A heavy, hand-cut display face with jagged, wedge-like terminals and faceted curves that feel carved rather than drawn. Strokes keep a dense, dark color while edges wobble and taper unpredictably, producing an irregular rhythm across words. Forms mix sharp angles with blunt, slabby ends; counters are tight and sometimes diamond-like, and several characters lean on asymmetrical cuts that heighten the rough, handmade texture. Numerals and capitals read as bold silhouettes with intentionally uneven widths and a slightly staggered baseline feel in text.
Well suited to horror and seasonal headlines, title cards, posters, and packaging where a loud, spooky voice is needed. It can also work for game menus, event promos, or short pull quotes where the distressed, carved texture becomes part of the visual identity.
The overall tone is ominous and occult-leaning, like lettering scratched into stone or painted in a hurried, spooky hand. Despite the darkness, the quirky inconsistencies and bouncy shapes give it a mischievous, B-movie energy rather than purely grim realism.
Likely designed to evoke hand-made, carved or cut lettering with an unsettling edge, prioritizing silhouette impact and texture over smooth refinement. The irregular cuts and sharp terminals appear intentional to create a haunted, ritualistic display flavor that stands out instantly in headlines.
In the sample text, the strong black mass and angular detailing stay legible at larger sizes, while the irregular edges become a defining texture. The face looks best when its roughness is allowed to show; small sizes or tight spacing may cause shapes and counters to close up visually.
