This is a heavy, slanted display face with a hand-drawn, brush-like construction and uneven stroke edges. Letterforms are compact and upright-to-right-leaning with tight internal counters and a lively, irregular rhythm. Many strokes terminate in pointed flicks or elongated teardrop drips, creating a consistent “wet ink” silhouette along baselines and joins. Curves are slightly squashed and the overall texture is intentionally rough, with small notches and wobble that read as organic rather than geometric.
Best suited for headlines, posters, title cards, packaging, and social graphics where a spooky, dripping texture is the main visual cue. It performs especially well in short bursts—logos, badges, and callouts—paired with simpler supporting type for readability.
The dripping terminals and ragged brush energy give the font an unmistakably horror-leaning, haunted tone. It feels theatrical and high-contrast in mood—more spooky-fun and pulp than subtle dread—well suited to jump-scare headlines, monster-movie pastiche, and eerie seasonal graphics.
The design appears intended to deliver immediate thematic impact through brushy, slanted letterforms and consistent drip-like terminals, prioritizing atmosphere and silhouette over neutral readability. It aims to evoke ink, slime, or melting paint while maintaining recognizable Latin letter shapes for punchy display use.
In text settings, the dense black shapes and irregular edges create a strong, noisy texture that works best at larger sizes. The most distinctive signature is the repeated drip motif on bottoms and inner corners, which reinforces the theme even in short words and numerals.
