A narrow, angular display face with sharp, wedge-like terminals and an irregular, hand-cut silhouette. Strokes show subtle modulation and frequent kinked joints, creating a carved or ink-scratched texture rather than smooth curves. Counters are tight and often faceted; bowls and shoulders resolve into pointed corners, while descenders frequently end in hooky, dagger-like points. Overall spacing and widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, producing a lively, uneven rhythm that reads as intentionally rough and decorative.
Best suited for short headlines, titles, and punchy display lines where its jagged details can be appreciated—such as horror or fantasy posters, game titles and interface headings, themed event flyers, and album or merch graphics. It can also work for small bursts of emphasis in branding or packaging when a quirky, ominous tone is desired.
The letterforms project a darkly playful, occult-leaning mood—more mischievous than menacing—like a stylized “spellbook” or haunted-poster voice. Its jagged edges and pointed details add drama and tension, while the quirky irregularity keeps it from feeling formal or strictly historical.
The design appears intended to deliver an instantly characterful, irregular display voice built from sharp angles and pointed terminals, prioritizing atmosphere and personality over neutrality. Its consistent use of faceting and dagger-like endings suggests a deliberate aim toward spooky, theatrical styling in compact, attention-grabbing letterforms.
In the sample text, the texture becomes quite dense at smaller sizes due to narrow forms and sharp interior corners, while larger settings highlight the distinctive terminals and irregular outlines. Numerals and capitals share the same spiky, faceted construction, supporting cohesive headline and titling use.
