A distressed display face built from angular, thorn-like strokes and irregular, torn edges. Letterforms show strong thick–thin contrast with abrupt tapers, hooky terminals, and occasional interior notches that make counters feel eaten away. The rhythm is uneven by design, with inconsistent stroke widths and rough contours that mimic scratchy ink or carved marks, while remaining mostly upright and legible at display sizes.
Best suited for headlines and short bursts of text in horror, dark fantasy, and seasonal Halloween graphics. It works well on posters, packaging, game screens, and streaming/album artwork where a sharp, distressed texture can read clearly at larger sizes. Pair with a clean sans or simple serif for supporting text to keep layouts readable.
The font projects an unsettling, supernatural tone—more curse-book and midnight ritual than playful novelty. Its sharp silhouettes and ragged texture create tension and urgency, lending a grim, ominous voice to short phrases and titles.
The design appears intended to evoke hand-scratched, sinister lettering with a deliberately degraded surface, prioritizing mood and silhouette over smooth refinement. Its high-contrast strokes and spiky terminals aim to deliver immediate genre signaling for spooky and occult-leaning themes.
Uppercase and lowercase share the same distressed vocabulary, with some glyphs leaning toward calligraphic, rune-like constructions. Numerals follow the same jagged treatment, keeping a cohesive texture across alphanumerics. The roughness is integral to the design, so fine details may visually fill in at smaller sizes or on low-resolution output.
