Keening

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

The character in the novel was portrayed as a keening figure, forever yearning for redemption and forgiveness.

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

The young child stood by the graveside, keening for his pet dog that had passed away.

The keening shriek of the fireworks lit up the night sky.
