Hungry Houseless--now, wouldn't that be an awesome personal title?
It has never struck me that Tolkien is talking about the Unhoused fëar
actually raiding graves to find a home in the passage William Cloud Hicklin quotes.
Rather Tolkien is referring to the dangers of communicating with these exiles and even of sharing one's hröa. It's more a "Beware of squatters" rather than a fear of the dead rising.
