When was Gandalf in Moria? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I would alert you to the fact that Aragorn did indeed also pass through Moria before their eventful and tragic passage.

"`I too once passed the Dimrill Gate,' said Aragorn quietly; 'but though I also came out again, the memory is very evil. I do not wish to enter Moria a second time.'" - Book II Chapter 4, A Journey in the Dark

He does not elaborate on what he experienced, but it is obviously sufficient enough to dissuage him from the want to enter again. Consequently he knew of something rather evil.
