I suppose that the Ringwraiths are quite similar to the Dementors in Harry Potter. But last time I checked, Ringwraiths were not soul-sucking fiends, as are Dementors. They are both, of course, servants of a higher dark power but I really don't think that Dementors were men at one time. And the chilling fear their presence inspires is similar, too.

OK, so I'm a Harry Potter maniac. So what! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Recently I've been trying to calm my anxiousness by reading fanfiction, but I want the next book really bad!
