A jagged, angular display face with sharp terminals and wedge-like joins that feel cut or chipped rather than drawn with smooth curves. Strokes show slight, deliberate irregularity in width and edge contour, creating a hand-made rhythm while keeping a consistent overall structure. Counters are often tight and polygonal, and curves (like C, O, and S) are faceted into pointed arcs. The alphabet maintains clear letter identities, but the silhouettes lean heavily on aggressive diagonals, notched corners, and tapered ends for impact.
Works best for short, high-impact settings such as horror or dark-fantasy titles, Halloween promotions, escape-room branding, and game or streaming overlays. It can also suit packaging or labels aiming for a cursed, medieval, or occult flavor, where the jagged texture adds atmosphere more than neutrality.
The font projects an ominous, ritualistic tone—evoking carved inscriptions, dark-fantasy titles, and haunted signage. Its spiky silhouettes and roughened edges create tension and unease, reading as intentionally uncivilized and dramatic rather than refined or friendly.
The design appears intended to mimic a carved or scratched letterform language—part calligraphic, part chiseled—prioritizing mood and silhouette over smooth readability. Its consistent use of spikes, notches, and faceted curves suggests a deliberate system built for dramatic display typography.
In text, the texture becomes lively and slightly chaotic, with strong black shapes and frequent pointed terminals producing a thorny line color. Numerals follow the same cut-stone, faceted logic, matching the capitals and lowercase for cohesive titling. Best results come from generous tracking and sizes where the sharp details can breathe.
