The Book of the Dead – The Mummy Prop Replica

“It’s just a book. No harm ever came from reading a book.” — Evie Carnahan, The Mummy (1999)

Known as the Book of the Dead, this codex style book contains great power… Spells to summon mighty warriors, incantations to raise the dead, and curses to doom men for an eternity. To even speak of it was considered blasphemy. As a replica of the Book of the Dead of King Ramusan and Imhotep from The Mummy, this book might very well be your undoing, or unleash unspeakable horrors across the land.

Featuring a cover of wood, metal, and cast-resin pieces, the clasps hinge closed and are held in place with magnets to contain the unfathomable power within. Bound in supple black genuine leather, the Book of the Dead is sure to be a substantial prize for any Egyptologist or collector.

Available in a variety of options, we can customize the book to fit your specific need. Each finished book weighs approximately 2.8 lbs, giving great substance and heft to your book of unspeakable power, and measures approximately 8.5 x 11″. The Book of the Dead can be made as a:

• Blank paged sketchbook to scribble your own notes and drawings in
• Hollow compartment to keep things inside
• An actual bound copy of the text of the Book of the Dead. (ISBN 978-9176374641)

So, brave O’Connell type, you won’t need to track down and enter the tomb of Imhotep to find these books (though you might find the map to Hamunaptra we’ve got quite handy)… our librarians are standing by to craft your ancient Egyptian relic. Also available for those looking to round out their sets,

• The Book of the Living

And don’t forget your key!

(Please allow up to 3-6 weeks for our archaeologists to craft and send your book on its way. Our books are delicate artifacts, and take time and care to create.)
