Not to mention the Silmarillion says that she fled into the "forgotten South." The South Lands are most notably this location. So I can see why people suggest the worship of her.

But she would have eaten her worshippers--unless a tribal sacrificial system was put in place to appease her.

Personally though, I believe she did reside here, because that is why it is called the "Dark Lands," but like Ar-Pharazon and his numenorians, I believe when the world changed and shifted, she became trapped underground (think like the King's Men) by Eru's power. I don't think a Spirit can "starve" to death or she would eat herself.
