Reanimate Monkey was a spell requiring 7 Magic and an ensouled monkey head to cast. This spell would summon a reanimated monkey with five hitpoints.

Upon killing the reanimated monkey players would gain 182 Prayer experience and 0.5% Arceuus favour. The spell could be cast anywhere across Gielinor, but only if the ensouled head was obtained as a drop from the respective monster, and the player were to cast it within an 31x31 area where that head was dropped by a monster. This worked indefinitely, even if the ensouled head was picked up, so long as it was not put into the bank, trade screen, Grand Exchange, or price checker.

If the player had put the head into the bank, trade screen, Grand Exchange, or price checker, the reanimation spell would only work within range of the Dark Altar.
