This display face is built from sharp, angular strokes with aggressive tapers that form thorn-like terminals. Letterforms are irregular and fractured, mixing pointed wedges with occasional inner cutouts that feel carved or chipped out of solid shapes. The rhythm is intentionally uneven, with variable glyph widths and a compact lowercase that sits low relative to tall ascenders, producing a bristling, vertical texture in text. Counters are tight and sometimes partially enclosed, and the overall silhouette reads as a series of jagged peaks rather than smooth curves.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as horror film titles, Halloween event graphics, game logos, poster headlines, and themed packaging where texture and mood are more important than sustained legibility. It can also work for chapter openers, pull quotes, or UI title cards in dark-fantasy or supernatural contexts when used at larger sizes with generous spacing.
The font conveys a dark, ominous tone, suggesting hexes, black magic, and horror title tropes. Its spiked contours and unstable geometry give it an uneasy, hostile energy that feels more like a warning or incantation than neutral reading text.
The design appears intended to mimic hand-cut, rune-like lettering with sharp, predatory terminals and a distressed, carved texture. It aims to deliver an immediate horror/occult signal through silhouette-first letterforms and an intentionally erratic rhythm.
In longer lines the strong vertical spikes and narrow openings create a dense, high-noise word shape, prioritizing atmosphere over clarity. Numerals and capitals keep the same carved, weapon-like construction, helping headlines and short phrases stay stylistically consistent.
