An H.P. Lovecraft-inspired cookbook with recipes to whet your appetite and threaten your sanity.

75 drinks, potions, concoctions and offerings for your next haunted housewarming or Samhain soiree.

Whether you're home for the holly-daze or wandering a hellish landscape of never-ending agony, you need a good tune to pass the time. The dire duo behind the best-selling The Necronomnomnom accordingly present a gruesome grimoire of 25 creepy carols and sinister songs. From "Do You Fear What I Fear?" to "It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Mythos" and "Shoggoth the Formless Horror" to "Silent Knife", "Sunken Hells" and "The Twelve Days of Darkness", these puntastic parodies pay hellacious homage to the Lovecraftian cosmos. Shriek them bleakly into the vast abyss or brandish them at seasonal gatherings to revile your fellow revellers. This disquieting collection of chants and canticles features extraordinary illustrations and desperate strains from the throats and hands of those who have gone before. Its harmful harmonies and ruinous rhythms will engulf your mind for all the days of darkness to come. Make merry while you can.

Returning to the slime-covered ruins of the city of R'lyeh and the tentacled deity who slumbers there would make anyone hungry. The terrifying trio behind the best-selling Necronomnomnom have summoned forth another gruesome grimoire: a throng of more than 50 nightmarish nibbles. Organised by taste (bitter, salty, savoury, sour, sweet), these ominous noshes will satisfy all your depraved cravings, from the A-tacolypse, Carni-S'mores and Hot Cthocolate to Maca-Runes, Necronomicorn and There Cannoli Be One. Mercilessly tested, these puntastic dishes pay horrifying homage to the Lovecraftian cosmos. Like The Necronomicon-the legendary, forbidden book of the dead that's "alien to all sane and balanced readers"-this tome contains many delicious, malicious secrets within its pages. Appeasing your appetite while shattering your sanity, it comes riddled with mesmerising illustrations and desperate warnings from those who have gone before. It will bring frightful delight for all the days of darkness to come.
