Engross oneself in or into something

Does the phrase "to engross oneself in or into something" make sense in English?

If so, would you please give me a few examples of how to use it?

Thank you.

In the US today, the verb "engross" is almost never heard. I'm a native English speaker in the US and I've never used it in speech or writing in my life.

Not with "into", and even with "in" it is about as rare as hens' teeth.

I recommend you treat it as a nightmare and try to put it out of your mind.
