A heavy, condensed display face with tall vertical proportions and consistently thick strokes. Forms are largely rectilinear with squared counters and clipped corners, then accented by sharp, wedge-like terminals and irregular notches that create a subtly “dripping” or thorny silhouette. Curves are minimized and simplified into flattened arcs (notably in bowls), while diagonals appear as sharp, faceted cuts. Spacing feels compact and rhythmic, with many letters sharing a strong vertical spine and small interior apertures that boost density and impact.
Best suited to short display settings where its distinctive terminals and dense black texture can read clearly: posters, event promos, seasonal/Halloween graphics, title sequences, packaging callouts, and playful game or streaming overlays. It’s most effective at medium-to-large sizes where the small counters and decorative cuts don’t fill in.
The overall tone is theatrical and slightly macabre, mixing a haunted-house edge with tongue-in-cheek humor. Its jagged terminals and drippy cuts suggest horror and Halloween cues, but the uniform heft and cartoonish irregularities keep it light and entertaining rather than truly sinister.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a compact width while signaling a crafted, irregular personality through repeated notches and tapered terminals. It aims to feel bold and memorable, evoking carved or cut shapes with a slightly drippy, spooky finish.
Lowercase and uppercase share a similarly blocky construction, helping the font maintain a consistent texture across mixed-case settings. Numerals follow the same carved, notched logic, reading clearly at display sizes while preserving the font’s quirky, cut-out personality.
