A very heavy, right-leaning display face built from thick, brush-like strokes with sharp tapers and irregular, ragged edges. The letterforms show consistent internal slashes and notches that read like cutouts or scratch marks, creating a lively, distressed texture across counters and bowls. Terminals are often pointed or clawed, and stroke endings frequently flare or hook, giving each glyph a dynamic, hand-rendered silhouette. Spacing and widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, reinforcing an energetic, uneven rhythm in text.
Best suited for posters, title cards, packaging callouts, and event or seasonal graphics where a dramatic, eerie texture is desirable. It performs strongest in short headlines, logos, and punchy phrases, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the slashed details can remain clear.
The overall tone is ominous and mischievous, with a jittery, slashed texture that suggests danger, speed, and a bit of dark humor. It feels like a horror-comic headline treatment—aggressive and theatrical rather than subtle.
The design appears intended to evoke a hand-painted, clawed brush aesthetic with built-in distress, delivering instant atmosphere and motion. Its primary goal is character and impact—creating a spooky, high-energy voice for display typography.
Because the interior cuts are prominent, the face relies on generous size and contrast with the background to keep shapes readable. Numerals and uppercase forms retain the same scratchy motif, helping titles and short bursts of text maintain a cohesive, high-impact look.
