Keening

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

The mourners joined in a collective keening, their voices blending in a sorrowful chorus that echoed through the valley.

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.
