I'd just lift the stats & rules from LOTR skirmish game. It is afterall what LotHS is based upon.
You may have to play about with warriors of the dead a bit to get a feel for undead to work the way you want them to.
Theres also an idea for ghostly pirates in the 'experimental crews' document in the LOTHS yahoo groups file

I would second Scott's thought, just use the states from the LotR SBG game.

It is true, LotHS has a lot in common with LotR, seeing how I enjoy LotR you see a lot of the same rules for it in LotHS. In fact I get asked all the time how to use horses or mounts in LotHS and I tell folks to use the rules from LotR for it.
