addEventDelete();

This is possible if there are some elements in localStorage but no "words" element.
In any case, for a non-existent item, localStorage.getItem will return null, and JSON.parse(null) === null. So it's better to write something like this:

words = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('words')) || [];
