Legolas' arrow goes straight through the King of the Dead.
The King's sword is presumably just as ghostly as the King. Yet his sword makes real contact with Aragorn's sword. What's going on here? (I am expecting a religious/spiritual backlash.)

Another interesting thing is that when the ghosts walk over an orc it dies but when they rummage through the Three Hunters, they are not harmed.

I thought the whole sword thing happened because of the history of Anduril having been part of the oath that the dead made.

I think that it might have something to do with the fact that Aragorn is weilding the sword, they are bound by the oath. Or maybe the sword isn't ghostly? When men rot weapons still stay intact.

Mmmmm, I smell a plot hole. O those crazy dead.
I always thought the fact their swords clang had to do with Anduril and Aragorn being the rightful king. But the fact that the hunters are not killed when the ghosts pass over them is strange.

Is it wrong that I just put it all down to mystical ghost powers? Of which I know nothing because I am not, infact, a ghost?
