The Green Book is a Twiztid album, which is 1:05:29 in length and was created in 2003. It has been described as their most personal album. It was released on July 1, 2003 on Psychopathic Records.

The eponymous book is said to actually be called "Ikitome Nekanavious" which acts as "a gateway to the distant realms of the mind" and was written by "the dark ones". Whether the authors of the book are related to the Dark Carnival of Insane Clown Posse's extended religious allegory the Joker's Cards is never stated. In the CD's intro, Jamie Madrox uses quotes from the film Evil Dead to describe the Green Book, hinting that may actually be the Necronomicon, or book of the dead featured in lovecraftian lore and othere media. Twiztid claim that the book was destroyed in 1970, before adding "Or was it?"
