Skeleton Pirates

The Skeleton Pirates are minor villains in the film.

After Mr. Centipede gets caught, one of the pirates that was named Paul Bunyan as a viking tried, and failed to cut centipede in half.

With the help of Mr. Centipede, Miss Spider and James escaped with a compass. It appeared that Centipede got killed, but he came out with the captain's hat and sword.

It's unknown if the Skeleton Pirates are still alive after the battle.

Trivia

 * The Skeleton Pirate Captain bears a strong resemblance to Jack Skellington from The Nightmare Before Christmas due to the interchangable heads used for Jack Skellington being reused for the Pirate Captain.
 * One of the pirates is very similar to Donald Duck.
