History
Buffy Summers used this book in 1998 in her research at the library on Angel's return from Acathla's dimension, having selected as well the book Exploring Demon Dimensions.[1]
The Mystery of Acathla was among other books on the library's table while the Scooby Gang researched the source for Buffy's weakness, during her Tento di Cruciamentum.[2]
The book was then used by Rupert Giles during a research concerning the Box of Gavrok, identifying the recipe for the Breath of the Atropyx ritual. He lent the book to Alexander Harris so he could get the necessary ingredients.[3]
In 2000, the Scoobies researched Giles's personal collection in his apartment to find out about Fyarl demons. Anya read from the Mystery of Acathla, but the information was found in another book.[4]
Months later, the book was present in Giles' mystical dream, in which the dreamed Willow Rosenberg used it in a research on what could be attacking the Scooby Gang in their sleep.[5]
