Keeper Notes
- The film Stranger Aeons (2005 film) seems to suggest that this is a major tome in the possession of or accessible by first Ephraim Waite and then his daughter, useful for disrupting attempts to open the way for Yog-Sothoth but apparently not quite as dangerous as the Necronomicon (which should be avoided for this purpose). It evidently made its way into the forbidden books collection at the Orne Library.
