What happens to the souls of evil in Middle-earth?
In Tolkien’s legendarium, there’s no fiery Hell, only the Void: a place beyond time, light, and creation itself. This video explores the terrifying fate of Morgoth and Sauron after their defeat, the mystery of the Halls of Mandos, and what Tolkien truly meant by damnation.
From the exile of Morgoth through the Final Prophecy of Dagor Dagorath, discover Tolkien’s haunting vision of eternity, and why the Void may be the darkest part of Arda’s mythology.
