Yes, he dies. He's the first (and last) character to be eaten in the narrative by Grendel. Grendel bursts into the hall and gobbles him up, before reaching for Beowulf, which turns out to be a big mistake. Hondscioh is not named in this initial encounter. He's anonymous until line 2076, where his name is revealed. His name means "Glove"
