A display face with heavy, condensed letterforms and a rough, hand-cut silhouette. Strokes are mostly vertical and upright, but edges are intentionally uneven, with pointed notches, torn contours, and frequent drip-like terminals that descend from bowls and crossbars. Counters tend to be tight and irregular, and curves are lumpy rather than geometric, producing an organic rhythm across words. Numerals and punctuation echo the same distressed treatment, with consistent spurts and dangling shapes that read as liquid or decay.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as horror or Halloween posters, haunted house and event flyers, film or game title cards, and dramatic chapter headings. It can also work on packaging or labels where a distressed, ooze-like texture is part of the concept, especially when set large with generous tracking.
The overall tone is horror-leaning and theatrical, evoking slime, blood drips, and worn signage rather than refined print. It balances menace with a B-movie, seasonal-fun energy, making it feel more like a haunted attraction poster than a grim, serious gothic.
The design appears intended to deliver instant genre signaling through drips and distressed contours while maintaining straightforward, upright construction for quick recognition. Its narrow, heavy forms prioritize bold headline presence, with the texture doing most of the expressive work.
The dripping terminals and ragged edges create strong texture at line level; in longer text the distressed details can visually merge, so spacing and size become important for clarity. The condensed proportions help titles stay compact, while the irregular outlines keep the word shapes highly distinctive.
