The Necronomicon

"A leather bound grimoire purported to be the John Dee copy of the Necronomicon. Discovered in a crypt in London by Dr. Killian, most of the text is written in Latin with a few passages in Old English. Included are numerous illustrations of the Elder and Outer Gods as well as several chants and diagrams intended for summoning. Much of the books contents are enigmatic and several of Killian's subsequent protege's spent many years attempting to decipher them.
This is the first time The Killian Foundation has allowed the "Dee Necronomicon" to be photographed."

Constructed completely by hand with a hand-stitched leather cover. Each of the 148 pages has been hand-printed with custom made heat transfers and linoleum block prints. Book measures 9 inches by 12 inches and in 2.5 inches thick.

Created for the Off Broadway production of H.P. Lovecraft's "The Hound".
