A convincing case. You know where you are with Sauron: he wants to enslave you and everyone else. But what does the Wight want from you? White robes, groping arms, hiding in your house, starting websites, it's all a bit much.

Maybe though under Middle Earth legislation, Wights have a statutory right of entry to your home? Like the gas board.. of course normal rules seem not to apply to Bombadil...
