So after staying at Tom's house for quite a while, they decide to head on and leave the safety of his home and they start to head into the Barrow-Downs. It is like a giant graveyard where a battle was held but most of all of them dies so they buried them in mass graves. Most people avoid the Barrow-Downs for they think that it is haunted. While Frodo and the three other hobbits with him start to make their way through the Barrow-Downs, after a while all four of them fall down a hole into one of the mass graves I mentioned earlier. And while in the hole one of the ghosts of a former warrior that fought in the Barrow-Downs comes to life and tries to kill Frodo but Tom came into the hole right when Frodo was losing consciousness and stops the ghost. Tom then escorts them through the rest of the Barrow-Downs without any harm.
The summary I mentioned above was not in the movie. Which it could've been in the movie but got cut as a deleted scene, because there was a lot of those, but it was not in the original movie so it was seeing something new that I would not expect. One quote in the book is, "Suddenly, resolve hardened in him, and he seized a short sword that lay beside him, and kneeling he stooped low over the bodies of his companions. With what strength he had he hewed at the crawling arm near the wrist, and the hand broke off; but at the same moment the sword splintered up to the hilt. There was a shriek and the light vanished. In the dark there was a snarl." The tone of this quote was gloominess, and fear. The situation of having no light and then there being a snarl in the darkness makes it gloomy, with fear put into it.
