Screetching sound w/ video

https://youtu.be/cOnPw2M2mIE

So after starting the car up, about 5 seconds after ignition rolls over, I put it on reverse and this nasty sound comes on. When I stop reversing sound is still there. After I put it in drive it gets louder and worse. But again once I brake and stop, it still makes that sound and then sound goes away after about 25 seconds.

It doesn't make a sound for the rest of the day, until the very next day.

Drives me crazy!! Please help. Notice my facial expression, LoL. I was disgusted and felt like my eardrums were going to pop.

Sounds like the altenator belt needs be tightened up OR changed if it's been doing it for awhile now. If you do change the belt you may notice that sound come back as the new belt stretches a little but when or if it does just tighten it up a little more and you should be good to go. From your descrition that would be what i'd bet on it being is the altenator belt.

Thank you my good sir, I didn't think about the belt. The video should make it more clear tho.

I would say check your belts. They need to be tight or changed.
