A character has a skull for a head. This may be because the character is a supernatural being, or due to some disfigurement that makes that character’s head look like a skull. Occasionally used to make a robot look menacing, with a skull instead of a head — see SkeleBot 9000, although this also covers robots whose whole bodies look like skeletons. Fully human characters may paint their faces to look like skulls; done right, this can appear almost as terrifying as the real thing, or arguably even more so. In all cases of this trope, the rest of the body is relatively normal (i.e., not an animated skeleton.) A subtrope of Skeletal Appendage. See also Dem Bones, Flaming Skulls, Flying Face, Scary Skeleton, and Skeletons in the Coat Closet. Supertrope to Sinister Deer Skull when said skull is a head, usually connotes a connection to nature. Often overlaps with Obviously Evil. Depending on if it moves, it could possibly be an Expressive Skull. If the rest of their body is attractive, this could be an extreme case of Butterface. |

The Graven in Sunless Skies are prominent figures in the Blue Kingdom, usually working as administrators and judges in several Courts. All the skin of their head and neck have been thoroughly peeled off leaving a bare skull that had been encrusted with countless gemstones. It had been mentioned that they can abandon their status, which will have them grow their faces back. | |

After a lengthy stay in Arkham Asylum, in which the doctors decided to curtail his dream powers by making him unable to dream (and consequently sleep, not that the doctors cared), he reappears in The Sandman (1989) as an emaciated ghoul with a similar motif. | |

In Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, Raiden is introduced wearing a full-face rebreather/helmet that resembles a skull. The complete sneaking suit is even referred to as a "Skull Suit". In addition, during the end section of the game, the Colonel Campbell who Raiden is taking orders from is revealed to be an impostor. It is actually an AI created by the Patriots called GW. GW's identity is revealed when it is hit with a major computer virus that causes a number of malfunctions. While most of these malfunctions are Played for Laughs, one seriously creepy effect of the virus is to cause Glamor Failure and reveal GW's true head: a skull. Once GW is outed, Raiden can still talk to it, but the malfunction will make it flash between its Campbell disguise and its skull-head form while being much more antagonistic. | |

Dark Souls: The Taurus Demon is a large minotaur-like monster with a skeletal head. The Capra Demon appears to have a goat-like skull for a head, but it's ambiguous whether its head is actually a skull or if it's just worn as a helmet. The Darkwraiths, the former knights of New Londo succumbed to the Dark. They wore skull masks with a hood that merged with their faces over time. |

Zephetto in Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis uses the eye sockets and nasal bridge of a skull to represent himself when talking with Manon. What makes this creepier is when he is defeated, his face plate breaks away and reveals an actual crystal skull beneath it. What keeps him from being Obviously Evil is that while his methods were ghastly, his motives were anything but, and ultimately justified when the Starless he prepared for actually came back. | |

Skeletor in He-Man and the Masters of the Universe (1983) and its reboot. In the earlier continuity, he was simply a guy whose head looked like a skull; in one episode of The New Adventures of He-Man we even see that he has some hair up top. In the 2002 series, however, Keldor's face was melted off by a vial of acid — his life was saved by Hordak, but at the cost of his head now being a skull floating above his shoulders. He also loses his face in the 2021 series due to the power of Havoc. | |

Johannes Cabal: The demon Ratuth Slabuth appears as an eye-watering mass of Alien Geometries topped with a horse skull, on which he wears a Roman centurion helmet. He's quite insulted when someone mistakes it for a cow skull in the fifth book. | |

From the SCP Foundation comes SCP-1471, AKA "MalO" (sic). It's a freeware mobile app that when downloaded, causes you to see a huge creature appear in your peripheral vision through windows and mirrors, which looks like a giant humanoid monster covered in shaggy black fur and a canine skull for a head with glowing white eyes. The image that inspired the SCP is actually a picture of a furry wearing a skullsuit. Note that, despite her appearance, MalO herself is a Non-Malicious Monster who is only interested in platonic companionship. | |

King from The Owl House is a dog-like creature of unknown species whose face looks like he is wearing a canine skull mask without a lower jaw. It apparently is part of his head as he never takes the "mask" off and he still has it even when he was still in an egg. The titan trappers also have this appearance. It turns out that the titan trappers are not King's species, but are actually cultists who hunt titans and wear their skulls as part of their costumes, and King is a titan. | |

Ghost Rider has one that's on fire. However, it can vary from Rider to Rider as to whether it's just the skull, or if it's the whole skeleton. Dormammu, also from the Marvel Universe, has a Flaming Skull head as well, albeit his isn't quite as skull-like and is harder to make out because the flames totally engulf it. |

Dungeons & Dragons: The Gambado, introduced back in the 1st Edition Field Folio, is a subversion - its actual head has specialized muscles allowing it to secure and wear another creature's skull as a helmet. Then it digs a pit deep enough to rest its skull-wearing head on ground level, to pass itself off as another bit of dungeon detritus until prey approaches. Hence their nickname, "springing skulls of doom." One of more freakish monsters in Forgotten Realms is "lichling". A 6'' cockroach with human arms and legs and skull-for-a-head, feeding on the fear, immune to normal weapons and thus hilariously lethal. It can slowly grow to 80' long, but is likely to be destroyed sooner. They're spawned by demiliches. In thousands. Black dragons are sometimes nicknamed "skull dragons" because as they age, their acidic breath degrades the flesh and scales around their face, which combined with their already sunken eyes gives them a distinctly skull-like appearance. Krenshars are catlike wolf-hyenas with uncanny control over their facial musculature, allowing them to pull back their own skin, exposing their bare skulls and sinew. This combined with a well-timed roar is usually enough to send other creatures running, a trick krenshars use to flush prey into ambushes. In Module I12 Egg of the Phoenix, the cleric MacKurian's dead body has a cow's skull attached to it. It is later changed into a revenant form and occupied by MacKurian's spirit, leading to the final confrontation with Doc. |

Mortal Kombat: Some incarnations of Scorpion depict him as having a skull for a head that's sometimes on fire. It's never made clear whether this is a supernatural power of his or if that is his actual head now. Scorpion's fellow undead Noob Saibot has an alternate costume in Mortal Kombat 4 that gives him one, too. Along with his shadow powers and Sinister Scythe, it makes him look a lot like The Grim Reaper. |

One of more freakish monsters in Forgotten Realms is "lichling". A 6'' cockroach with human arms and legs and skull-for-a-head, feeding on the fear, immune to normal weapons and thus hilariously lethal. It can slowly grow to 80' long, but is likely to be destroyed sooner. They're spawned by demiliches. In thousands. | |

The Atomic Skull (Joe Martin and Albert Michaels) from Superman. Both of the men have skull wreathed in atomic fire, but very different powers. The former has superhuman strength, agility and endurance which he can further empower with the same energy that he shoots from his hands and mouth. The latter has superhuman strength and stamina, but his main power is using his own bio-electricity to shoot beams of atomic energy from his visor with his radium-powered brain implant. | |

BattleTech: The archetypal 100 ton assault mech, the Atlas, features a head stylized after a human skull. Making it "as ugly and foreboding as conceivable" was explicit part of the design specs. The numerous successor models and derivatives like the Akuma keep the motif. The Banshee is only 5 tons lighter than the Atlas and also features an angular screaming skull face◊. This trope plus Cephalothorax gives us the Ursus, best described as a Humongous Mecha with a skull for a torso that also happens to look like a giant head with arms and legs. |

Black End, the final kaiju from Ultraman Leo, and also the most powerful of the Saucer Beasts spawned from the Black Star, has a reptilian-insectoid hybrid body, and a head resembling a draconic skull. Mensch Heit from Ultraman Neos, the overarching villain responsible for the various kaiju outbreak throughout the series, had a skull-like face complete with horns to emphasize its Satanic Archetype nature. Etelgar the Space-Time Demon from Ultraman Ginga (specifically, the Big Damn Movie, Ultraman Ginga S The Movie: Showdown! The 10 Ultra Warriors!) have a skull-like face as well, which he hides with a scarf until Ultraman Zero burns it off. In the final episode of Ultraman Geed, Ultraman Belial, the major villain of the Ultra franchise as a whole, finally gains his ultimate form, as Ultraman Belial Atrocious with his face resembling an exposed Ultraman skull. |

Warhammer: Necromunda: The 2nd Edition models for Ratskin Renegade Chiefs and Totem Warriors wear the skulls of Necromundan Giant Rats as helmets to complement their rat pelt capes and to infuse themselves with the rat’s spirit. Warhammer 40,000: The skull is the traditional symbol of Astartes Chaplains and as such most will have skull-designed helms. Ortan Cassius, the highest ranked Chaplain of the Ultramarines, goes further, although not willingly — a lot of his actual skull is visible, thanks to a close encounter with Tyranid bio-acid, and it's only thanks to cybernetics that he can even see. To add to their sinister nature, and increase the psychological impact of their assaults, the helmets worn by Primaris Marine Reivers are designed to resemble skulls. Eversor Assassins wear full-face skull helms to enhance their horrific appearance as it is part of their mission to spread fear through the enemy ranks. High ranking officers of Armageddon Steel Legion Astra Militarum regiments will often have their gasmasks fashioned into the form of a skull to intimidate and unnerve their enemies. The most famous such gasmask is the 8th Edition Relic the Skull Mask of Acheron that strikes fear into the hearts of the superstitious Orks. Warhammer Fantasy: The Beastman charachter Molokh Slugtongue, an emaciated and withered famine-shaman, has a fleshless head consisting of a fanged skull crowned by twisted horns. Incarnate Elementals of Beasts have bestial, tusked and antlered skulls for heads. Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay: One mutation that can be inflicted by Chaos exposure liquefies the victim's facial flesh, leaving a bare skull. It's not debilitating but does penalize their Fellowship score. |

Warhammer 40,000: The skull is the traditional symbol of Astartes Chaplains and as such most will have skull-designed helms. Ortan Cassius, the highest ranked Chaplain of the Ultramarines, goes further, although not willingly — a lot of his actual skull is visible, thanks to a close encounter with Tyranid bio-acid, and it's only thanks to cybernetics that he can even see. To add to their sinister nature, and increase the psychological impact of their assaults, the helmets worn by Primaris Marine Reivers are designed to resemble skulls. Eversor Assassins wear full-face skull helms to enhance their horrific appearance as it is part of their mission to spread fear through the enemy ranks. High ranking officers of Armageddon Steel Legion Astra Militarum regiments will often have their gasmasks fashioned into the form of a skull to intimidate and unnerve their enemies. The most famous such gasmask is the 8th Edition Relic the Skull Mask of Acheron that strikes fear into the hearts of the superstitious Orks. |

At the end of Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, the Final Boss Dark Samus looks like this. Due to Samus defeating her and causing her to blow up on two separate occasions earlier in the game, along with logbook scans noting that her form was unstable to begin with (hence her Horror Hunger throughout the game), she has not had time to properly repair herself before her final chance to confront you. Thus, when she makes one last-ditch effort to kill Samus, her armor is transparent, revealing a mouth-less skull underneath the helmet vaguely resembling the face of her original self of the Metroid Prime's core form, showing that she has a partially-human-looking form underneath the armor from absorbing Samus's DNA. | |

The inhabitants of Tostarena in Super Mario Odyssey have heads themed on the Mexican decorated sugar skulls associated with the DÃa de los Muertos celebration. Unlike most other examples of this trope, however, they are absolutely not threatening at all and are a very friendly, energetic people. The Chinchos, on the other hand, are zombie-like enemies that closely resemble Tostarenans and are hostile and dangerous. | |

The Master does this in the Doctor Who finale The End of Time. Due to an accident during his resurrection, he's burning up life-energy faster than he can take it in, which results in his skull showing through his skin. He had a skull-like face earlier, in "The Deadly Assassin," but it applies even more here, because the Tenth Doctor even calls him "Skeletor." | |

Call of Duty: The icon for the Veteran difficulty in Call of Duty: World at War (helpfully demonstrated with the page image for NightmareFuel.Call Of Duty) is of a soldier whose head was reduced to his skull, possibly as a warning of the sheer hell the player will experience. Call of Duty: Black Ops has a similar icon where a man stands in front of some flames and is missing a good chunk of his skull. Modern Warfare features Ghost, who wears an iconic skull mask. Ghost was so popular that his mask became the inspiration for the titular unit of Call of Duty: Ghosts, who all wear custom skull masks. |

The Horned King from The Black Cauldron is a horned variation. While he's an undead evil sorcerer, the rest of his body looks quite normal compared to his positively skull-like head. That this appears to be his actual is a change from the book, where the Horned King was only described wearing a mask resembling a skull with stag antlers grafted to it. | |

She-Ra and the Princesses of Power: Hordak doesn't quite have a skull for a head, but his face is clearly designed to evoke one. His head is mostly white, but the white portion narrows under his eyes and leaves his cheeks grey, giving his face a skull-like outline. Additionally, he has an inverted V for a nose and his chin has some Facial Markings that are faintly reminiscent of a skull's teeth, and his red eyes are surrounded by darkness... although since that's eye makeup, it can only be assumed that Hordak gets up in the morning, looks at his reflection, and decides that if he's going to look like a necromancer's in-tray anyway he may as well accentuate it. | |

Masters of the Universe: Skeletor in He-Man and the Masters of the Universe (1983) and its reboot. In the earlier continuity, he was simply a guy whose head looked like a skull; in one episode of The New Adventures of He-Man we even see that he has some hair up top. In the 2002 series, however, Keldor's face was melted off by a vial of acid — his life was saved by Hordak, but at the cost of his head now being a skull floating above his shoulders. He also loses his face in the 2021 series due to the power of Havoc. She-Ra and the Princesses of Power: Hordak doesn't quite have a skull for a head, but his face is clearly designed to evoke one. His head is mostly white, but the white portion narrows under his eyes and leaves his cheeks grey, giving his face a skull-like outline. Additionally, he has an inverted V for a nose and his chin has some Facial Markings that are faintly reminiscent of a skull's teeth, and his red eyes are surrounded by darkness... although since that's eye makeup, it can only be assumed that Hordak gets up in the morning, looks at his reflection, and decides that if he's going to look like a necromancer's in-tray anyway he may as well accentuate it. |

Skully/Cranicola of Brazilian comic Monica's Bug-a-booo is an extreme case: he's a skull that lost its body and lies atop a rock. | |

The hybrid alien from Alien: Resurrection has what can only be described as a skull face. H. R. Giger designed the original Xenomorph costume with a human skull partially visible underneath that smooth bubble head, though it was only barely visible in the original film due to the opaque materials and lighting. Some of the costumes used in the rest of the Alien franchise over the years continued that tradition, and a few Xenomorph designs even had the skull showing through more clearly. |

The returning monster, Gabora from Shin Ultraman, now has its face depicted in a skull-like visage, hidden behind its head petals, a trait absent in its two previous incarnations. | |

Bludgeon tends to have this; in The Transformers (Marvel) it's just the face of his Pretender shell, but the movie version has this as his main robot head. His Pretender compatriot Skullgrin also has a skull-like head on his Pretender shell, though his resembles a demonic bull rather than a human skull. | |

Kong: Skull Island: The Skullcrawlers have bony armor on their heads causing them to resemble this trope. They also have a pair of large sockets in the sides of their snouts, resembling the eye openings of a skull, though their real eyes are located further back (the sockets probably hold sensory organs, or serve to distract enemies from their actual eyes.) | |

Mighty Max: Skull Master has this going for him. He's also twice as big as the next largest character, voiced by Tim Curry, and utterly terrifying. From the same series is Cyber-Skull, though he's actually a computer nerd who digitized himself to take over the Company that screwed him over on a game. In his second appearance, he tries to return to the physical world in a giant robotic body styled after his avatar, complete with skull for a head. |

While the original character was just a guy in a omni-present skull mask, some versions of Captain America's Arch-Enemy the Red Skull qualify: After having his consciousness transferred into a cloned duplicate of Captain America's body, the original Red Skull accidentally inhaled a dose of his own "Dust of Death" — a chemical similar in effect to Joker Venom. Ordinarily, the Red Skull's dust kills its victim, while also transforming the head into a red skull. In this case, due to his cloned body's Super-Soldier Serum, the Skull didn't die, but merely gained an actual red skull for a face. The Red Skull's daughter, Sin, suffered a similar fate, but her face looks like a red skull due to relatively "normal" disfigurement — an explosion and severe burn damage. His Ultimate counterpart is Captain America's sociopathic son who skinned his head because of his resemblance to his father. |

The Strange Tales of Oscar Zahn: A defining trait for the titular paranormal investigator, though to many he appears as a regular (if a bit eccentric) human instead. His skull is also host to an ectoplasm-devouring Eldritch Abomination named Zon and is apparently responsible for Oscar being the way he is. | |
