ERRATA: contrary to what we say in the episode about "the magic user not wanting to go into Moria", in The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, Gandalf is the one who suggests going through the Mines of Moria. It is only in the film adaptation that he argues against it.

Gaslighting does not necessarily have to be abusive; it's just the process of trying to convince someone that what you both know to be true is not true. Gaslighting is also named after the play "Gas Light", also known as "Angel Street" - more info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_Light
