A heavy display face with chunky silhouettes and aggressively irregular contours. Stems and terminals are carved into sharp nicks and torn-looking notches, creating a chiseled, eroded edge throughout. Counters are small and uneven, with occasional pinched apertures, and the overall rhythm is intentionally lumpy, giving letters a hand-cut, distressed feel rather than smooth geometry.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as horror posters, Halloween promotions, game titles, band merch, or themed packaging. It works well as a headline or logo-style wordmark where the distressed edge detail can be appreciated, and can add immediate atmosphere to pull quotes or chapter openers when used sparingly.
The overall tone is ominous and theatrical, suggesting classic horror title cards and haunted-house signage. Its rough, gnawed edges read as spooky and unsettling, but with a slightly tongue-in-cheek, B-movie energy that keeps it from feeling purely grim.
The design appears intended to deliver instant thematic character through a rugged, torn outline and compact interior spaces, prioritizing mood and texture over neutrality. Its consistent distress pattern across caps, lowercase, and numerals suggests a deliberate system for spooky display typography in attention-grabbing contexts.
Uppercase forms stay broadly blocky while still showing strong irregularity along shoulders and serifs, and the lowercase maintains similar texture for consistent voice in mixed case. Numerals share the same torn edge language, keeping headings and short callouts visually cohesive. The texture is strong enough that fine spacing and small sizes may feel dense, especially where counters tighten.
