Crazy that they removed the screaming from subsequent editions of the Necronomicon. Nowadays it's gone through so many revisions new copies don't even bleed. Sometimes the modern special editions will whimper a bit, but that's all you get.

Finding a untainted (no gooning!) virgin is near impossible, so getting the books to even give off an evil aura is next to impossible.

Also, since the 3rd Cosmic Revelation, there's no requirement to sign a pact with Cthulhu to print a copy, so quality control has dropped significantly.
