The mysterious and haunting beings in Tolkien's Middle-Earth that are too terrifying to be included in Peter Jackson's films.
We don't shy away from them here as we discuss the story of the hobbits creepy encounter with them! 💀 Where did the spirits originally come from? Why are they protecting the burial grounds? Why didn't they take the Ring and where does their allegiance lie?
We answer all of these questions and even discuss some possible names of the Barrow-Wights that we know about! The scariest part about this episode as always is the stupid jokes and puns heard throughout, enjoy! 😁
