It's a traditional English/Celtic/folk/etc belief that elves and other members of the faerie crew are vulnerable to cold iron, the sound of church bells, and similar things. I think it is extremely strange to carry this over into a world filled with Tolkien style elves, but I suppose they felt they needed a vulnerability.
