A jagged, angular display face built from sharp wedge strokes and broken, faceted terminals. Letterforms feel hand-cut rather than mechanically drawn, with irregular stroke endings, occasional spur-like protrusions, and uneven internal counters that create a restless rhythm. The silhouette is consistently serrated across caps, lowercase, and numerals, while keeping enough structure for readable word shapes. Spacing and widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, reinforcing a rough, animated texture in lines of text.
Best suited for short, high-impact text such as horror and thriller titles, Halloween promotions, event posters, and cinematic or game-related graphics where atmosphere matters. It can also work for logos or merch wordmarks when a sharp, unsettling edge is desired; for longer passages, larger sizes and generous leading help preserve clarity.
The overall tone is ominous and theatrical, mixing gothic hand-lettering cues with a frantic, cut-paper edge. Its spikes and hooked terminals suggest danger, ritual, and supernatural storytelling rather than neutrality. In paragraphs it reads as intentionally unruly, projecting tension and a slightly mischievous, horror-comic attitude.
The design appears intended to deliver immediate genre signaling through spiked terminals and irregular, hand-hewn geometry—creating a distressed, supernatural display voice that feels energetic and slightly chaotic while remaining legible.
Capitals present strong, emblematic silhouettes with pointed apexes and notched corners, while the lowercase keeps the same sharp language without becoming overly ornate. Numerals follow the same faceted construction, with angular bowls and knife-like diagonals that maintain the font’s aggressive texture.
