A heavy, all-caps-and-lowercase display face with irregular, hand-formed silhouettes and conspicuous drip-like terminals. Strokes stay broadly chunky but break into ragged edges, with uneven contours that create a blotty, distressed texture across the alphabet. Counters are small and inconsistent, and joins often bulge or taper unpredictably, giving each glyph a carved/oozed look rather than a geometric one. Spacing and widths feel intentionally uneven, reinforcing an organic, rough-made rhythm in words and lines of text.
Well-suited for short, high-impact text such as horror and Halloween headlines, film or game title treatments, haunted attraction signage, and themed packaging or social graphics. It works especially well when paired with a clean sans or simple serif for supporting copy, letting the distressed display layer carry the atmosphere.
The letterforms project a classic haunted-house energy: inky, oozy, and slightly chaotic. The drips and torn edges read as slime, blood, or melting paint, producing a tense, macabre tone that also leans into playful, B-movie theatrics rather than realism.
The design appears intended to quickly signal a spooky, messy, liquid-like aesthetic through exaggerated weight, ragged contours, and downward drips. Its inconsistencies look purposeful, aiming for a handcrafted, unsettling texture that reads instantly in display settings.
Legibility holds best at headline sizes where the ragged perimeter becomes an asset; at smaller sizes the distressed edges and tight counters can fill in and blur word shapes. Numerals match the same eroded, dripping treatment, keeping the set visually consistent for posters and event graphics.
