A jagged, hand-inked display face with uneven stroke edges and frequent tapered terminals that feel cut or chipped rather than smoothly drawn. Letterforms keep mostly upright posture and readable skeletons, but the outlines wobble with deliberate irregularity, producing a restless rhythm across words. Curves (O, C, G) are faceted and slightly lopsided, while verticals often narrow to sharp points or thorn-like spurs. The texture is consistently rough, giving solid black shapes a distressed, carved look rather than clean geometric precision.
Best suited to short, prominent settings where texture is an asset: horror or dark-fantasy titles, posters, cover art, and game/film branding. It can also work for signage-style labels or chapter heads where a distressed, ominous voice is desired. For longer paragraphs, its rough contours may become visually busy, so pairing with a calmer text face can help.
The font projects an eerie, occult-leaning tone—more cursed manuscript than playful Halloween. Its sharp cuts and ink-ragged contours suggest menace and tension, with a ritualistic, storybook-horror flavor that reads as unsettling rather than comedic. The overall atmosphere fits dark fantasy, haunted ephemera, and ominous title cards.
The design appears intended to mimic rough, hand-rendered lettering with a deliberately distressed edge—balancing familiar letter skeletons with sharp, tapering cuts to create a spooky, unsettling character. It prioritizes atmosphere and texture while keeping enough structural clarity for headline readability.
Spacing appears moderately open for a distressed design, helping legibility in short lines despite the noisy edges. Numerals match the same chipped, tapering behavior, with recognizable silhouettes that stay consistent with the alphabetic texture. The face feels intentionally imperfect, as if written with a worn nib or scratched into a surface.
