Necronomicon is the book that never existed or at least that is what I believe even though more than a dozen of books claims to be the original translation. You can find lots of sites discussing the Necronomicon especially in the satanistic and urban shamanistic corners of the Internet. The myth that was brought forward by H. P. Lovecraft in his book History of the Necronomicon which is generally considered pseudo-history is about a book originally named Al Azif.

The line between fact and fiction was further blurred in the late 1970s when a book purporting to be a translation of "the real" Necronomicon was published. This book by the pseudonymous "Simon" had little connection to the fictional Lovecraft Mythos but instead was based on Sumerian mythology. It was later dubbed the "Simon Necronomicon". Going into trade paperback in 1980 it has never been out of print and has sold 800000 copies by 2006 making it the most popular Necronomicon to date.[citation needed] Despite its contents the book's marketing focused heavily on the Lovecraft connection and made sensational claims for the book's magical power. The blurb states it was "potentially the most dangerous Black Book known to the Western World". Three additional volumes have since been published — The Necronomicon Spellbook a book of pathworkings with the 50 names of Marduk; Dead Names: The Dark History of the Necronomicon a history of the book itself and of the late 1970s New York occult scene; and The Gates Of The Necronomicon instructions on pathworking with the Simon Necronomicon.
