The Soul may die, or atleast lose its memory, but it seems that Hollow bodies could truly die only while the first flame is lit.

Food for thought though, (also kinda off topic speculation) question is did the first flame burn on souls alone? And does it just  recycle or consume souls completely? I'm all for the recycling theory. Hollows found souls of Lords within the flame, as well as the Dark Soul, and took them. Once humanity spread around, population grew (cuz you find baby skellies). Then for one reason or another, Hollows could truly die as humans, but that could suggest that they weren't linked to the flame anymore, and that their soul and Humanity didn't get sent back to the flame, which is why it faded.

Who truly knows though? The Cursed undead could very well possess either same hollow body or soul as the one that belonged to the Chosen undead, though probly not.
