According to a Wise Man (Ian Abercrombie), the only way Ash can get back to his own world is through magical Necronomicon Ex Mortis. From there, the search for Necronomicons starts.
He enters a haunted forest where an unseen force throws Ash into the windmill.
Later, he arrives at Necronomicons location where he finds three books in place of one, but he manages to identify the correct one.
