The Necronomicon

The Necronomicon — a forbidden text or fragment; chained stacks only, never interlibrary loan. Register ME-1935-W31/8263.

Overview

Expedition register ME-1935-W31/8263 — cross-index under slug `the-necronomicon`.

We would delete The Necronomicon if deletion worked; instead we classify, cross-link, and warn.

The Necronomicon enters the archive under protest from reason and with sponsorship from repeated evidence.
