A heavy, hand-drawn display face with rounded, blobby counters and irregular, brush-like edges. Many glyphs end in elongated drips and tapered terminals that hang below the baseline, creating a wet-ink silhouette. Strokes are generally thick with occasional pinch points and slight wobble, while widths vary noticeably from letter to letter for an intentionally uneven rhythm. Curves are soft and inflated, and joins are simplified, prioritizing graphic impact over precision.
Best suited to headlines and short bursts of text where the dripping silhouette can be appreciated—Halloween promotions, haunted attractions, horror-comedy posters, game title screens, and themed packaging. It can work for logos or badges when set large and given enough spacing to keep the drips from crowding adjacent letters.
The dripping terminals and uneven stroke behavior give the font an eerie, B-movie horror energy that reads as both unsettling and fun. Its playful wobble keeps it from feeling too severe, leaning toward a theatrical, haunted-house tone rather than stark dread.
The design appears intended to evoke dripping paint or oozing ink while maintaining friendly, legible letterforms. Its consistent use of tapering drips and rounded shapes suggests a focus on instantly recognizable themed impact for display typography.
The drip details are a dominant motif across caps, lowercase, and figures, so texture builds quickly in longer lines. At smaller sizes the fine drips and narrow pinch points may visually fill in, while at larger sizes the irregularities become a strong stylistic feature.
