 The Necronomicon is a fictional book written by H.P. Lovecraft in the early 20th century in a series of short stories taking place in Massachusetts and related to the fictional Miskatonic University. It differs from the Egyptian or Tibetan books of the dead in that the Necronomicon was supposed to be used to summon the dead whereas actual books of the dead were to be memorized by the deceased and acted as a guidebook in their journey through the afterlife. The Lovecraft invention of the Necronomicon has no basis in fact and never existed except in fiction.
-Before the true nature of [[the Ceremony (ritual)|the Ceremony]] was revealed, there was a great deal of discussion about it involving some sort of communion with otherworldly entities or communication with another world. These discussions included the use of rituals to open gates to other worlds or realms, communication with the dead etc. Much of this came from references to ancient Egyptology. Other parts came from references to [[Aleister Crowley]]. Many suggested that the writers of LG were familiar with the Necronomicon.
