A heavy, hand-drawn display face with thick, inky strokes and strongly irregular contours. Letterforms are built from rounded, blobby masses punctuated by occasional spikes, notches, and drip-like terminals, creating a wet-brush or smeared-ink silhouette. Edges are intentionally rough and uneven, counters vary from glyph to glyph, and widths fluctuate noticeably, giving the alphabet a restless rhythm. The overall construction stays upright and readable, but the baseline and stroke endings feel unstable and organic.
Best suited to short, high-impact applications such as Halloween promotions, horror-themed posters, party invitations, packaging, or title treatments for games and videos. It works especially well when you want the type to contribute atmosphere and texture rather than stay neutral, and it performs strongest at display sizes where the rough edges and drips can be appreciated.
The font conveys a creepy, messy energy—like hand-painted lettering from a horror prop, a haunted house sign, or a low-fi slasher poster. Its drips and ragged outlines suggest decay and grime, while the chunky weight keeps it loud and attention-grabbing. The tone lands between playful-spooky and unsettling, depending on setting and scale.
The design appears intended to mimic hastily painted or marker-brushed lettering with a distressed, dripping finish. Its irregular outlines and variable letter widths prioritize mood and handmade character over typographic restraint, aiming to deliver immediate genre signaling for spooky or gritty visual themes.
In text settings, the irregular stroke edges create a strong texture and visual noise that becomes more pronounced at smaller sizes. Several glyphs show exaggerated terminals and asymmetric bowls, which helps the face feel handmade rather than mechanically distressed. Numerals follow the same inky, roughened logic and read clearly in short strings.
