A jagged, brush-painted display face with thick, irregular strokes and sharp, tapered terminals. Letterforms show a pronounced slant and a lively baseline with uneven widths and rough contours, as if painted quickly with a loaded brush. Many strokes end in spikes or small drips, with counters that are slightly pinched and asymmetrical. The overall construction favors expressive silhouettes over geometric regularity, keeping a consistent rough texture across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as posters, title cards, and packaging where atmosphere matters more than refinement. It works well for horror-themed promotions, band/album art, and game or film graphics, especially at larger sizes where the ragged edges and tapered drips can read clearly.
The font projects a tense, supernatural mood—part haunted-house sign, part ritual scrawl. Its scratchy edges and dripping tips suggest danger, grime, and late-night horror energy, with an unruly, feverish rhythm that feels intentionally uncontrolled.
The design appears intended to mimic fast, hand-painted lettering with horror-tinged distress—combining heavy brush mass with sharpened ends and occasional drip-like artifacts. Its irregular widths and energetic slant prioritize expressive texture and mood over neutrality, aiming to deliver instant genre signaling in display settings.
The uppercase set reads as the primary voice: broad, aggressive shapes with dramatic terminals. Lowercase is simpler and more handwritten, which can create a noticeable shift in tone between cases. Numerals maintain the same brushy, splintered endings, making them well suited to stylized numbering in titles and posters.
