A compact, heavy display face with irregular, hand-cut contours and frequent droplet-like terminals. Strokes are blocky and mostly monoline, but edges wobble and notch, producing a rough silhouette with occasional pointed corners and slight inward bites. Counters are small and angular, and many letters show short descenders or dangling spur details that create a stained or melting effect. Spacing and widths feel intentionally uneven, giving the alphabet a jittery rhythm while remaining generally upright and readable at display sizes.
Best suited for short headlines and punchy display settings where texture is a feature: Halloween and haunted-attraction promotions, horror or thriller title cards, themed event posters, game menus, and edgy packaging or stickers. Use generous size and breathing room to keep the ragged details from crowding in longer lines.
The overall tone is eerie and playful—more haunted-house poster than grim realism. Its drips, spikes, and rough carving suggest slime, ink, or torn paper, lending an ominous, B-movie horror energy that reads as stylized and theatrical.
The design appears intended to deliver an instantly spooky, drippy texture while keeping letterforms straightforward enough to read quickly. The controlled irregularity suggests a deliberate “crafted” look—like cut vinyl, smeared ink, or melting paint—aimed at high-impact thematic branding.
The sample text shows consistent texture across uppercase and lowercase, with distinctive, irregular terminals appearing on many glyphs, especially at lower right edges and on descenders. Numerals share the same chunky, ragged construction and are visually assertive for titling or numbering.
