A jagged blackletter-inspired display face with heavy, uneven strokes and aggressively notched contours. Letterforms are built from chunky vertical stems and fractured serifs that taper into sharp spikes, creating a torn, distressed silhouette. Counters are tight and irregular, and many characters show bite-like cutouts along the edges, producing a rough, eroded rhythm. Spacing and widths vary noticeably across glyphs, emphasizing an unstable, hand-hewn texture in both caps and lowercase.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as horror film titles, Halloween and haunted attraction promotion, metal or dark-event flyers, and game or streaming graphics where atmosphere is prioritized. It also works for logos and wordmarks in macabre or gothic themes, particularly at large sizes where the distressed detailing can be appreciated.
The font projects a dark, ominous tone—more haunted manuscript than polished engraving. Its thorny terminals and distressed edges suggest horror, occult ephemera, and macabre storytelling, with a theatrical intensity that reads as intentionally unruly rather than refined.
The design appears intended to deliver immediate horror-flavored character through blackletter structure combined with deliberate distressing. Its exaggerated spikes and chipped edges aim to make even simple words feel sinister and unstable, functioning primarily as a dramatic display option rather than a text face.
In the sample text, the dense texture and busy edges create strong atmosphere but reduce clarity at smaller sizes; the face performs best when given room to breathe. Numerals and capitals carry especially dramatic silhouettes, while lowercase maintains the same shredded perimeter for consistent mood.
