A jagged display face built from sharp, angular strokes with chiseled terminals and irregular, blade-like protrusions. The letterforms lean forward with a restless rhythm, combining chunky masses with sudden tapers and pointed cuts that suggest a hand-drawn or brush-carved construction. Counters are compact and sometimes asymmetrical, and the baseline feel is slightly uneven due to varied descenders and aggressive terminal shapes. Overall spacing is tight and energetic, producing a dense, punchy texture in words and lines.
Best used at display sizes where the spiky terminals and carved silhouettes remain clear—movie or event titles, Halloween promotions, horror or fantasy book covers, album artwork, and game branding. It can also work for short bursts of text such as pull quotes or labels when a deliberately unsettling tone is desired, but it will be less comfortable for extended reading at small sizes.
The font projects an eerie, menacing tone with a theatrical, horror-leaning edge. Its spurs and clawed terminals evoke suspense and the supernatural, while the forward slant adds urgency and motion. In text samples it feels loud and confrontational rather than refined, suited to creating tension and drama.
The design appears intended to deliver an immediate “scare” cue through aggressive silhouettes, sharp cuts, and a tense forward motion, prioritizing atmosphere and impact over neutrality. The consistent use of pointed terminals and irregular edges suggests a crafted, horror-themed aesthetic aimed at attention-grabbing headlines and branding.
Uppercase forms read as emblematic and poster-like, while the lowercase carries the same sharpened language with slightly more irregularity, reinforcing a hand-made feel. Numerals follow the same angular carving style, staying consistent with the pointed terminals and compact interior spaces.
