A heavy display face built from chunky, compact letterforms with irregular, softened outlines and pronounced drip terminals. Strokes read as dense ink or paint, with uneven edges, occasional nicks, and bulbous joins that create a handmade, distressed silhouette. Counters are small and sometimes partially pinched by the organic shaping, while verticals tend to feel weighty and dominant. Overall rhythm is lively and slightly uneven, with varying drip lengths and edge erosion adding texture from glyph to glyph.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as horror posters, Halloween promotions, event flyers, streaming thumbnails, and title cards. It also works well for game UI headings, album/mixtape covers, and merch graphics where a drippy, distressed look is central to the concept.
The type carries a classic scare-movie tone—wet, inky, and slightly grotesque—evoking slime, blood drips, or paint runoffs. Its roughness adds a gritty, underground attitude, while the rounded blobs keep it readable enough to feel more “fun horror” than purely brutal.
The design appears intended to deliver immediate genre signaling through dripping terminals and eroded contours, mimicking wet ink or oozing material. It prioritizes mood and silhouette over typographic neutrality, aiming for bold display readability with a strongly themed texture.
The dripping detail is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, creating strong thematic cohesion. At smaller sizes the interior details and drips can visually fill in, so it reads best when given room and contrast.
