A heavy, ink-saturated display face with aggressively irregular outlines and a pitted, eroded edge. Strokes are thick and rounded overall, but the perimeter breaks into small bites, blobs, and notches that create a jittery silhouette. Counters are uneven and occasionally partially closed by spurs, giving letters a stamped or smeared look. Spacing reads loose and organic, with lumpy terminals and inconsistent inner shapes that keep the texture lively across words and lines.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings where texture is a feature: titles, posters, packaging, and social graphics for spooky events or horror entertainment. It works well at medium to large sizes where the distressed contour reads clearly; for longer text, use generous tracking and line spacing to keep the rough edges from visually clumping.
The texture feels ominous and uncanny, like letters cut from decayed paper or pulled from a messy black-ink stamp. Its rough, blotting character leans into horror and Halloween energy while staying readable enough to communicate a playful, B-movie menace.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold headline voice with a deliberately degraded, organic edge—prioritizing atmosphere over precision. Its consistent distressing and chunky silhouettes suggest a goal of instantly signaling menace and grime while preserving recognizable letterforms.
The uppercase carries the strongest presence with broad, simplified forms, while lowercase and numerals maintain the same corroded edge treatment for a consistent “rotted” rhythm. The ampersand and punctuation inherit the same blobby distressing, reinforcing the hand-made, contaminated surface across the set.
