In this video we deep-dive into Tolkien’s expertly crafted lore to unlock the secrets of Middle Earth. I ensure I spend hours scouring the pages of The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, The Silmarillion and more in order to find the kind of lore even Gandalf might find interesting!
The intriguing chapter in the Two Towers book by JRR Tolkien, The Passage of the Marshes, has become one of many iconic scenes from the Lord of the Rings films by Peter Jackson. Both of which may well have left viewers and readers with many questions regarding the origins of these ghastly apparitions.
In this video we discuss my theory regarding the faces in the dead marshes. Who are they? How did they get there? Why are they there? Are they ghosts or trapped spirits? All of these questions are answered in this video.
Be sure to join the discussion in the comments as I always enjoy hearing your opinions and theories.
