A distressed display face with jagged, torn-looking contours and frequent needle-like terminals. Strokes are heavy and uneven, with rough edges that mimic worn ink or eroded material rather than clean vector outlines. Counters are irregular and slightly pinched, and many joins show abrupt nicks and notches that create a twitchy rhythm across words. The overall construction stays upright and compact, with slightly inconsistent widths and lively silhouettes that keep each glyph visibly unique while remaining legible at display sizes.
Works best for short, high-impact settings where texture is a feature: horror or thriller titles, Halloween promotions, haunted-attraction materials, game and streaming cover art, and poster headlines. It can also add atmosphere to chapter openers, pull quotes, or packaging accents when used sparingly and at larger sizes where the rough contours stay clear.
The letterforms project an ominous, horror-leaning mood—like scratched paint, torn paper, or ink that bled and broke apart. The spiky edges and unstable outlines give text a tense, unsettling energy suited to suspense and dark fantasy aesthetics.
The design intent appears to be creating a legible display alphabet that carries an aggressive, distressed texture—delivering immediate atmosphere through ragged edges, sharp terminals, and irregular counters while keeping familiar letter shapes for quick recognition.
The texture is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, so mixed-case settings retain the same rough intensity. Round characters (O, Q, 0, 8, 9) read as chiseled and uneven rather than geometric, and punctuation in the sample text maintains the same distressed edge quality, reinforcing the overall voice.
