A sharply serifed display face with high-contrast strokes and an intentionally distressed, eroded edge treatment. The forms show wedge-like terminals and thorny protrusions, with irregular notches and blot-like specks that suggest worn printing or ink splatter. Curves are slightly angularized and tensioned, while straight stems remain mostly upright, producing a rigid rhythm with a jittery, broken outline. Overall spacing reads fairly open for a display style, but the uneven contours add visual noise and texture across words.
Best suited to short headlines, title cards, poster typography, and packaging where atmosphere is the priority. It works well for horror, dark fantasy, and seasonal promotions, and can add instant mood to logos or lockups when used at larger sizes with generous spacing.
The texture and spiked terminals create an ominous, aged atmosphere reminiscent of horror titles and occult ephemera. It feels dramatic and unsettling rather than playful, with a gritty, “found artifact” tone that reads as haunted and ceremonial.
The design appears aimed at delivering a classic horror display voice by combining traditional serif structures with aggressive, distressed detailing. Its consistent grunge and thorny terminals prioritize texture and mood over clean text readability, targeting impactful, cinematic typography.
The distressing is consistently applied across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, giving the set a cohesive weathered look. The roughness is pronounced enough that fine details can fill in at smaller sizes, making it visually strongest when given room to breathe.
