Fun fact in the original Lovecraft mythos the Necronomicons were normal ass books that just happened to hold eldritch and arcane knowledge. Im sure anyone who has had the misfortune of opening up a copy of Wealth of nations or Capital knows the feeling.
CitizenKong@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Well, normal is a stretch. They were still forbidden to read and written by a madman, driving anyone reading it at least partially insane.
Lovecraft was basing it on The King in Yellow by Robert Chambers. The character itseld also appears in the Lovecraft pantheon as Hastur.

I remember laughing so hard at that, when I saw in the theater, that everyone around me was like, “SSHHH!”
I couldn’t help it. That was one of the funniest things in the whole movie.

Evie became a rich adventurer badass married to Brendan Frasier, so it worked out alright for her.

Brendan Fraser. Wow, what a roller coaster. I’m glad he’s doing well again. I like him.

I have a necronomicon, but it has very basic binding, and I haven’t read it.
It was a housewarming gift that made me go “the fuck mate, you want me to die and leave the house to you or what?” Which was apparently the exact right response.

Naw, man, that’s just the cookbook that tells you how long to leave the one big crumb in the bottom of your air fryer.

The exception that proves the rule?
Wynnstan@lemmy.world 6 months ago
I often judge a book by it’s cover, because the back cover usually tells me what the book is about.

Fuck Lovecraft.
Anyways, I started reading The Light Fantastic and I spotted a parody called “Necrotelicomnicon” which is described of pages made of lizard skin.
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 6 months ago
That’s from the Evil Dead movies (and TV series). It was inspired by Lovecraft, in that the book is called the Necronomicon, but that’s about as far as it goes.
RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Technically its the “Necronomicon ex Mortis”. Which of course means “Book of the Dead of the Dead”
hopesdead@startrek.website 6 months ago
Still, don’t like that the name is shared.

The plot of Evil Dead Rise wouldn’t have happened either if they followed this simple rule
NOPper@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Just like Evil Dead, it’s those damn Devil made phonographs causing all this ruckus!

Depends, if this is a personal curse or like a curse on humanity as a whole.
Because of its humanity as a whole I might just open it anyways ya know just to keep things interesting. Gotta be better than what the rich fucks are doing ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯
