A wiry, hand-drawn print with narrow proportions and lively irregularity. Strokes show pen-like pressure changes with occasional tapering terminals, blots, and rough edges that create a slightly distressed texture. Letterforms are mostly upright with uneven baselines and variable stroke endings, giving the set a nervous, animated rhythm. Counters tend to be small and tight, and many forms feel tall and slender, with simplified shapes and quick, gestural joins where strokes meet.
Best suited for short-to-medium display settings where texture is desirable: horror and Halloween graphics, game titles and UI flavor text, posters, album art, and illustrated book covers. It can also work for pull quotes or packaging accents when paired with a calmer text face for body copy.
The overall tone is eerie and mischievous, like hurried lettering for a creepy note or a ghost-story title card. Its scratchy texture and jittery rhythm read as handmade and a bit unsettling, while still remaining legible and playful.
The design appears intended to capture the immediacy of pen-drawn lettering with deliberate imperfections—tapered strokes, rough edges, and uneven spacing—to create atmosphere and personality. It prioritizes expressive texture and mood over typographic regularity, making it a characterful option for thematic display work.
Capital letters have a display-like presence with exaggerated verticality, while lowercase stays compact and narrow, contributing to a busy texture in paragraphs. Numerals and punctuation carry the same rough, inked character, helping the font feel consistent across mixed copy.
