To translate from Goblin....

The current event has 4 different base colors, and 5 different bone forms.

The colors are default white (off-white for the new styles), orange/dark gold, red, and an olive-ish green. Red appears to be the most rare, but as the RNG is as prone to streaks as it has always been, I got 2 red skeletons (of friends - still have none for myself) from consecutive kills in 1 graveyard. They probably spawned simultaneously.

The bone types are as follows:
3 "old-style" skeletons that have been used for bone containers for years. The easiest way to describe them are "stretched out", "pile with skull to North", and "pile with skull to West". See the pic below. In the right side "body", the gold skeletons are "pile with skull to north", and the one in the south corner is the "pile with skull to west". The "stretched out" one is (obviously) the one at the roughly 4-5 o'clock position in the container.

There are 2 "new-style" skeletons, new for 2017.
One, which can drop for all three races, are the ones in the left container (which is also the container in the 10 o'clock position in the right container). Note that the left container has the base color, gold and green variants.
The other is gargoyle-specific, and is a variation of the other, but with wing bones (looks sort of like the oddball winged skeleton from the $1 plastic skeletons pack you can buy each year at Dollar General stores when halloween stuff is put on the shelves - I'd look for that pic but someone will probably post a picture of the actual in-game bones before I could find it). I don't have any gargoyles, and have only looted one of them personally (that I gave to the friend whose name they bore).

Note: In previous years' halloweens, the three old-style bones spawned in Blue, Pink, and maybe other colors. But, I only have blue and pink ones that I can confirm.

The previous Bones event had a red and black speckled set of bones as well as red, pink and blue. This year there was a rare chance at red in both sets of bones the old and the new.

Here's a screenshot of the zendo in the wandering healers refuge showing the red winged bones.

DON'T DRINK THE COOL-AID!!!!!
If anyone has sat zazen for a long period of time they would find the screenshot hilarious. During the first few days there are often moments where you feel like the screenshot is an accurate description of how you feel.

Just so you know, it's actually KOOL-AID.
Feel free to check your grammar on Google,
because I would hate to see you go into a comma.... Oops I actually mean, a coma!

You know it's a shame, until you chose to attack me (A newbie here)
for my lack of grammar skills in another post, even though, since you posted to correct me & in the past, you have not been perfect with your grammar, nor spelling.

I recently thought of YOU as amazing for your research & posts Years ago, that I have used to help my chars to train. (You certainly weren't perfect in you grammar, nor spelling)

Seriously, in these current times, with everyone posting from phones etc, the "Grammar Police", have to just let stuff slide.... Things are getting worse & worse.
& I posted just before I went to bed & was extremely weary....
Sorry I offended you enough, so you felt the need to Grandstand & chastise me.

You do seem to have an affinity for the comma... however I have one for ellipsis... so can't really talk. Not that I would anyway I would never imply I was great at spelling or grammar.

And it wasn't even REAL Kool-Aid, but a knock-off brand (Flav-R-Aid, IIRC). The makers of Kool-Aid HATE people associating their product with Jones debacle....

if you've read my post over the years then you should know im a smartass.
taking anything i say serious is 'end user error' and i cant be held responsible for that.
have you tried to power your Poo off and on again to see if that corrects the problem?

ok back on topic.
i went and took a couple screen shots of the individual skels and the colors as best i could from what i have and what i could steal (thanks @Basara and @Amber Witch )

ill post what i got here in a sec.
kinda strange that there isnt a section on the wiki about these.
or maybe there is, i can never find anything on that damn wiki.

ok, could only do what i had.
if other people have the missing ones post them then ill whip up a 'Mother of all Zombie Skeleton Bone Types' thread over in the old Rares Forum and tuck it safely away in the keepables in the back.

ok, lets get this rolling.
Three types of bones - Normal, Big New and Big New Garg. (see below)
Normal -> Head West, Head North, Stretched Out
Big New -> Head North, Head West
Big New Garg -> Head North, Head West

Colors - OLD -> White, Pink, Blue, RedBlack
Colors - NEW -> Off-White, Red, Green, Gold (all three types: Normal, Big New, Big New Garg)

when naming the bones since im in the medical field i just named them with everything, so its:
1) new or old
2) which direction of bones
3) which color
example -> New Head North Color Red (OCD itched soooooooo nice!)

Old Head West Color White

Old Color White all three together
