Necronomicon: The Wanderings of Alhazred

"Upon these leaves are to be found accounts of living creatures beyond the higher spheres of lost cities and other places forgotten by the memory of mankind; yet more pernicious still, the manner of summoning the souls of the dead back into their mortal clay, and eliciting from them by means of torment secrets that lie hidden at the roots of the world, in dark caverns and beneath the depths of the seas. Here also are instructions on the making of things quickened with a semblance of live, that were better left unmade, but cannot be unmade unmade having been created...

Keep you all copies made of this Latin text chained and locked. Let no man who reads it speak of its contents, and let know man who knoes of it reveal its existence to the ignorant, who are unfit to carry so grave a burden ... Better his eyes were put out with glowing coals from the fire and his lips sewn tight with flaxen thread than he should read the words in this book writen in the forgotten tongue that was never meant to be spoken by the sons of Adam, but only by the others who have no mouths, and who dwell in the shadows between the stars."

- Olaus Wormius, in the Preface to the 13th Century Latin translation of the Necronomicon

"In recent years, several editions of the Necronomicon have appeared, each purporting to be the veritable book, but none succeeds in capturing the mystery and horror of the quest for forbidden wisdom of its author, Abdul Alhazred. I have spent my life writing about the arcane, and my sense of kinship with the mad Arab has led me to offer my own rendition of his teaching, so that his name will be remembered - for Alhazred is the Necronomicon, and the book is written in his blood." - Donald Tyson
