A condensed, upright serif with tall proportions and a lightly hand-wrought, inked texture. Strokes show moderate contrast with softened transitions, and the serifs are small, often bracketed or subtly flared, giving many terminals a tapered, slightly hooked finish. Counters are relatively tight and verticals dominate, producing a narrow, columnar rhythm; width varies noticeably across letters, reinforcing an irregular, display-oriented cadence. Several forms include quirky details—pinched joins, asymmetric curves, and occasional spur-like endings—that read as intentional rather than purely geometric.
Best suited to display settings where its condensed shapes and quirky serif details can be appreciated—posters, book covers, editorial headlines, packaging, and themed titles. It can work for short bursts of text or pull quotes, but its dense rhythm and decorative terminals are most effective at larger sizes with comfortable tracking.
The overall tone feels Victorian and slightly spooky, with a playful, storybook eccentricity. Its narrow silhouettes and quirky terminals suggest a handcrafted poster aesthetic—more theatrical than formal—suited to evocative, characterful typography rather than quiet neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, attention-grabbing serif with a vintage, slightly macabre theatrical flavor. Its purpose seems to be creating distinctive headline texture through narrow proportions, moderate contrast, and deliberately irregular, characterful detailing.
In text, the condensed spacing and lively terminals create a distinctive texture that can become busy at smaller sizes, especially where tight counters and sharp joins cluster. The capitals carry much of the personality through varied widths and idiosyncratic curves, while the lowercase maintains the same narrow, vertical emphasis for a consistent, stylized voice.
