A scratchy, hand-drawn display face with sharp, blade-like terminals and frequent tapering that suggests quick brush or pen strokes. Forms are narrow and irregular, with a lively baseline and uneven stroke endings that create a prickly silhouette. Curves and bowls are often slightly pinched or asymmetrical, while diagonals and joins form pointed interior angles; counters stay open enough for legibility but maintain a rough, carved feel. The numerals and lowercase echo the same thin-to-thicker rhythm and exaggerated tapers, keeping the set visually cohesive.
Best suited for display work where atmosphere matters more than neutrality: horror or dark-fantasy titles, Halloween/event promotion, game menus and chapter cards, album/playlist art, and poster or packaging headlines. It also works well for short taglines or pull quotes when you want an intentionally hand-rendered, uncanny texture.
The overall tone feels ominous and folkloric, like lettering for spells, cursed manuscripts, or midnight signage. Its spines and twitchy stroke energy introduce tension and drama, giving text an unsettling, theatrical presence without becoming fully illegible.
The design appears intended to evoke handmade, story-driven fright through spiky tapers and irregular calligraphic construction, delivering a dramatic texture that immediately signals a supernatural or suspenseful theme.
In running text, the irregular widths and expressive terminals create a distinct texture that reads best at larger sizes. Capitals carry the most theatrical spikes, while the lowercase and numerals maintain the same nervous, inked character for consistent branding across headlines and short phrases.
