Skullrope

Skullropes are an enemy found in The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. They make their first and only appearance of the game in Thieves' Town, resulting only if Link pulls an incorrect switch. They have the exact same characteristics as the original Ropes, only these creatures have a skull where their head should be. Their only attack is running into Link for minimal damage, and they can easily be defeated with any of Link's weapons.
