The printing on the cover was originally meant to be in gold instead of yellow. However, because the gold color was too expensive the printing company was asked to use a standard color as close to gold as possible.

Exact counterfeit copies have been released over the years as this is an often coveted version.

The original title for this album was Pentagrammaton, but this title was discarded when several people read it as "Pentagon".

The cover image is a retouched portion of a drawing made by Jos A. Smith in 1981 for the book Witches by Erica Jong.

Regarding the spelling of Track 3: Sheets of Old English rub-on letters had already been purchased for rubbing the logo and the song titles. At some point during rubbing the song titles the night before turning the lay-out in for printing, it was discovered that they were one letter "c" short. Thinking nobody would ever notice anyway, and figuring a "s" sound though spelled with a "c" could easily be written with a "s" just as well, an "s" was duly used instead of a "c". Thus the title "Necromancy" became "Necromansy".
