| Examine text | A giant, skeletal hand - I don't think I should offer to shake hands. |
Skeletal hands appear in the Meiyerditch Dungeon, together with Mutated bloodvelds and Zombie hands. Even though it's not aggressive by itself, at any time when you are in the dungeon, one might fall from the ceiling or crawl from underground and start attacking you. The Meiyerditch Dungeon can only be accessed during and after the Legacy of Seergaze quest.
Skeletal hands may be killed instead of Crawling hands and Skeletons for Slayer tasks, yielding more experience and better drops. Attacking skeletal hands will occasionally cause skeletal hands hanging from ceiling or buried in the ground to appear and attack you. They can deal considerable damage for their level, so food or Protect from Melee may be helpful.
Tip: Use Salve Amulet or Salve amulet (e)with a slashing weapon to increase damage inflicted on these opponents.

Trivia
- When this monster falls from the ceiling and emerges from the floor, it could be a reference to Wallmasters and Floormasters from the Legend of Zelda series.
- It is unknown how these drop corpses as they appear to have no flesh whatsoever.
