Keening

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

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

The haunting melody of the keening bagpipes played at the memorial service brought a sense of solemnity to the occasion.

The chilling keening of the banshee sent shivers down the spines of those who heard it.

The keening voices of the choir brought tears to the audience's eyes.
