The Tomb of the Headless Kings is a room in Olmec's Temple. Here, a contestant must pull the vines to release their "bones" then place the Skull on the one of two kings to continue on. If there is a Temple Guard, he usually hides next to the door when the contestant enters the room. Whenever the bones fall onto the ground, a screaming sound is heard. Whenever the skull was placed on the proper king, the king says "IIII'mm Aliiiive" and glows red.

Notes

• Casey from The Snow Cone of Mount Kilimanjaro tried to put the skull on the king from the front.
• In The Lost Whale Bone of Pytheas, the Temple Guard, instead of exiting through the guard door, exits through the door to the Pit of the Pendulum.
• This was the last room where a Temple Guard was encountered in the series.
