Scariest thing in Middle Earth... - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I just can't believe that not everyone found the Nazgul most frightening! For me, nothing compares them. When I was reading about them (at night...), I was so scared, I almost couldn't look out of my window. I was sure I would see a black shape in the shadows!
And same thing when I came from the movies - I kept watching over my shoulder and thought I heard their (or their horse's?) voices...
I guess it's the fact that they are nor living nor dead that makes them so scary. To be dragged to their "nothingness" would definitely be worse than death!
I think Shelob and the Orcs were only gross, not really scary... (even if I am really arachnofobic!)
And the ring of course. Not really scary, but so evil...(By the way, when I made a test "Which of the bad guys are you?" I was...THE RING! Wonder what that means... [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img])
