I still do not understand what you want.

With this configuration

 error_page  404 /404.html;
 locaiton = /404.html {
     root /path/to/page;
 }

you will get 404 code with /404.html body for this request:
http://blabla1.com/non-existant.html

and 200 code with /404.html body for this request:
http://blabla1.com/404.html
