Keening

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

The widow sat alone in her empty house, keening softly for the husband she had lost.

As the funeral procession passed by, the mourners let out keening wails of grief, filling the air with a somber atmosphere.

The old television emitted a high-pitched keening noise whenever it was turned on.

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

The sound of keening could be heard from afar, drawing people to the funeral grounds to pay their respects.
