An expressive, hand-rendered display face with jagged, brush-like strokes and irregular contours. Letterforms are built from tapered terminals and angular turns, with a slightly chiseled silhouette that wobbles subtly from glyph to glyph for an intentionally distressed rhythm. Counters are uneven and organic, curves often flatten into facets, and joins can pinch into sharp points, creating a broken, scratchy texture. Capitals feel relatively broad and emblematic while lowercase is more compact and varied, with a lively, handmade baseline and uneven sidebearings that emphasize the rough, inked construction.
Best suited to display settings such as horror and thriller titles, film or event posters, game logos, haunted-attraction signage, and Halloween promotions. It also works well for album art, book covers, and short taglines where an ominous, hand-inked atmosphere is desired, especially when paired with simpler supporting text.
The overall tone is ominous and theatrical, evoking horror props, cursed manuscripts, and supernatural signage. Its spiky tapers and ragged edges suggest tension and danger, lending a suspenseful, nocturnal mood that reads as eerie rather than playful. The handmade irregularity adds a ritualistic, occult flavor—like lettering painted quickly before something arrives.
The design appears intended to mimic rough brush lettering with sharpened, eroded edges, prioritizing atmosphere and impact over smooth regularity. Its consistent use of tapered spikes, uneven contours, and distressed counters suggests a purposeful horror-forward aesthetic meant for bold headlines and thematic branding.
The sample text shows good presence at larger sizes where the torn edges and pointed terminals can be appreciated; at smaller sizes the internal roughness and irregular spacing can become visually busy. Numerals and capitals keep the same distressed logic, maintaining consistency for short bursts of text while preserving a deliberately unstable texture.
