Internet User Orders College Textbooks and Gets a Necronomicon Instead

Ordering online can sometimes lead to unexpected results. Such was the case when Imgur user Cinemageddon placed an order for some college textbooks and got a different kind of educational tool instead: a replica of the Necronomicon from Sam Raimi’s Evil Dead films. Luckily, Cinemageddon has a bit of a sense of humor about the whole situation, cracking jokes in the comments.

One user wrote, “Do you have a chainsaw you can spare? If yes, then you’re good to go”, to which they replied, “I have some hedge clippers. ¯_(ツ)_/¯”. Further into the conversation, when asked if they had a hand to spare, they quipped, “I happen to have 2 of them, yes.” They also joked about the way Bruce Campbell said the three words in Army of Darkness, writing, “Look, maybe I didn’t say every tiny syllable, no. But basically I said them, yeah.”

I’m not sure if Amazon has a special return policy on unholy relics that have a tendency to awaken murderous spirits but it can’t hurt to ask, right?
