A heavy display face built from compact, vertically oriented forms with a jagged, chiseled silhouette. Strokes end in sharp, irregular points and wedge-like terminals, creating a toothy edge along stems, bowls, and serifs. Counters are relatively small and often pinched, while joins and curves appear intentionally roughened for a distressed, hand-cut feel. Overall widths vary by letter, but the rhythm stays dense and dark, with strong figure–ground contrast and aggressive punctuation-like spur details throughout.
Best used at display sizes for headlines, title cards, posters, and packaging where an ominous or haunted mood is desired. It can work well for event graphics (especially seasonal themes), game titles and UI accents, and short pulls or badges where the jagged texture reads as intentional character rather than noise.
The font conveys a horror-leaning, haunted tone with a theatrical, B-movie energy. Its sharp nicks and uneven edges suggest danger and decay, while the exaggerated spikes keep it fun rather than purely grim. The result feels suited to eerie storytelling and spooky spectacle.
The design appears intended to deliver instant spooky personality through exaggerated spikes, distressed edges, and dense black shapes, prioritizing atmosphere and impact over long-form readability. Its consistent ragged terminal system suggests a deliberate, stylized approach to creating a cohesive horror display voice across caps, lowercase, and figures.
In the sample text, the ragged contour remains consistent across sizes, producing a busy texture that can visually merge in longer passages. The numerals and lowercase follow the same spurred terminal language, helping headlines and mixed-case settings feel cohesive.
