A jagged brush-style italic with narrow, slightly irregular proportions and a lively baseline. Strokes show medium contrast from pressure-like thick–thin modulation, with frequent sharp terminals, hooked ends, and occasional thorny protrusions. Curves are imperfect and textured, as if drawn with a dry brush or inked marker, producing small notches and uneven edges. Counters stay fairly open despite the narrowness, and overall letter widths vary noticeably, reinforcing an organic, hand-rendered rhythm.
Best suited to short display lines where its texture and sharp terminals can read clearly: horror and thriller titling, Halloween campaigns, haunted-event materials, game titles and UI headers, and album/film poster typography. It can also add an eerie accent to packaging or social graphics when used sparingly with a calmer companion text face.
The letterforms read tense and uncanny, mixing energetic handwritten motion with blade-like flicks and scratchy finishes. Its rough texture and pointed terminals evoke horror and occult cues—more suspenseful than playful—while still feeling human and gestural rather than mechanical.
The design appears intended to simulate quick, pressure-driven brush lettering with intentionally rough edges and spiked terminals, aiming for a handcrafted fright aesthetic. Irregular widths and energetic slant prioritize mood and impact over quiet neutrality, creating a distinctive voice for themed display typography.
Uppercase forms carry the strongest dramatic spikes (notably in diagonals and cross-strokes), while lowercase remains compact with a relatively short x-height and quick, calligraphic joins. Numerals follow the same brush logic, with uneven curves and tapered entry/exit strokes that keep the set visually cohesive in display settings.
