A chunky, block-based display face built from heavy rectangular bodies topped with sharp, crown-like notches. Each glyph reads as a solid slab with irregular, carved-looking counters and internal cut-outs that create a hollowed, stencil-like effect. Strokes are largely monoline in feel, but the interior openings vary in shape and placement, producing a handmade rhythm and lively texture. The overall silhouette is tall and compact per character, with uneven widths and intentionally imperfect inner shapes that keep the forms animated even in repeated text.
Best suited for short display settings where texture and personality are desirable: posters, headlines, event flyers, album or mixtape artwork, and bold packaging callouts. It will be most effective at medium-to-large sizes where the internal cut-outs remain clearly legible and contribute to the intended visual bite.
The angular crowns and jagged inner cut-outs give the font a mischievous, Halloween-adjacent energy—more playful than threatening. Its irregular hollows and bouncy spacing add a cartoonish, DIY personality that feels vintage and novelty-driven.
The design appears intended to combine a heavy block foundation with decorative, hollowed internal shapes to create immediate impact and a distinctive themed voice. The crowned tops and irregular counters suggest a deliberate nod to novelty lettering and playful horror aesthetics while keeping letterforms readable in all-caps and mixed-case settings.
In text, the repeating crowned tops create a strong horizontal pattern, while the unpredictable counters help distinguish similar letters. The numerals match the same carved-block construction, maintaining a consistent display texture across mixed alphanumerics.
