The rulebook's Monster States section says a ready monster in an investigator's space engages that investigator.

A ready monster engages the investigator in its space, whether you moved in, it spawned there, or it readied while you shared its space during the Monster Phase. Exhausted monsters never engage, and Elusive monsters do not engage on arrival.
