Spooky Fyzi 2 is a very bold, very narrow, very high contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Sharp Grotesk Latin' and 'Sharp Grotesk Paneuropean' by Monotype and 'PG Gothique' by Paulo Goode (names referenced only for comparison).

This font uses tightly condensed, vertically stretched letterforms with heavy stems and a rough, eroded edge treatment. Strokes look brushy and worn, with uneven interior counters and occasional nicks that create a dry-ink, scraped texture. Curves are compact and upright, and many terminals end in blunt, slightly torn-looking edges rather than clean cuts. The overall rhythm is narrow and punchy, with consistent texture across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited for short, high-impact text such as titles, posters, event flyers, cover art, and branding where an eerie, distressed voice is desired. It works well for headers, logos, and packaging callouts that need to feel gritty and handmade, rather than for long-form reading.
The distressed silhouette and scraped-black texture give it an ominous, gritty tone reminiscent of horror posters and battered signage. It feels tense and theatrical, reading as unsettling rather than playful, with a DIY intensity that suggests something hand-printed, weathered, or corrupted.
The design appears intended to combine a condensed display structure with a deliberately worn, ink-scraped finish to evoke tension and unease. Its consistent distressing and sturdy silhouettes prioritize atmosphere and immediacy, aiming for bold title readability with a horror-leaning edge.
In the sample text, the heavy texture can visually fill in at smaller sizes, especially in rounded letters where the counters tighten. The font’s strong verticality makes it effective in stacked lines and compact layouts, but it benefits from generous tracking and line spacing when used in longer phrases.
