Hi all. I never crafted anything before. And I want to make ancient style notebook with a cover similar to "necronomicon" to keep my RPG notes in. Also want to make a feather pen. I searched a little and there is no suitable notebook in my country and worldwide sites cost it too expensive. Can anyone suggest me any easy and practical method and kinda cheap materials for this?

Go to google.com and search for 'diy bookbinding'. You are welcome.

Human flesh is free if you procur it yourself. It's prohibitively expensive otherwise.
i've done this before, kinda. soak the pieces of paper in coffee. it'll make the pages look and feel crusty.
My local Barnes and Nobel had leather bound "travel" note books and calligraphy quills, some of the notebooks are undyed and you could probably necro them out by burning designs with a solder gun and dying red

Book binding is actually fairly simple (unless you try to do it with leather, then it gets complicated). /r/bookbinding on reddit is a decent resource, you might want to inquire there.
No idea about a pen though, maybe you could get an old fountain or dip pen instead?
