A rough, hand-rendered sans with uneven stroke edges and subtly wobbly verticals that mimic a dry-brush or felt-tip texture. Terminals are blunt and irregular, with occasional hooky spur-like ends that add bite without turning into full drips. Curves (O, C, S) are slightly lumpy and asymmetrical, and straight strokes show small thickness fluctuations, creating a consistent distressed rhythm. Uppercase forms stay mostly simple and geometric, while lowercase introduces more idiosyncrasy in letters like a, g, j, and y; figures are similarly handmade with irregular bowls and angled joins.
Well suited to horror-themed posters, Halloween promotions, haunted-attraction signage, and title treatments where a distressed handmade voice is desirable. It can also work for short paragraphs in themed materials (taglines, flavor text, UI labels) when set with comfortable tracking and generous line spacing.
The overall tone is spooky in a low-fi, DIY way—more haunted carnival and photocopied flyer than polished cinematic horror. Its jittery outlines and imperfect construction give it an anxious, unsettling energy, while the approachable, rounded skeleton keeps it readable enough for short bursts of text.
The design appears intended to simulate quickly inked lettering with controlled distress—delivering a creepy, handmade atmosphere while preserving recognizable letterforms for practical display use.
Spacing appears slightly uneven by design, reinforcing the handmade feel; counters remain open and clear, which helps legibility despite the distressed edges. The font reads best when its texture can be seen—too small and the edge noise may collapse into blur, too large and the wobble becomes a dominant visual motif.
