All the things you really needed to know about the Necronomicon (or maybe not).
This, of coarse, is not a complete list but rather an inspisational sampling. Meditation upon the various things mentioned in the Mythos will permit the scholor to draw his own conclusions; research upon the etymology of both Lovecraft's and Crowley's respective literature enables the occultist to discover the ancient Names and Numbers for much of his own, familiar, material.
Our research indicates that the Necronomicon is a book of evil lore which first appeared in the works of the writer H. P. Lovecraft (1890-1937). This book became so popular that people started to write more stories featuring it, creating hoaxes, and finally writing entire Necronomicons (at the present writing, almost a dozen have appeared).
