A slanted, brush-like display face with jagged, torn edges and sharply tapered terminals. Strokes feel hand-rendered and irregular, with pointed hooks and splintered corners that create a scratchy silhouette. Curves are faceted rather than smooth, and counters can appear uneven and slightly gnawed, reinforcing the distressed texture. Spacing and widths fluctuate from glyph to glyph, producing a restless rhythm that reads as intentionally rough rather than geometric or polished.
Well-suited for horror and suspense titles, event promotions, and thematic graphics where atmosphere matters more than neutrality. It performs best in headlines, logos, and short callouts for games, film/series key art, haunted attractions, or seasonal campaigns. For longer text, it’s better used sparingly as an accent due to its high visual noise.
The overall tone is tense and ominous, with a sharp, knife-cut energy that suggests danger and suspense. Its ragged contours and spiky terminals evoke horror and supernatural themes without relying on literal drips, leaning instead into a frantic, hand-made menace. The slant adds urgency, as if the lettering is scrawled in haste.
The design appears intended to mimic fast, aggressive brush lettering that has been distressed into a jagged, blade-like texture. Its goal is strong thematic signaling and immediate mood-setting, prioritizing dramatic silhouette and expressive irregularity over typographic restraint.
Uppercase forms tend to be tall and narrow with prominent spikes, while lowercase maintains the same scratchy texture for a consistent voice in mixed-case settings. Numerals share the distressed, chiseled feel and remain bold enough to stand out in short bursts. The texture is strong, so the font is most effective when given room and set at moderate-to-large sizes to preserve the sharp details.
