The Treasure Skeleton is a character from the Pirates of the Caribbean attraction.
History[]
Background[]
This skeleton was a member of the Wicked Wench crew at some point during the 18th century around the time that they established a base in Dead Man's Cove on Isla Tesoro where they stashed their blood-money.
Due to the curse of the treasure they stole from Puerto Dorado, the crew of the Wench was all killed and left as skeletons and ghosts in their lair. The Treasure Skeleton was a victim of this curse, having been left in his bed while examining a treasure-map.
Development History[]
When the attraction first opened, all of the skeletons in the grotto scenes were represented by real skeletons due to the limitations of props at the time.
Appearances[]
Pirates of the Caribbean[]
In the Disneyland, and Tokyo Disneyland versions of the attraction, the Treasure Skeleton appears in a treasure cave section of the cavern sequence. He could be seen sitting on top of a pile of gold, and holding pieces of doubloons. Removed ghostly narration spoke of the Treasure Skeleton and his curse.
