A hand-drawn display face with slim, slightly uneven strokes and a consistent upright stance. Letterforms are built from simple skeletons that are intentionally distorted with wobbly curves, irregular terminals, and small spur-like nicks that create a scratchy outline. Proportions vary from glyph to glyph, with occasional exaggerated stems and off-center bowls that add a jittery rhythm. Counters stay open and readable at larger sizes, while the irregular edges and varying widths give the texture its character.
Best suited to short bursts of text—posters, headlines, covers, packaging callouts, and playful branding where a handmade, eccentric voice is desired. It can work well for horror-comedy or Halloween-themed material, as well as games or events that benefit from a lightly unsettling, humorous texture. For longer passages, the irregular detailing is likely most effective when used sparingly and at comfortable display sizes.
The overall tone is mischievous and offbeat, like inked lettering made for a playful scare or a tongue-in-cheek oddity. Its rough, spurred contours suggest a slightly creepy, handmade energy without becoming fully chaotic, making it feel more whimsical than aggressive.
The design appears intended to mimic quick ink or marker lettering while amplifying imperfections into a deliberate decorative motif. By pairing simple, readable structures with scratchy edges and inconsistent proportions, it aims to deliver a distinctive, one-off personality for attention-grabbing display typography.
The uppercase and lowercase share the same quirky construction, with noticeable individuality between letters that reads as deliberately imperfect. Numerals match the same scratchy terminal treatment, helping the set feel cohesive as a decorative system.
