Howling Wind 

There is an old Nordic tale my Great Grandma used to tell me when I was a child. She would always tell my that The Wind or the Howling Wind was the desperate cry for help from the Lost. Cursed to cry across the lands Howling in desperation for help. For they were so cold, so tired of the never ending cycle. For if they too, should suffer then you also will suffer the freezing winds for the rest of time. She would always finish the tale by saying the Goosebumps you get when you are in a windstorm was the presence of another.. She was a Scary old Woman, let me tell you.

Makes me feel cozy. Glad I have a warm bed, a roof over my head and my two kittens to snuggle with...

As a kid I used to be terrified of the cold howling wind sounds, we lived in an old wood and brick house ontop of a mountain and the wind would be tremendous up there. My room was in the northwest corner on the 3rd floor and would always catch the brute of the wind. Outside my window was 11 tall pines, roughly 70-110 feet in height and when that wind got to blowing it was something viscous, and since the wind blew right through the trees and onto my window it was very loud. I could never sleep as a kid because hearing that sound inside the total darkness of night would scare me senseless. I moved to Florida and now I miss it all entirely. I took it for granted and never truly appreciated the cold windy nights for what little they had to offer. Now I lay awake at night listening to these sounds to help me fall asleep, in hopes I'll be able to once again live back towards home and be able to really embrace all that I missed because of my childish fears. I find it ironic too that now for me to fall asleep, I find my self listening to the very thing that made me lose countless hours of sleep as a child.

I live the howling wind, everyone seems to think it's scary, but I like it.

Love this sound. It’s creepy and scary but also strangely comforting.

My dad once told me when he used to work graveyard shift at night in Jerez, Zacatecas (Mexico) he used to travel through canyons during storms to get to work and he understood it was just the wind but he said there was something so ominous about the sound the wind made, he doesn’t believe in the undead but he said that some(thing) helps the wind make that noise. That scares me thinking about it

Such a haunting mysterious sound.. Chills...

One of the nicest sound effect youtube files i have ever heard.

This reminds me of my childhood. Used to live next to the city of Saint-Peterburg, Russia. There are snowy and windy winters, I often lie in my warm bed listening to the blizzard singing outside. Felt really grateful for the warmth of the apartment that gave us shelter. Good old days.

As a child I always liked the sound of the wind and rain on the window. I used to sit by the window and look at the mysty mountains and trees. And I always wanted to know what is behind those mountains and the rain. When I became 18 years old I went to travel far from where I grew up. I'm 67 years old now and still traveling. Never stopped traveling. There is nothing more exciting than getting off an airplane into a new culture. Again and again. Keeps me alive, young, and happy

I'm a children's nurse and I played this whilst giving nursing care to a sick newborn today and it instantly calmed them:)

I picture myself in the wilderness, in a shelter I made, wrapped in wool and safe from the elements.

A much more relaxing and comfortable form of ASMR.

Listening to this while reading The Shining, imagining myself in the Overlook Hotel, slowly losing my sanity...

I just love listening to this, while I’m snuggled in for the night under piles of covers all safe, warm, & cozy. My kitty seems to like it, too. She’s already sound asleep…

A lonely, desolate, haunting sound. LOVE IT!

I love this the howling wind is the most calming thing. It's hard to find a good one, I'm glad I found this one!

I really love this sound! Whenever I can, I like to leave a window open just enough so even a gentle breeze will make a sound like this.

Reminds me of when I was young, living way up north. Log cabin, crackling fire in the fireplace, warm and comfy, nothing electronic, whilst it was -50°f outside, kind of icy wind that would take your breath away, if you breathed to hard and if you were stupid enough to go outside without a scarf about your face. Thank you for this post, brought back some wonderful memories, of relatives long gone.

Geralt of Rivia: Wind's howling...

Helps me meditate no matter where. I see my self in a frozen forest sitting on the ice cold snow, wind blowing my nose while wolves are howling around, while the raven stares at me from a distance.

the frequency that wind gives off is actually considered good for you. good for the brain. it could be a possibility why we love the sound of wind so much

I'm laying out front of my house by the Lehigh river watching meteors, listening to river an this bad ass wind! Thanks!

Best howling wind on here,reminds me of the cold winters in England in the 60s as a child,snuggled up in my mums bed,and it snowing hard and the wind howling,and my bro going out to try and do his paper round early in the morning .

Creepy as hell. Love it.

Whoever listening to this, may your heart healed from stress and fulfill it with peace. 😍🥰😍💖💖💖

I can't imagine hours of this in a hurricane... GIVES ME THE CHILLS

This is the same one that I have been listening to for at least the last six years. I've tried other ones but NOTHING else can relax me like this one can, please never take this off of you tube 💤💤💤💤💤

Winter is coming.

ive heard them all and NOTHING beats this, NOTHING.

Wind’s howling- geralt

I didn’t know such sounds could be so peaceful

Great howling wind sounds, it really adds a lot of ambiance to reading a spooky story!

I love the icy Cold Weather, Howling wind's, Like when i was a Child in the 1960's, especially near Christmas, i love listening at the howling winds out side my bedroom window, in the winter in those days, the windows would ice up, and the snow would be nearly 2 feet deep, kids of today has never seen a snowy winter like i have,

I LOVE THE COLD AND THE ICE ITS JUST GIVES ME A CHILL

Memories of my childhood...beautiful

This is my favourite one out of all of the ones I’ve listened to. I wish it was longer. I’ve heard wind like this many times, especially as a child living in cold North East England.

Этот трек в избранном уже 3 года... В знойной Ялте часто надеваю наушники, закрываю глаза и слушаю... Лучше всякого кондиционера... Спасибо за настроение!

I recently moved and this is exactly the noise I would hear in my old bedroom because the windows desperately needed replaced. I didn't realize that my new place wouldn't do that too and while I'm glad for better windows, I am even more glad that I found this to replace what I used to hear at night.

Reminds me of my old house back home,lots of high winds blowing through the rafters almost nightly, I lived near the Atlantic ocean on the east coast of Canada, beautiful.

As it got quiet at the end, I checked that how long the video was since I didn't remember, then I realized that I listened this for an HOUR!

My husband snores like a pig! So I put on my earphones and listen to this. Works every night :)

Who listen still in 2024 this one is my all time favourite, sending love ❤

Scary in a cool haunting way. I love the wind!

The sound of the wind is very beautiful I love it in the winter and with it rain

Been listening for over a year, every night. Thank you!

my hometown is near to the beach. I still remember the howling wind in the morning (around 6-8am)..very calm and peaceful and its much different than hear it in the night

The perfect soundtrack to read Reek/Theon's and Asha's in A Dance with Dragons. The tension and intrigue between the Bolton's, Frey's and the rest of the North as the dreaded winter comes to the North, and the grueling march of Stannis' men on Winterfell. And this storm is strongly implied to be the beginning of the Long Night.

This is exactly the way it sounded during the Blizzard of 1978 outside my apartment window here in Indiana.

In growing up I was fortunate enough to spend a few years in Minnesota. I remember and love this sound. It was especially appealing at bedtime. Thank you for recording this.

Brings back memories from when I was 12 and went to the snow with my family

Meteorology Major here love it!!!! Just love hearing and watching a winter blizzard and all of those pressure differences making it's own orchrestra!!!

Playing for a year now every night. 💜💖

This video should be renamed "Winds That Talk" They have been man's witness since the beginning of time. Listen and learn for they are wise. ^^

This resonates with me well. It gives me a humbling feeling and like to be cosy while im listening. Thanks for the upload.

I love listening to the wind howl it's like the music and the voice of nature and the world it's almost haunting but it's also captivating and interesting, I like walking in the winds at night and watching the clouds blow past the moon and the light disappear and reaper from behind them and create shadows in the darkness, i like listening to the trees move almost like an orchestra that stretches for miles with a sound so massive but not loud that you can almost see how small you are in comparison, I also like the feeling of the cold night air which sinks into the landscape and holds everything dormant and asleep until the next light can awaken what was always there but hiding from what covered everything watching and hearing all the things which inhabit the darkness and the cold is also interesting seeing how they move and look around and observe everything there impressive and fascinating, the night as whole can make you feel very uneasy the way it strips you of sight and how it changes everything completely to what it is at day but once you see past that you are able to see a new side of the earth that is so different from the one we know it's beautiful and i love it

This is fantastic, I can't get enough of this sort of thing.

Reminds me when I was a child in Montana in the early 60s our house was drafty and I would cuddle up with my older bro in his bed. We would often talk about the wind until we fell asleep. We didn’t dare move because the bed was so cold next to us. The wind always blowing there, I do not miss it.

The sound of desolation...and I am loving it! Thanks for the upload.

haunting and beautiful

This used to scare the living crap out of me when i was a kid. But now......i find it absolutely soothing!

Such an erie setting, love to visit this place

Still listening 2019.

it sounds like choir voices, and they are singing a very pure but tormented and haunting improvisation. I can hear 3-4 parts sometimes

Beautiful for deep sleep. I grew up with this.from south coast of nl. Always very windy. Especially the fall and winter. 💖

i love it thanks !! and yeah it is great with headphones I used to sleep in winter by the window of my house and when the wind come it made these Howling sounds oh how beautiful they are!! once again thank you Andreea

This is, by far, the best wind video. I have listened to others but always come back to this one. Childhood memories of the wind blowing outside my bedroom window. Thanks.👏👏

Great sound...... Winter storm winds. I hear this sound from lake Erie in winter, I live by. Makes me sleep like a baby.

One of my favorite sounds of Nature. Howling winds.

I lived in Haverfordwest Wales for a while, and at certain times of the year we got the strong Welsh Wind at night that was very similar to this. Deeper tones, for sure. And yes, it was scary for a time - and then you get used to it. And then you look forward to it. When you leave, you miss it. To me it always sounded like a chorus of lost and tormented souls. Very cool stuff.

Ah yes on a night such as this how nice to snuggle down into the comforting warmth of your big safe bed: your "igloo" made out of thick comforters and freshly scented sheets,impervious to the howling icy storm raging a few feet away.

Thank you andreaa81 for this upload, I use it all the time to help get to sleep.

Давно искала эти звуки настоящей зимы . Большое спасибо !

Perfect with my wind chimes, for my afternoon nap! Window open and light breeze. 😴😴😴😴😴😴😴

Reminds me of my childhood memories when I use to sleep with my family

Soothing AF!

I live in South Africa, as a child I lived in Europe, this video brought back good memories

WIND soothes the VERY SOUL these sounds of wind ease ALL my tensions and stress soon only relaxation and SLEEP remain - THANKS FOR VIDEO REPLY

I think when I hear winds like this there's an appreciation of the cozy little apartment I live in. I seem to only like it on stormy days. 🤔🤣

The best winter sound ever!

I love this..... best howling winds on RU-vid! My grand baby thinks it’s scary but it’s comforting to me.

it's both calming and creepy at the same time

Imagine those in the dyatlov pass incident hearing this at night.

The wind, the wind, speaking to your soul.. listen to what it says...

This nature sound is comfortable to the ears and the mind for sleeping

Always gets me to sleep this

My memories with this kind of wind are lonely ones, it was my transition from being a kid to preteen. I was going around outside, looking for neighborhood kids to play with who are usually around, but not finding any. So just just walked to my school playground and sat in the slide for a while. Might have fallen asleep there, not sure, but this type of wind has always followed me in my dreams. Sometimes it turns into weird shapeless music, sometimes it just gets overwhelming (like when I have skyscraper nightmares, or dreams of getting swept away by the wind)

Wolfs howling in space.

geez, that certainly sends a considerable amount of chills down my spine. In my 18 years of my life, that's arguably one of the most haunted noises I've ever experienced. I guarantee u that this will undoubtly scare even the most courageous, determined, curious, brave or valiant man you'll ever see. Truly inspiring in a ghost hunter perspective.

This sound effect is brilliant for improvisation in drama if you wish to have a cold winter scene!

This is just what I've been looking for and I bought the CD of it too.

"Wind's howling" - Geralt of Rivia

howling wind always scares me. I don't know why=eerie

Best sound yet and natural... Thank God....

Wind´s howling.. - Geralt of Rivia, 1272

This is what plays when your at one end of a hall way and all the lights go out but one where a little girl with a white dress and black hair looking down to the ground while holding a really cute teddy bear

Oh my god, this sounds exactly like the wind blowing over my house.

Thanks for helping me sleep a little better. This is the perfect wind sounds on RU-vid.&been looking or should I say listening for a Real good Sounding recording for a while. Thank you again,will be using this a lot now.😴👌👍.

Fabulous, tried loads of others but keep coming back to this one thank you xxx

i remember my home in kosovo as a child a house in mountains and i was always slepping alone in a warm room but those sounds made me feel so cold and alone.
