The band was formed in January 1994 by Comte d’Erlette (Bass/Vocals)
and Syuth n’ Guaraath (Guitars/Vocals, also member of The Last Battle)
under the name of Necromancya as a tribute to Howard Phillips Lovecraft's stories.
During the summer of 1994 they changed their name to Arkham and joined by Vincent (Drums) and Joachim (2nd Guitar).
In winter of 1995 Mathieu (Synths) and Marion (Female Vocals) recruited but Joachim left the band.

At the end of 1996, Lord Von Carthasis joined Arkham as a new drummer.
The year after, in March, they recorded the "Promo - Tape 1897" (later was used on their split with Nuit Noire)
