An ensouled monkey head is an item which can be dropped by monkeys. It is used to gain Prayer experience by using the level 16 Magic spell Basic Reanimation from the Arceuus spellbook, granting 32 Magic experience.

Ensouled heads can be reanimated anywhere as long as the head is on the ground within the 31x31 area centred on its initial drop location and has not been put into the bank, trade screen, Grand Exchange, or price checker.^[1]^[2] Otherwise, it must be taken to the Dark Altar in Arceuus to be reanimated.

Killing the reanimated monkey gives 182 Prayer experience.

The version obtained from the dragon can be reanimated in the same area that it was dropped. It's untradeable. If you try to put it in the trade screen or GE, it transforms to a tradeable version that can only reanimate at the Dark Altar."
