A compact, heavy display face with sharp, uneven terminals and subtly irregular contours that feel hand-cut rather than mechanically drawn. Strokes show slight modulation and frequent wedge-like flares, producing a chiseled silhouette with small notches and hooks. Bowls and counters are kept fairly open for the weight, while many joins are angular and slightly pinched, creating a lively, jittery rhythm across words. Numerals and capitals match the same pointed, cut-paper texture, with inconsistent widths that add to the roughened, organic cadence.
Best suited to short, attention-grabbing settings such as titles, posters, packaging, and on-screen headers where the jagged silhouette can be appreciated. It works well for horror, fantasy, and seasonal themes, especially when paired with simpler supporting text to avoid texture overload in longer passages.
The overall tone is ominous and theatrical, leaning into storybook horror and haunted-house signage rather than pure gothic formality. Its prickly edges and quirky proportions give it a mischievous, spellbook-like character that reads as eerie but playful.
The design appears intended to evoke handmade, ominous lettering through sharp cut-ins, thorny terminals, and a slightly irregular draw—balancing legibility with a deliberately unsettling, decorative edge.
In text lines, the font maintains strong color and clear word shapes, but the active outlines and spurred terminals create visual noise at smaller sizes. The spikiness is distributed consistently across the alphabet, so headings look cohesive even with mixed case and numerals.
