A condensed, heavy display face built from solid black strokes with irregular, tapering terminals that pull downward into drip-like points. Edges are rough and uneven, with occasional notches and bite marks that create a distressed silhouette. The rhythm is compact and vertical, while widths vary by glyph, giving the set an unstable, hand-formed feel. Counters tend to be small and sometimes partly occluded by drips, and punctuation-like details (such as dots) appear as droplet forms.
Best suited to short, prominent text where the dripping silhouette can be appreciated—titles, posters, headers, cover art, and event branding. It works especially well on high-contrast backgrounds and in applications that benefit from a deliberately grimy, suspenseful atmosphere.
The overall tone is ominous and theatrical, evoking viscous ink, slime, or melting paint. Its roughened contours and dangling terminals suggest decay and suspense, reading as intentionally unsettling rather than refined. The style leans toward classic genre horror with a playful, high-impact edge.
The design appears intended as a themed display font that prioritizes mood and texture over neutrality, using dripping terminals and distressed contours to deliver immediate genre signaling. Its condensed vertical structure supports punchy headlines while the irregular details add narrative character.
At larger sizes the drip details read clearly and add texture; at smaller sizes the distressed edges and tight counters can reduce clarity. The strongest visual signature comes from the repeated downward pull in terminals, which creates a consistent "melting" baseline effect across both uppercase and lowercase.
