A rough, brush-drawn display face with heavy, inky strokes and visibly irregular contours. Letterforms show organic tapering, blunted terminals, and occasional spur-like flicks that create a jagged, unsettled rhythm. Counters are uneven and slightly pinched, and widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, reinforcing a handmade, painted look rather than a geometric construction. The texture reads as wet ink or a dry brush, with small wobble and edge noise throughout.
Best suited for short headlines and display applications where texture and mood are more important than extended readability—such as Halloween promotions, horror or mystery posters, haunted attraction branding, and game or streaming title treatments. It also works well for labels and packaging that want a handmade occult vibe, especially when given generous tracking and size.
The overall tone is eerie and theatrical, evoking haunted signage, spellbook lettering, and classic horror title cards. Its imperfect, ink-smeared presence feels more playful-creepy than grim, balancing menace with a hand-crafted, storybook charm.
The design appears intended to mimic expressive hand lettering made with a loaded brush, using irregular edges and tapered spikes to inject tension and unease. Its consistent roughness across capitals, lowercase, and figures suggests a deliberate focus on atmospheric impact and characterful texture.
In text settings the irregular stroke endings and uneven spacing create a lively, jittery line, with strong black mass that can close up in smaller sizes. Numerals match the same brushy, distorted construction, maintaining consistency across the set.
