Skeleton
A skeleton — the bare frame stripped of all flesh — often touches illness, misunderstanding, and injury from enemies, or useless worry if you are one. The dream may ask where something has been reduced to its grim bones, and whether the gaunt figure haunting you reflects a real coming trouble or a needless dread you'd do well to soften.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for skeleton, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To dream of seeing a skeleton, is prognostic of illness, misunderstanding and injury at the hands of others, especially enemies.
To dream that you are a skeleton, is a sign that you are suffering under useless worry, and should cultivate a milder disposition.
If you imagine that one haunts you, there will soon come to you a shocking accident or death, or the trouble may take the form of financial disaster.
