• The Necronomicon "Real Book" Theory

  The Necronomicon "Real Book" theory holds that H.P. Lovecraft’s references to the Necronomicon and the entities surrounding it were not purely fictional inventions, but disguised disclosures of an actual occult text, hidden tradition, or ancient-gods network operating beneath modern society. The theory grew from the vivid pseudo-scholarly detail Lovecraft gave the book, the way later writers repeated and expanded its references, and the appearance of spurious printed "Necronomicons" that blurred the line between invention and artifact. In stronger versions, Lovecraft is treated as a fiction writer only on the surface, while in reality serving as a transmitter of forbidden information about an old order of cosmic powers and their surviving earthly custodians. This made the Necronomicon one of the most famous fictional books ever reclassified by believers as secret nonfiction.
