A jagged, display-oriented face with narrow, upright letterforms and sharp, tapered terminals. Strokes show a rough, chiseled edge quality with irregular contours that create toothy notches and occasional spike-like protrusions, while counters stay relatively open for the style. Width and silhouette vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, giving the alphabet a restless rhythm; diagonals and joins often pinch into pointed intersections. Numerals match the same distressed, cut-out look, with uneven curves and abrupt angles rather than smooth geometry.
Well-suited to short, high-impact settings such as horror and Halloween posters, film or podcast titles, game title screens, and themed packaging or venue signage. It can also work for logos and headers where a distressed, threatening voice is needed, especially when set large with generous tracking.
The overall tone feels ominous and theatrical, like carved lettering from a haunted attraction sign or a grim storybook title. Its aggressive points and distressed texture suggest danger and suspense, while the handmade irregularity adds a frantic, unsettling energy.
The design appears intended to evoke a spooky, hand-cut or carved aesthetic through sharp tapering, irregular outlines, and exaggerated pointed terminals. By prioritizing silhouette drama and texture over smooth regularity, it aims to deliver immediate atmosphere and genre signaling in display typography.
In running text, the strong texture can dominate the page, with serrated edges and tight sidebearings producing a dense, high-impact color. The design reads best when given breathing room; larger sizes help preserve interior details and keep jagged terminals from clumping.
