(I'm new here, and have just started reading the Tolkien books, and I was wondering if you could help me with a question I have.)

Why do the men of Rohan fear her so and believe that she is such a, well, evil person? They don't know that she has one of the three elven rings, yet they know that she is powerful and fear her. But none of them have ever laid eyes on her. Could someone please explain this to me? I'd appreciate the input.
