    does anyone know what the name of the drug johnny depp was doing out of the brown dropper bottle in the hotel room where his attorney looked like a monster and there was pink smoke everywhere? looks like some scary shit.

    adrenocrome. I'm 99% sure thats what it was. But i dont have a clue what it does or where you can get it nor have i ever even heard of it being sold around me.

    Yeah... Andrenablahblahblah..... although it's often believed to have those effects... that's actually a myth. It doesn't do anything, and it's very, very unlikely you'd ever get your hands on some to prove differently. LoL

    Edit: Although, I FUCKING LOVE HUNTER S. THOMPSON!

    According to wiki it is a real drug- Hunter just exaggerated a lot about it

    Seems pretty sketch. Even erowid doesn't know too much about it.

    This book was awesome and so were all of his other ones. I especially love the bats and I can't drive through Barstow without looking out for them. But I want to share with you all what I'm reading now - The Deportation Handbook by Claiborne Tchoupitoulas (pen name obviously). Anyway, it's raw and funny, reminds me of Hunter. My friend recommended it to me, said it was
    Hunter-esque, not as much drug usage but lots of Hunter-style ridiculousness.

    yeah, im pretty sure in the book he sadi it wasnt a real drug... it is a real thing, but he just exaggerated that shit.

    its a real drug but the drug in the book/film and its effects were made up, i dont think hunter was aware that a drug with the same name existed.

    i'm loling that the thread was about Adrenocrome and someone bumped it 4 years later to talk about the book as their first and only post
