A heavy display face built from dense, ink-blot silhouettes with strongly irregular contours. Strokes appear carved out of a single dark mass rather than drawn with consistent pen logic, producing chunky terminals and uneven joins. Many glyphs feature downward drips and torn edges, with occasional internal notches and small counters that read like eaten-away holes. Spacing and sidebearings feel intentionally inconsistent, giving the line a lurching, handmade rhythm while maintaining clear, upright letterforms.
Works best for short, high-impact settings such as Halloween promotions, haunted attraction signage, horror-film style title cards, and game or stream overlays. It also suits merchandise and sticker-style graphics where the dripping silhouette can read as a bold shape from a distance.
The overall tone is ominous and mischievous—classic haunted-house signage with a B-movie edge. The dripping edges and rough texture suggest slime, decay, and nighttime suspense, while the rounded, bulbous forms keep it playful enough for seasonal or tongue-in-cheek horror.
The design appears intended to deliver immediate spooky recognition through exaggerated weight, distressed edges, and drip-like terminals, prioritizing atmosphere and texture over neutral readability. Its consistent “melting” motif across letters and numerals suggests a purpose-built display font for themed headlines and branding moments.
At text sizes the rugged perimeter becomes a dominant texture, and small counters (especially in letters like a, e, g, and numbers like 8) can close up, pushing it toward headline use. The figures and capitals share the same drippy silhouette language, helping mixed-case and numeric-heavy titles feel cohesive.
