A jagged, calligraphic display face with sharp, tapered terminals and uneven stroke edges that feel brush-drawn or knife-cut. Letterforms lean with an italic slant and show moderate thick–thin modulation, with frequent wedge-like joins and hooked finials. Curves are often slightly flattened or kinked, and counters can be tight and irregular, creating a restless rhythm. Lowercase appears compact with a short x-height, while capitals are more expansive and decorative, giving the overall texture a dramatic, varied silhouette.
Well-suited for horror and dark-fantasy titling, Halloween promotions, game or film branding, and poster headlines where atmosphere matters more than neutrality. It also works for short logotypes, chapter openers, or pull quotes when set large enough to preserve the sharp details.
The font projects an ominous, arcane tone—part medieval manuscript, part horror title card. Its spurs, hooks, and scratchy contours suggest cursed artifacts, dark fantasy, and supernatural storytelling rather than polite readability.
The design appears intended to emulate an expressive, hand-rendered blackletter-inspired script with exaggerated spikes and hooked terminals, prioritizing dramatic texture and an unsettling voice for themed display typography.
At text sizes the spiky terminals and irregular edges create a lively, noisy texture; it reads best when given breathing room and used in short bursts. Numerals follow the same carved/brushy logic, with angular strokes and distinctive flicked endings that keep them consistent with the letters.
