The Necronomicon is the name of a grimoire (book of shadows) invented by the writer H. P. Lovecraft. The name combines Greek words nekros 'the dead', nomos 'law', eikon 'image'. Because of the relatively recent surge in popularity in Lovecraft's works, people have created grimoires using materials from other sources to try to match his description and labeled them Necronomicon, but books with the name have no authenticity.

Answer
Most people know the Necronomicon from the writer H.P. Lovecraft. The book does not exist phisically, but some people say it exists in the astral world and you can access it through dreams and astral travel. All the books that can be bought from the stores or download off the internet are fakes. There are many different versions of it, each claiming to be the 'real' one. The legend says that if you read the real book, you will just become insane.
Answer
The Necronomicon is an ancient spell and summoning book. I have a copy that I printed off of the Internet (it can be found online). It has many Sumerian gods and demons and their sigils. The summoning itself can be very dangerous (some people say the book is a curse, too, but I've been fine with it). It is probably not something a Christian parent would want their children playing with all the time.
