Witness the first murder in Valinor! In this video we'll talk about the most terrifying character in Tolkien's creation. The demonic spider Ungoliant. Alongside the Dark Lord Melkor, she intends to darken Valinor and change the world. **Also stick around to the end for another Tolkien Fun Fact!**

Much love and many thanks to the artists who make the wonderful art. No Tolkien art is created by myself, and all credit goes to the individual artists.
