is it possible to use "skeletons" refering to some persons for example ??
"Most of these skeletons were around."

my guessing was wrong, what it meant is:
skeleton - a scandal that is kept secret; "there must be a skeleton somewhere in that family's closet"

it is exactly what it meant in this context Very Happy

Perhaps if you were referring to a group of underweight supermodels lounging around a pool or a designer's showroom

... or people who were now less than welcome memories.

How are you going to use it?

I'm dealing with some texts about the intelligence agencies, so I don't think the idea of models will be appropriate Wink
