What's Inside the Original Evil Dead Necronomicon Prop!

Adam gets his hands on one of the original stunt Necronomicon props from Sam Raimi's Evil Dead II, worn and weathered as if it was just discovered in a tomb after being undisturbed for centuries. Adam and Propstore's Brandon Alinger marvel at the condition and sculpt of iconic latex cover, and peek inside the book to check out the incredible illustrations on the pages within!

Propstore's Entertainment Memorabilia Live Auction: Los Angeles Summer 2024

[maxwinD]

Never judge a book by its cover ... except this one!!!

[blakeh]

I have the DVD version signed by Bruce Campbell it was so awesome to meet him.

[srellison]

I love the casual background props: the Batwing, Penguin's umbrella, a Star Trek uniform, etc.

[Kevin-S]

It’s so fun how they’re handling it like it’s an actual ancient artifact

[Mozarth]

Adam moving his hands so close around the book and the propstore guy sweating cold. hahaha

[burnicus]

i'm loving how at 2:45 with the picture of the ash deadite, you can clearly read the second line saying BRUCE. XD

[MindiB]

Props like this are always such remarkable works of art. So much fun to see them in detail.

[adamscenna]

I love this! I grew up with these movies, but my favorite is still army of darkness. Awesome prop.

As soon as he asked Adam if "accuratize" was a real word, all I could think was "I reject your reality and substitute my own."

Great episode! Much love to Adam and the crew.

[Scudboy]

I have the replica DVD version of the Necronomicon edition of "Evil Dead 2" and the illustrations are complete and movie accurate. One of my favorite pieces of fandom.

It's too bad that as Adam is calling out something specific on the back cover the editing was just showing the interior pages... I would love to have seen what Adam was so excited about on the back cover.

[gretchenbockenfeld]

evil dead 2 is my favorite horror movie, really nice to see this, thank you.

[chrismontanaro]

Adam: "Wow, that is hands-down the most amazing thing I have ever laid eyes upon."
Editor: "Here's a nice slideshow of something else entirely."

[chrism]

1:50 oh god, what did you do? You didn't say the words before opening it!

[Lumibear.]

“Accuratise!? Is that a word? I don’t think that’s a word…”

Adam - “I reject your dictionary and substitute my own!”

[benwasserman]

Just don't read it Adam. Last thing we need is a viral Deadite-hosted YouTube channel.

[glenncurry]

Thanks a lot! You just made me order a copy of the Original Evil Dead Necronomicon Prop! One of the greatest movies ever! Right up there with A Clock Work Orange and Big Trouble in Little China!

[brentpearce]

I love your visits to the Propstore! Thank you.

My friends and I saw the video and then went and saw the movie. I believe it was the first show to come out on video and at the movies at the same time. Good job Adam you Rock. :)
