And He Needed To Let Go Of That Obsession - Tumblr Posts

Skulker went to Danny and Denny expected a fight

But Skulker only asked Danny for his help, Skulker wanted peace —as in rest in peace. He doesn't want to be a ghost much longer but he doesn't know how to complete his "Greatest Hunter" obsession, he isn't even sure if he's doing it right. Most ghosts don't.

Danny suggested to look his last with CW but no ghosts could find CW so Danny took it upon himself to look through it himself.

Skulker actually died as a child.

His father was a hunter.

Clockwork could only show Danny how Skulker died which is through starvation. Why starvation? Because during the hunting season, Skulker and his father were in the woods when the father was accidentally shot by another hunter. The hunter who shot the father ran away, not knowing that there was a child next to the bleeding father.

Skulker was sickly, frail and isn't really fit to hunt, he was even using prosthetic legs to help himself to walk.

Skulker tried to get help but the father stopped him, saying that it's too dangerous and that bears and reindeers could be anywhere in this deep woods, and Skulker might get lost. So, in order for Skulker to survive, the father used up his very last energy to find a hiding spot for the boy to wait out for any rescuers.

Rescuers didn't come and Skulker could only weep and cuddle on his father's corpse. It felt like he was home again, safe and sound with his father.
