A powerful ally to the forces of evil – skillful and ruthless fighters. The Skull Worshipper is precisely that – their dwellings are said to be adorned with skulls, by those who have lived to escape. - Abydos Museum

Trivia
- The Skull Worshippers are first seen at the Mysterious Location in a group of three.
- This fight can sometimes be tricky, requiring the player to seperate the trio before striking.
- This difficulty, as well as the reward of a Gold Ankh, can consider them to be the first boss battle.
- They have not been seen to have the ability to summon a spirit, despite what the game manual says. That power belongs to the Skull Swordsman.
