I am still thinking it refers to the horcruxes. These objects are sacred to Tom Riddle and deathly to other wizards except Harry Potter.
For me, this is the only thing that makes sense. We know that the book will be about Harry trying to find and destroy the other pieces of LV's soul. This is my opinion.

It's an obvious title, and one that doesn't tell us much. "Hallows" is an Arthurian word, meaning holy or blessed things, like the Grail. In the Arthurian myth, "hallows" can be a chalice or cup, a lance or spear, a platter or sacred stone, and a sword. So, it's a reference to the horcruxes. More about the word "hallows" here:

Hallows = Holy things (or valleys)

Deathly = Deadly

"Deathly Hallows" = The stuff in the Ark of the Covenant.

Which makes Harry = Indiana Jones. (Or Bill Weasley.)
