Keening

As the fog rolled in, a keening foghorn warned ships of the treacherous rocks ahead.

The ancient ritual involved participants keening together to honor their ancestors.

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

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

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