Banshee - redoing the 5e monster manual

Today is the Banshee. I kinda like her already, so all I wanted to do was make getting rid of her interesting and unique. 

So, Banshee's are murdered queens and the only way to lay eyes on them to be able to slay them is to be a part of their court. So you have to find out what it took to become a part of this court, then see if you can even still do those things since the queen is dead. 

Banshees attempt to blind you by showing you their gruesome death. 

Then they wail to deafen you. 

This makes you their servant. Part of their undead court, so to speak. Then they *ask nicely* if you'd kindly kill those mother fuckers that let her die. 

So while all this garbage is going on, the party has to play Ace Attorney to bring the murderer to justice. I guess you can just kill them...but I'd rule that justice is more important. The banshee doesn't make sense. They are angry spirits who are really fucking mad that they died, but they were queens and believe in justice. 

If presented with any sort of contradiction, they'll probably just wail.
