Keening

The keening stench of decay emanated from the garbage dumpster, making it difficult to pass by.

The old haunted house echoed with the keening cries of unseen spirits.

As the casket was lowered into the ground, the mourners erupted in heart-wrenching keening, expressing their sorrow.

As the funeral procession passed by, the sound of keening echoed through the streets.

The keening tone of his voice conveyed the depth of his heartbreak.
