Director Sam Raimi has successfully envisionedDoctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madnesswhich is the very reason that it has become the first MCU film to send characters from the universe into the multiverse as the multiverse concept was implemented inSpider-Man: No Way Home,which was the first MCU film to bring characters from the multiverse into our universe.
Link Between Doctor Strange 2 and Evil Dead
By the end of theoriginal Disney+ seriesWandaVision, MCU fans became well aware of the evil book known as the Darkhold that contains powerfully dangerous, dark magic, and it has a corrupting force on those who read it.
InDoctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness, this evil book, the Darkhold has a significant role in the plot. What you might not be aware of is that Doctor Strange 2 is connected to another major franchise from director Sam Raimi.
According to the filmmaker, there is a direct relationship between the Darkhold and the Necronomicon – the evil book that is the epicentre of everything bad in theEvil Deadmovies.
In an interview with Cinemablend, the director was asked if he sees a link between the Darkhold in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the Necronomicon fromEvil Dead,to which he gave a positive answer.
“Yes, I do. There are always those evil books in these stories. And that’s just another bad one of those books,”Raimi responded.
In all the Evil Dead movies, The Necronomicon or The Book of the Dead is an ancient spellbook that is written in human blood and bounded in human flesh.
In theEvil Deadfrom 1981, a group of college students come across The Necronomicon while spending a vacation in the woods, and after reading from it, they get trapped in malicious energy that begins to possess and destroy them.
The Necronomicon has been featured in all of theEvil Deadmovies – includingThe Evil Dead,Evil Dead II,Army of Darkness, andEvil Dead– and has also been featured in the television seriesAsh vs.Evil Deadstarring Bruce Campbell.
How Multiverse is connected?
Hence, The Necronomicon has a fascinating link to the Darkhold which isthe multiverse. The Multiverse contains an infinite number of realities which means there is an infinite number of books that are purely evil. In the MCU, that book is named the Darkhold while in theEvil Deaduniverse, it is called The Necronomicon.
Hence,Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madnesswill be a rollercoaster ride to different universes and what lies in the future is still unknown.
