A slanted, brush-written display face with sharp, tapered terminals and visibly irregular stroke edges. Letterforms show high contrast between thick downstrokes and thin hairline connectors, with frequent flicks and pointed spurs that give the outlines a slightly ragged, ink-on-paper texture. Proportions are compact with a relatively low x-height, while capitals feel tall and lively; widths vary from narrow to more open shapes, creating a restless rhythm across words. Numerals follow the same calligraphic logic, with angular turns and tapered ends that keep the set visually consistent.
Works best as a display font for headlines, short phrases, and atmospheric branding where texture and menace are desirable—posters, film/game titles, event promos, and cover art. It can also serve as an accent for pull quotes or packaging, paired with a calmer text face for readability.
The overall tone is unsettling and theatrical—like hurried handwriting for a warning label, occult note, or horror title card. Its sharp hooks and scratchy edges suggest tension and motion, balancing playful handmade energy with a darker, ominous feel.
Designed to mimic expressive brush calligraphy with controlled chaos: sharp, tapering strokes and irregular edges are used to evoke suspense and a handcrafted, supernatural mood while keeping letterforms recognizable.
Spacing appears intentionally uneven in a natural handwriting way, and the slant plus pointed joins can create dramatic word shapes at larger sizes. Thin hairlines and fine terminals add bite but may soften or break up at very small sizes or on low-resolution outputs.
