A heavy display face with chunky, compact letterforms carved by irregular, torn-looking edges. Strokes appear brushy and distressed, with sharp spikes and bite-like notches interrupting otherwise blocky silhouettes. Counters are small and uneven, and curves are lumpy rather than smooth, creating a rough rhythm across the alphabet. Lowercase and numerals follow the same rugged construction, keeping a consistent “shredded” perimeter and dense color in text lines.
Best suited to short display settings where texture and silhouette do the work—posters, title cards, packaging accents, and event graphics with dark or spooky themes. It performs particularly well at larger sizes for headlines, logos, and punchy callouts, where the ragged edges remain clearly legible and add atmosphere.
The overall tone is ominous and gritty, suggesting suspense and the uncanny rather than refinement. Its jagged perimeter reads like claw marks, ripped paper, or decayed ink, lending a pulpy horror energy that feels theatrical and attention-seeking. The texture adds nervous movement and a handmade roughness that heightens tension.
Likely designed to deliver instant genre signaling through distressed, spiky contours and dense, high-impact shapes. The goal appears to be a bold headline face that feels handmade and unsettling, prioritizing mood and texture over clean, neutral readability.
The distressed contouring is strong enough that fine details can close up in smaller sizes, especially in tight counters and interior joins. Spacing and shapes feel intentionally irregular, which enhances the organic, unpolished effect and helps large headlines feel more animated than static.
