A heavy, inked display face built from compact, mostly upright letterforms with irregular, organic silhouettes. Strokes appear as thick, uneven blobs with ragged edges and frequent downward drips that extend below the baseline, creating a wet-paint/ooze effect. Counters are small and often asymmetrical, while terminals end in torn-looking nubs or taper into short splatters. Overall spacing feels tight and compressed, and width varies noticeably from glyph to glyph, emphasizing a handmade, distressed rhythm.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as horror-themed posters, Halloween promotions, haunted house branding, podcast or video title cards, and punchy merchandise graphics. It works especially well for large headlines where the drips and distressed edges can be appreciated and used as a dominant visual motif.
The font projects a classic horror mood with a pulpy, B-movie sensibility—equal parts threatening and campy. Its drips and rough texture suggest slime, blood, or melted ink, giving headlines an immediate shock-and-gross-out character while keeping a playful, comic edge.
The design appears intended to mimic thick, freshly applied paint or ink that has begun to run, using exaggerated drips and uneven contours to deliver an immediate “oozing” effect. Its compact forms and aggressive texture prioritize atmosphere and recognizability over sustained body-text readability.
The dripping descenders create a strong baseline texture that becomes denser in longer lines of text. At smaller sizes the interior detail and rough edges can visually fill in, so the design reads most clearly when given room and high contrast against the background.
