A tall, condensed handwritten print with slightly irregular outlines and a dry-brush feel. Strokes show noticeable tapering and occasional pointed terminals, giving letters a carved, scratchy silhouette rather than smooth monoline geometry. Curves are simplified and somewhat angular, counters are narrow, and spacing feels lively with small variations in widths and alignment that reinforce the hand-drawn construction. Capitals are especially vertical and narrow, while lowercase keeps a compact body with ascenders that read long and spiky.
Best suited to display typography where the handmade texture and sharp, condensed silhouette can carry mood—titles, posters, seasonal/Halloween graphics, game or film artwork, and themed packaging. It can also work for short pull quotes or labels, but its narrow proportions and lively stroke irregularity are less ideal for long-form reading at small sizes.
The overall tone is eerie yet playful, evoking handmade signage, spooky story titles, and theatrical lettering. Its narrow, sharp forms and uneven stroke energy create a tense, expressive rhythm without becoming fully chaotic, making it feel mischievous and slightly gothic.
The design appears intended to deliver a handcrafted, spooky-display voice using tall proportions, tapered strokes, and slightly rough edges. It prioritizes character and atmosphere over strict uniformity, offering a controlled hand-drawn look that remains legible while feeling expressive.
The character set shows consistent vertical emphasis across both cases, with distinctive pointed terminals on several letters and numerals. The texture suggests a pen or brush lifted and pressed through strokes, producing small edge wobble and tapered starts/finishes that will read more prominently at display sizes.
