  Fell beast - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, the term fell beast is used to describe the gigantic flying pterosaur-like creatures on which the Nazgûl rode on after being unhorsed at the Ford of Bruinen.
In Peter Jackson's trilogy of movies based on The Lord of the Rings, the fell beasts are depicted as being pterosaur-like creatures, and their features are in most cases similar to that of actual species of pterosaur with two major differences.
The fell beast is the creature that the nine Nazgûl ride, and the mistake probably arose because fell beasts are always seen with a Nazgûl atop them.

 Michael Crawford's Review of the Week
There are basically three sculpted elements to the statue; the Fell Beast, the Witch-king, and the rock they're perched on.
The Fell Beast is a difficult creature to translate into a statue, but they've done an admirable job in capturing the character.
The serpentine nature of the creature is beautifully presented as it coils around the rock, and while some may regret the choice to have the wings folded up, it would have made the piece even more expensive to have the wings outspread.
