How to unlock the Abracadabra achievement in Darksiders II - Definitive Guide
Death Tomb I: Located in the Nook. Fast travel to the Lost Temple and then travel away from the temple along the road.
Death Tomb II: Located in the Lair of the Deposed King. Fast Travel to the Lair of the Deposed King and travel all the way to the bottom floor where the tomb is located.
Death Tomb III: Located in Lostlight. It's halfway between the Tree of Life and the Crystal Spire, so Fast Travel to either one of those and take the road that connects them to find this tomb.
Death Tomb IV: Located in Shadow's Edge. Almost immediately upon leaving the Black Stone, you will see this Death Tomb.
Once you have successfully opened all tombs, the achievement will pop.
Remember that you have to SELL the chapters to Vulgrim to attain the keys, as collecting them is not enough.
Now the hard part, finding the pages.
Below are guides outlining the location of every page from the book of the dead, where those pages can be turned in and where the corresponding death tomb(s) are.
I take no credit for these excellent guides as were produced by the guys at GameFront

Every time you collect ten pages of the Book of the Dead, the pages will automatically combine into one chapter. When this happens you can visit Vulgrim and sell the chapter to him for a special reward: a key to a Death Tomb. There are a total of 40 pages in the Book of the Dead which means that there are 4 chapters, and 4 different Death Tombs. The tombs have chests in them that give out a lot of items in addition to one unique legendary item.
Each set of ten pages grants you a key that opens up a specific tomb, so you can't just use any key on whichever tomb you like. The first ten pages you turn in will give you a key to the first door in the game, and so on. The tombs are giant doors with a demon face on it, surrounded by four symbols that represent each of the Four Horseman.
The tomb's locations can be found below:
First Tomb (Forged Lands)- Between the Nook and the Lost Temple areas. Fast travel to the Lost Temple and walk forward until you see the tomb on your right.
- Legendary Item: Blade Master Talisman
Second Tomb (Kingdom of the Dead)- Enter the Lair of the Deposed king and go to the bottom of the winding staircase. It is a very long staircase so don't stop before you hit the bottom.
- Legendary Item: Demonheart Talisman
Third Tomb (Lostlight)- In the realm of Lostlight if you look on the left side of the map you will see a circular area. This is where the tomb is.
- Legendary Item: Hoardseeker Talisman
Fourth Tomb (Shadow's Edge)- It is on the right hand side right after you pass Ostegoth on the way to the Black Stone.
- Legendary Item: Spear of Storms
