Balrogs (/ˈbælrɒɡz/; singular: Balrog) are fictional creatures in J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth legendarium. They first appeared in print in his high fantasy novel The Lord of the Rings, where the Fellowship of the Ring encounter one known as Durin's Bane in the Mines of Moria. Balrogs appear also in Tolkien's The Silmarillion and other posthumously published books.

Balrogs are tall and menacing beings who can shroud themselves in fire, darkness, and shadow. They frequently appeared armed with fiery whips "of many thongs and occasionally used long swords. In Tolkien's later conception, they could not be readily vanquished—a certain stature was required by the would-be hero. Only dragons rivalled their capacity for ferocity and destruction and during the First Age of Middle-earth, they were among the most feared of Morgoth's forces
