinations at all? Were the two of them experiencing the supernatural? Or were the pair just completely blotto?) Sadly, since Milkman was abandoned by King, we'll probably never know the answers to these questions. | |

Just Toying with Them: One possible interpretation of the monster's actions in "The Raft", though both we and the characters don't know the real limits of its abilities. (It's pretty definitely the case in the Creepshow adaptation, with its Diabolus ex Machina ending.) In the end, its attacks are relentless enough to force Laverne and Randy to stay awake all night. Randy to his credit holds out, only to give into sleep deprivation and despair, deciding to feed himself to the monster. | |

Unwitting Instigator of Doom | |

Unwitting Instigator of Doom: There are four in "Ballad of the Flexible Bullet": the editor, Jane Thorpe, Gertrude Rulin, and the latter's son Jimmy. The editor revealed that during an alcohol blackout he sent a telegram that revealed someone named Jimmy was hurting Reg's Fornit, and the editor said he didn't even know that Reg's cleaning lady had a son. Jane is told that Gertrude needs to bring Jimmy to the house while she works, and gives permission provided Jimmy never enters Reg's study, until Gertrude can find other arrangements. Of course, Jimmy must find the spare key, sneak into the study, and shoot at Reg's typewriter with his toy gun. By the time Jane and Gertrude found him, it's too late to dissuade him from killing whatever was in there, and Reg goes on a rampage against the three of them. | |

And I Must Scream | |
| Skeleton Crew / int_a8a04f6f | comment |
And I Must Scream: In "The Jaunt", the teleportation process is instantaneous, but if you go through it awake, you experience it as being trapped in a horrific void seemingly without end. The first human test subject said of the experience, "It's eternity in there." before dying, appearing to have aged hundreds of years after emerging. Mark's son experiences the same thing. Even worse, someone was pushed into an open Jaunt with no exit as is the case of one woman who was pushed into one by her husband for her infidelity. This becomes terrifying when you remember that less than a second through the jaunt feels like millions of years to the conscious mind. Since she is stuck in there forever, every second of that eternity is its own eternity. | |

Although it's sure to cause a great deal of chaos, the tarantula Spike leaves for the McCarthys is in all likelihood not going to kill anyone, even if someone in the household gets bitten. Unless you're allergic to their venom, the bite of a tarantula isn't deadly, just very painful. Of course, there is the possibility Spike (and King) knows this, and really doesn't care. He just wants to introduce a little anarchy to the McCarthys. | |

Extradimensional Shortcut: How "The Jaunt"'s titular teleportation works. In "Mrs. Todd's Shortcut" Homer discovers that this is what Mrs. Todd's short cuts really are: roads that exist in some parallel universe that allow her to reach destinations in their own universe much more quickly than she could if she used normal roads. The only catch is that the wildlife can get pretty hostile, and you start to age in reverse. | |

Too Dumb to Live: Jimmy Rulin has no sense of self-preservation. In fact, that's probably why he was asked to repeat first grade. He steals the key to Reg's study, sneaks in, and starts shooting at the typewriter. Gertrude and Jane try to get him out of there, especially when Reg comes home with a gun and murderous intent. He ignores them, up to the point that Reg tackles him and prepares to shoot. It's only because Jane grapples with Reg, getting shot for her troubles, and Gertrude carries Jimmy out of there that they survive. | |

Fold the Page, Fold the Space: Not physically demonstrated but the analogy is made in "Mrs Todd's Shortcut". Homer discovers evidence that Mrs Todd's shortcuts are taking fewer miles than are in a straight line between the trip origin and its destination, something that would be impossible in reality. Mrs. Todd compares the shortcuts to folding a map to bring two points closer together, suggesting she has discovered a warped version of reality, akin to a wormhole. | |

Naturalized Name: Richard Pine was born "Pinzetti", and a small part of "Survivor Type" discusses why he changed it — not only to get ahead in a medical field full of WASPs, but out of what seems to be genuine hatred for the Italian-American parents that held him back, especially his drunken, belittling father. While his mother despaired when he Anglicized the family name, Richard darkly notes that she went on to marry a Jewish grocer and take the name "Steinbrunner" not long after. | |

The protagonist investigates and eventually discovers he was cursed to have a Touch of Death after accidentally killing a boy; the story ends with Brower being Driven to Suicide and shaking his own hand. | |

Irony: In "Survivor Type", Richard Pine notes that, as a surgeon, even from a young age he has always fastidiously protected and cared for his hands. The story ends with him about to cut off one of his own hands in order to eat it. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Skeleton Crew / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: "Here There Be Tygers" shares its title with a 1951 short story by Ray Bradbury (although the two stories have nothing to do with one another plotwise). In-universe, Victor Carune nicknamed his teleportation process "the Jaunt" as a shout-out to Alfred Bester's novel The Stars My Destination. Also in "The Jaunt", scientist Victor Carune is a reference to the ill-fated astronaut of the same name from the first installment of the Quatermass television serials. | |

Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane | |
| Skeleton Crew / int_cb70651c | comment |
Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane: Just if the tiger in the bathroom in "Here There Be Tygers" is real is left ambiguous, although it can't be denied that the mean teacher and student disappeared without a trace after walking around the corner where it was. The fact that it has green eyes - something no living tiger has - and leaves only the smell of blood and a scrap of cloth behind strongly suggests it is supernatural, but it is never revealed. Were Rackne and Bellis real in "The Ballad of the Flexible Bullet"? Maybe. Was Reg Thorpe completely delusional, and was his particular strain of madness contagious? Who knows? We only know that Jimmy was shooting something in the typewriter, and he didn't give testimony on exactly what that was or if he thought he was playing a game. In "Uncle Otto's Truck," did the truck kill Otto Schenck by inching its way up to him, filling him up with oil and stuffing a spark plug into his mouth? Or did Otto really commit suicide by swallowing that oil and gobbling the spark plug himself as he lay dying? It's never made clear whether the titular character from "Nona" is a figment of the protagonist's imagination, a supernatural entity influencing him to commit violent acts, or a normal (albeit murderous) person. Though according to the protagonist witnesses at his trial claimed he was alone, seemingly removing the possibility she was a normal person. The ending of "Big Wheels" makes it unclear if Bob genuinely kills his wife due to being sick of her, or if Spike somehow influenced him into doing it. There's also the matter of Rocky claiming to see a giant bug when he gets drunk, which Spike somehow seemingly knows about despite not having been there. | |

Nothing Is Scarier | |
| Skeleton Crew / int_cdfe12c3 | comment |
Nothing Is Scarier: "The Reaper's Image" focuses on something seemingly innocuous; a mirror with a black smudge that sometimes appears in the corner. The smudge doesn't appear for most people. But the few people who do see it, for some reason, become terrified and flee the room... In "Morning Deliveries," Spike stops at one of the usual houses on his route to find that it has been recently (and hurriedly) abandoned, and that one of the walls has a large crater in it. Said crater is covered in blood and hair, but Spike simply leaves without investigating the matter further. "The Monkey" never explains the origin of the cymbal-playing monkey, there's nothing about it that sets it apart from the countless other toys of the same model, it's just a cheap souvenir once cranked out from a factory in Hong Kong. The main character even thinks to himself that whatever turned the monkey into the Artifact of Death it now is might have happened during the decades it was locked up in the family crawl space. Similarly, "The Raft" never reveals what the strange, carnivorous "oil slick is", or where it came from. It's either a new arrival, or only active during the fall months, as otherwise, there'd have been dozens of fatalities already since the beach is very popular during the summer. | |

Hoist by His Own Petard | |
| Skeleton Crew / int_d397657d | comment |
Hoist by His Own Petard: In "The Jaunt", the story of a man who shoved his adulterous wife into an open teleport with no exit is brought up. It's mentioned that, at the man's trial for murder, his lawyer attempted to make the case that his client wasn't guilty of murder because his wife was technically still alive. Unfortunately for him and his client, the jury only have to briefly consider the absolutely horrific implications of that defense before finding the man guilty and sentencing him to death. | |

Vitriolic Best Buds | |

Vitriolic Best Buds: Randy thinks that Deke is more of a bully to him than a friend sometimes, but Deke stops him from futilely trying to save Rachel and reasons with him that if no one is going to find them, then one of the trio has to make a swim for it. He only nominates himself by virtue of being the best swimmer, and Randy has to admit it's a legitimate point even if they'd rely on Deke to get help. Likewise, when the oil slick starts eating Deke through the cracks in the raft, Randy tries his best to save him. | |

Unusual Euphemism | |
| Skeleton Crew / int_d848560f | comment |
Unusual Euphemism: A very strange example from "Here There Be Tygers". Charles refers to going to the bathroom as "going to the basement", a now old fashioned New England euphemism for a toilet in a school, and in fact seems embarrassed and angry that his teacher refuses to let him use this euphemism and instead demands he say "bathroom". It's never explained why he prefers this euphemism, even to the point of considering it the proper way to say it, nor do we know if others also use it; he's the only person to use the phrase, though another kid in his class doesn't seem to see anything wrong with it. | |

Artistic License | |
| Skeleton Crew / int_dd6ce5db | comment |
Artistic License: The main character of "Nona" procures a police shotgun that he identifies as a pump-action, but when he later uses it to murder an innocent man and attempt to kill a second, its functions are explicitly described as being those of a double-barreled boxlock. In "The Jaunt", Victor Carune tests the process on a pair of goldfish after the test mice all died or went catatonic. One fish dies, but the other somehow manages to shake off the effects after a few moments, which is implied to be because of its limited memory making it simply forget about the time-dillation effect of The Jaunt. The idea that goldfish only retain a few seconds of memory at a time is a popular myth, but it doesn't have any actual truth to it. Although it's sure to cause a great deal of chaos, the tarantula Spike leaves for the McCarthys is in all likelihood not going to kill anyone, even if someone in the household gets bitten. Unless you're allergic to their venom, the bite of a tarantula isn't deadly, just very painful. Of course, there is the possibility Spike (and King) knows this, and really doesn't care. He just wants to introduce a little anarchy to the McCarthys. | |

No Adequate Punishment: Implied but subverted in "The Jaunt". The lawyer of a man who tossed his wife into a Jaunt machine without exit coordinates tries to sell the "there is no evidence she is actually dead, so my client is not a murderer" pitch to the jury, but the jury and the judge were horrified about the idea of the woman enduring a Fate Worse than Death if she had survived, so they voted "guilty" and the judge ordered the man's execution. | |
