A condensed, heavy display face with chunky verticals and irregular, torn-looking terminals. Many strokes end in uneven points and drip-like protrusions, creating a distressed silhouette while keeping the overall letterforms upright and largely monoline in feel. Counters are tight and simplified, and curves are slightly squared off, producing a bold, poster-friendly texture with visibly rough bottom edges and occasional bite-like notches. Numerals match the same distressed, dangling finish and compact proportions.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, cover art, and themed packaging where the dripping terminals can be read clearly. It works well for Halloween promotions, haunted attractions, horror-comedy projects, and punchy on-screen title cards, especially when given generous size and spacing.
The font projects a spooky, B-movie horror mood—more theatrical than truly grim—evoking slime, dripping paint, and haunted-house signage. Its energetic raggedness reads as ominous at a glance while still feeling graphic and approachable for seasonal, entertainment-oriented themes.
The design appears intended to deliver immediate horror flavor through a condensed, heavyweight structure combined with dripping, torn terminals—prioritizing silhouette and atmosphere over neutral readability. It’s built to look like wet ink, ooze, or shredded paper, making the texture the primary identifying feature in display use.
The distressed details are strong enough to become part of the rhythm of the text, especially along baselines where the drips cluster and create a flickering edge. Because the irregularities vary from glyph to glyph, longer lines gain a lively, noisy texture that can overpower small sizes or dense layouts.
