  Amazon.com: H. R. Giger's Necronomicon: Books: H. R. Giger   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
The Shaft pictures, which I began to produce around 1966, have their origin in my dreams I was sleeping badly at the time and was pursued by a series of nightmares.
Not only is such confrontation healthy, it may very well be essential, and Giger is a skilled tour guide when it comes to areas of the mind and psyche that not many artists have dared to explore.
The second Necronomicon volume is a worthy companion to this one, but if you must have only one Giger book this is the one I recommend.

  Necronomicon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Necronomicon is the title of a fictional text in the works of American fantasy/horror author H.P. Lovecraft and other writers in the Cthulhu Mythos genre of horror fiction.
The Necronomicon was first mentioned in Lovecraft's 1924 short story "The Hound", written in 1922, though its purported author, the "mad Arab" Abdul Alhazred, had been quoted a year earlier in Lovecraft's "The Nameless City".

Necronomicon Page 2- In the room where all the furniture is attacking you, the bathroom on the left (when facing all three doors) has the scroll.
Necronomicon Page 5- As you walk along, you'll hear some loud noises and Ash will say "What the Hell?" There should be a blocked door with tree branches over it and a creek to the left.
Necronomicon Page 16- Once you get to the room with the wheel that opens one door and closes the other, you'll see several doors that can be opened with the Boom-Lance.

 Библиотека Luksian key | About Necronomicon.
It is generally believed by Lovecraft scholars that the Necronomicon was created as a literary device by HPL for his fiction.
According to the Necronomicon the Earth was once ruled by the Old Ones, powerful beings from other worlds or other dimensions.
HPL in _the Dunwich Horror_ attributes this quote to the Necronomicon "Nor is it to be thought, that man is either the oldest or the last of Earth's masters, or that the common bulk of life and substance walks alone.

 The Necronomicon FAQ   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
Innocently asking what the Necronomicon is, they become the butt of numerous jokes, get caught in flamewars, and leave their questions mostly unanswered and their information confused and incomplete.
The Gates of the Necronomicon is a purported "introduction to the system," which supposedly takes one step by step through each part of the gate walking initiation which is described in the Necronomicon.
The Hay Necronomicon will also have a sequel in December, called "The R'lyeh Text", which supposedly is a translation of the second half of the book (the Necronomicon part is only the first half, so claims Wilson).

 Necronomicon Novum   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
Necronomicon is a Latin spelling of a word from Greek roots meaning "a/the thing relating to or conforming with the law(s)/custom(s) of the dead" (nekro- + nomikon); it does not refer to the names of the dead (which could be Necronomina in mixed Greek/Latin).
Thus I take the Necronomicon to be a book, coming through the Greek or Roman tradition, which gives something relating to the laws of the dead.
Book X of his Description of Greece [28.1-29.1] Pausanius describes the monumental painting by Polygnotus that depicts the Land of the Dead in all its horror; from it was copied the faded fresco in the gloomy tomb of Orco II of Tarquinii.

 The Necronomicon Anti-FAQ
Parts of the Necronomicon were translated into Hebrew (probably in 1664) and circulated in manuscript form, accompanied by an extensive commentary by Nathan of Gaza, mystical apologist for the pseudo-messiah Sabbatai Tzevi.
In the years from 1933-38 the few known copies of the Necronomicon simply disappeared; someone in the German government of Adolf Hitler took an interest in obscure occult literature and began to obtain copies by fair means or foul.
The current whereabouts of copies of the Necronomicon is unknown, but there is a story of a large wartime cache of occult and magical documents in the mountainous Osterhorn area near Salzburg - this may be connected with the recurring story of a copy bound in the skin of concentration camp victims.

Necronomicon apparently was used as a name for the league organization sponsored by Weird Tales, from which the Washington Outsiders descended.
Certain usage distinguishes the newszine, a fanzine full of news, from the newsletter, often no more than a flier, often put out by convention/conference committees to report on local activities.
(But Bob Tucker's Bloomington/SF News Letter was full of general news.) Before and during World War II they ordinarily appeared weekly, but there have been triweeklies (once every three weeks) and there was a publication by McPhail in the quarterly FAPA mailing which called itself a news sheet.

This book, as well as the first Necronomicon volume, delves deep into the subconscious and comes up with fists full of squirming demons and violent yet artful sexual imagery.
Some people are so repulsed by these "shadowed" parts of the psyche that they condemn Giger's art in general, while others wallow in the decay and degradation he depicts, believing it to be a mirror of the world they see around them.
If you are considering buying this book, first of all be forewarned: it is graphic and disturbing, but if you're looking at Giger books to begin with you probably already knew that.
