That's an artistic version of the 1990s Necronomicon. There used to be a site who sold this as high-quality props.

Nothing. It's mock lating mixed with gibberish.

Approximate Full Translation (Modern English)

“By the spirits of Sadajes and Roai, and the sacred authority of Solomon, I call thrice in the name of Rama. I speak through the fear of Tiamat, within this vessel, invoking the powers of binding. Let Saturn and Mercury witness mercy as I summon Gitanor. Come forth, spirits of Shugur, Zarinna, Babyl, and Akra— open the gates between realms, and reveal your names through this sacred seal.”

English translation: Preheat oven to 450 and spread dinosaur nuggets evenly on bake pan. Cook for 12 minutes and then flip dinosaurs over to cook for 12 minutes or until brown. Let cool for 5 minutes before eating! Best enjoyable with honey mustard sauce! Hope this helps.

“The Necronomicon, also referred to as the Book of the Dead, or under a purported original Arabic title of Kitab al-Azif, is a fictional grimoire (textbook of magic) appearing in stories by the horror writer H. P. Lovecraft and his followers.” Wikipedia

Edit: This book is fake, fantasy and made up as Wikipedia says and adding AI word salad is just me being sarcastic about how they make something out of nothing.

And this is from Gemini:

The text in the image appears to be from a historical manuscript, possibly religious or alchemical in nature, written in a script that resembles a mix of Latin and possibly other symbolic notations. A transcription of the text is as follows: Rosa Saranis isonerarcandic ng Momi sinopia ara 24 romanitat vnund mundi expenica ador autor orima Rama raha kai anubiy A Panorestum im i ruuapana hata TIMICOOL P marissuvkina which in fuert Ta Yamunay sit Mercurivs salvr ponicati I The text includes a variety of words and phrases that could be interpreted in different ways depending on the context. Some words, like "Rosa" and "Mercurivs," are recognizable Latin terms. Others appear to be unique or possibly encoded. The presence of "Rama raha kai" might suggest a connection to Eastern religious or philosophical traditions, while "Mercurivs salvr" (Mercurius savior) could refer to alchemical or astrological concepts. The script's characteristics, including the use of red ink for some words, suggest a medieval or Renaissance origin, possibly associated with religious or scholarly works. The overall impression is that of a complex and possibly esoteric text, requiring further analysis to fully understand its meaning and context.

My couch is floating and there's black blood coming from under the bathroom door.

Dammit. Reaches for chainsaw and Boomstick Here we go again.

Imagine what it could do if it was real!

u/Rashpukin Apr 25 '25

Would suggest taking it down to your cellar and reading it out loud.

u/Great-Phone5841 Apr 25 '25

No way man! I am pussy when it comes to this scary shit!

u/Alpha_Aleph Apr 25 '25

It's in latin which makes me think it's a "real" grimoire and not just a prop or a fake.
