Keening

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

The abandoned graveyard was filled with the keening of the wind passing through the tombstones.

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

The character in the horror movie let out a keening scream that sent chills down the audience's spine.

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