A condensed, right-leaning display face with sharp, blade-like terminals and calligraphic stroke modulation. Letterforms show medium contrast with pointed joins and frequent hooked or slashed entry/exit strokes that create a scratchy, incised rhythm. Curves are tightened into narrow bowls and ovals, while many stems end in tapered, fang-like tips; a few glyphs introduce uneven, slightly ragged contours that heighten the hand-cut feel. Numerals mirror the same narrow, italic structure with crisp teardrop and scimitar terminals.
Best suited to short display settings where its pointed terminals and condensed silhouettes can read as intentional texture—such as horror and thriller titling, game and streaming artwork, haunted event promotion, and dark-themed packaging or labels. Use at larger sizes to preserve the fine tapers and avoid crowding in longer passages.
The overall tone is tense and theatrical, evoking horror titles, occult ephemera, and dark fantasy aesthetics. Its sharp tapers and restless texture suggest danger and urgency, giving words a sinister, ritualistic presence without relying on heavy blackletter density.
The design appears intended to deliver a horror-leaning, hand-cut calligraphic voice by combining an italic, condensed skeleton with aggressive tapers, hooks, and slashed terminals. It prioritizes mood and stylistic impact over neutral readability, aiming to give headlines a sharp, unsettling edge.
The font maintains a consistent slanted axis and narrow set width, but introduces deliberate irregularities in terminals and hooks that keep the texture lively. In text settings, the spiky details become the dominant character, so spacing and line length will strongly affect readability.
