A wiry display face with extremely thin hairlines and abrupt, ink-starved thick–thin transitions that create a scratched, cut-paper silhouette. Strokes end in sharp tapers and thorn-like points, with frequent rough notches and irregular edges that read as intentional distress rather than texture noise. Counters are small and often uneven, and curved forms look slightly collapsed or bitten away, giving O/Q/C-like shapes a brittle, fractured ring. Overall spacing and letterfit feel lively and inconsistent in a controlled way, producing an erratic rhythm that emphasizes the hand-wrought, fragile construction.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as horror and thriller titles, Halloween promotions, occult-themed packaging, game title screens, and chapter headings. It also works well for logo-like wordmarks where the distressed spikes and tapers can be appreciated without the demands of long-form readability.
The font projects a haunted, unsettling tone—more occult and whispery than loud and bloody. Its spines, nicks, and tapering terminals suggest shadowy folklore, cursed manuscripts, and ritual signage, lending text a tense, supernatural mood.
The design appears intended to mimic a haunted, deteriorated letterform language—like ink pulled thin, scratched into parchment, or carved and weathered—while maintaining recognizable serif-like structure for dramatic display use.
In the sample text, the jagged terminals and uneven stroke continuity become most legible at larger sizes, where the distressed contours read clearly as stylistic detail. Round letters remain slightly irregular, and the thin joins can appear intentionally broken in places, reinforcing the brittle, decayed character.
