Druggavar (Dunlendish for Evil-goat) are beings of Ancient Evil in goat form, or perhaps living goats corrupted by an evil spirit. They are found in Dunland and Enedwaith. They are also found in the Plateau of Gorgoroth and the Morgul Vale, where they are called Dire-horns.
The Druggavar, derived from the Gwyllion of Welsh myth, are perhaps one of the strangest monsters to arrive in Middle-earth. Taking the physical form of demonic goats, these fell spirits haunt the herds of the Uch-lûth at night, bringing terror to the superstitious Men of Enedwaith. Like the Cuthraul, the Druggavar are Ancient Evil masters of terror, complete with new and terrifying (for goats) art and skills.
