A heavy, slanted display face with chunky, low-contrast strokes and sharply cut, irregular terminals. The outlines feel hand-shaped: corners are nicked, wedges and notches appear at joins, and curves are slightly lumpy rather than geometric. Proportions vary from glyph to glyph, giving the alphabet a lively, uneven rhythm; counters are generally open and the forms stay readable despite the rough edges. Numerals match the same cutout logic, with exaggerated curves and tapered, blade-like ends.
Best suited for headlines and short bursts of text where the jagged silhouette can read clearly—movie and event posters, game title screens, Halloween branding, and humorous horror packaging. In paragraphs, it remains legible at large sizes but its aggressive texture suggests using it sparingly for emphasis rather than continuous body copy.
The overall tone is spooky without leaning into gooey drips—more like carved jack-o’-lantern edges, torn paper, or a horror-comedy poster. It reads energetic and mischievous, with a B-movie flair that feels intentionally unruly rather than distressed from wear.
The design appears intended to deliver an instantly recognizable spooky display voice through carved, blade-like terminals and purposely irregular letterforms, balancing menace with a playful, campy energy. It prioritizes silhouette and texture over typographic neutrality, aiming for strong impact in themed settings.
The italic slant and variable glyph widths create a strong forward motion, especially in longer lines. Spiky terminals on letters like S, Z, and W add bite, while rounded characters (O, Q, 8) keep the texture from becoming overly harsh. The sample text shows consistent color at larger sizes, with the rough contour becoming a defining feature rather than noise.
