I was just saying that when I read TTT I took Gollum's words as indicating some danger beyond simple drowning. He mentions the <I>special</I> danger of looking in when the candles are lit as opposed to when they aren't. So I may just be as superficial as PJ, but from the very start I've imagined the Dead as being dangerous in their own right. It does depend on the reader's viewpoint.
