There is a skeleton dungeon on each of the 4 territory maps. It is the left side dungeon. You will want to craft a lot of doors. Simply go into a skeleton dungeon...you will know you are in the right place if there are skeletons walking around. Then double door yourself downwards till 4 skeletons spawn in groups instead of the 2 skeletons 1 rat. Once you are low enough, go around 1 hitting skeletons in the groups of 4. Rinse and repeat in the 4 different dungeons. Should take too long. I think I was getting 200-300 skeleton kills per dungeon run.
The dungeon marks where the spawns are with a little cave emblem on the map. For each of these emblems you should find enemies spawning in front of or near by.

Depending on how you play, this might be one of the last trophies you earn. Skeletons appear at night, in the deep levels of the Cave and in the Troll boss Dungeons. It's highly recommended you do Spider Lord before this trophy so you can be "done" with the Spider Dungeons and just work solely in the Skeleton/Troll Dungeons.
Each area has one Dungeon that is full of Skeleton trash mobs and Troll Bosses. They're located in the same spot in each area (the 2nd "construction" to the left of the Castle) but they look different from the outside. The Dungeons are as follows:
Ancient Bear Mound:
One-Eyed Wolf Forest:
Desert Eagle Moor:
The Ice Dragon Wastelands:
As mentioned, inside are a lot of Skeleton trash mobs. They start off in pairs of 2 and as you go lower, their patrol size will increase to 3 and then to 4. Be sure to take some doors in with you to create yourself a quicker path down. The are over 40 Levels to go down in these Dungeons so you'll be getting a pretty decent handful of Skeleton kills as you clear each one.
The Skeletons respawn after a few in-game days (and after an Earthquake happens) so if you've cleared the Dungeon, be sure to come back after a short time and you'll be able to kill the respawned Skeletons. You'll be needing to kill the Bosses for the shards anyways for Conung and Ascendant of Ragnar Lodbrok so you'll be making your way through these Dungeons a few times anyway.
Any kills you make with your Dragon will not count towards this trophy. You must be the one dealing the killing blow for all 1,000. As soon as you've killed your 1,000th Skeleton, the trophy will unlock.
