does hell also have a bible?
After watching Constantine, I was just curious if they really do have a bible in hell. It stated in the movie that "Hell's Bible" was a different version of Revelations, and in the cover of their Bible, it had the picture of Jesus on the cross, but the cross is flipped upside down. Any info on this?

Not that I' m aware of.There' s the fictional work Necronomicon, invented by H.P. Lovecraft. There are accounts of some people actually believing the Necronomicon to be a real book, which it is not.
Actually, the Necronomicon was not invented by H.P.Lovecraft, he just wrote about it. The Necronomicon actually does exist, and it is called "The Book of the Dead", but I am unsure if it's Hell's Bible!
Lovecraft himself insisted the book was pure invention.
This issue was confused in the late 1970' s by the publication of a book purporting to be a translation of the "real" Necronomicon. This book, by the pseudonymic "Simon", published by Schlangekraft ("snake power", an Illuminatus reference) and then in Avon paperback, attempted to connect the fictional Lovecraft mythology to Sumerian mythology. The Necronomicon' s connection to historical Sumerian mythology is entirely a product of Simon' s imagination. Nor do the "biographical facts" of Lovecraft' s life as presented there have any basis in historical reality.
The Book of the Dead is the common name for the ancient Egyptian funerary text 'The Book of Coming [or Going] Forth By Day'. The name was invented by the German Egyptologist Karl Richard Lepsius, who published a selection of the texts in 1842.

It was just a movie. Pure fiction if there is a hell they might have a their own version of what happen when God kick the Lucifer out of heaven.
The book is mentioned in various places in fiction but always as being very rare. There are supposedly secret or hidden copies in the British Museum, the Bibliotheque Nationale de France, Widener Library of Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts, the University of Buenos Aires and the library of the fictional Miskatonic University in the equally fictional Arkham, Massachusetts. The book is dangerous to read, being almost inevitably destructive of one' s health and sanity and is kept under lock and key in these libraries.

The Book of the Dead is from Egypt, and has nothing to do with death. It's a book of life and incantations. When the dead depart the world of the living, these incantations are spoken outloud to allow the dead individual to have all they possessed in life but in death. This is why Egyptian Priests touch the mouth of the deceased with a rod, so the incantations can be spoken in the spirit world. It has nothing to do "Hell's Bible", which is bogus!

In the hell, how could that be? It is impossible, on earth: yes there is and it is surely not from LaVey. The Seven Chapters of Sebitti or Al Azif could reveal something about hell, if it will not drive you insane. And if you can manage to read, understand and remember then maybe you will know.
And secondly, just to forever remove the veil of Lovecraft, because I'm really getting tired of this Necronomicon bullshit: it was an invention of Lovecraft and is based on what I just said above.
It is ****ing fake, just understand and remember, for Lovecraft poisoned the true nature of the Great Gods, the beloved Gods from a long time ago...
The Temple of Set in ancient Egypt was considered by many the foundation for satanic worship, Luciferian, Children of the Black Rose...To follow Set was considered Black Majick and was mostly practiced in secret. As far as any bible I'm really not sure on. But I'm sure their must have been. I think the summerians clueless about any book of the dead. Lovecraft went through alot of crap to make people belived his trash. I think The Knights of the Templar had a stern satanic foundation. I personally think their is no one way into the powers of hell. I think Hell has many doors that lead to the same room.Then again maybe I'm just full of shit

Inleast you are talkilng about a wiccian bible I doubt it very much.JM 🙂
I dated a Wiccan once. Besides all the sage burning, and tarot card readings(some were hauntingly accurate) she was a great lover. Talk about taking your time to savor the moment. She wasn't won of those club slugs that just lays there and lets you do all the work. It was like an oddessey, the candles, the Enya, the grinding. I'm far from Wiccan let me assure you. It's like comparing pink lemonade to gasoline. She said it was because she always fell for someone with the Hanged Man card. I guess that's Wiccan for The Bullsh*t Artist. I haven't seen her in over a decade. I could have predicted that one. This was brought to you by Pepsi. Drink up!pepsi
