A tall, condensed display face with sharp, tapering terminals and a deliberately irregular, hand-cut silhouette. Strokes show medium contrast with intermittent swelling and thinning, and edges are roughened with small notches that create a chiseled, torn-ink effect. Counters tend to be narrow and vertical, with pointed joins and occasional hooked spurs that give letters a thorny profile. The rhythm is tight and vertical, while widths vary from glyph to glyph, reinforcing an intentionally unsettled texture in lines of text.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as horror and mystery titles, posters, album artwork, game title screens, and event branding where an ominous mood is desired. It can work for pull quotes and short headers, but the rough contouring and tight, vertical rhythm make it less comfortable for long passages or small-size body text.
The overall tone is ominous and theatrical, evoking haunted signage, ritual ephemera, and storybook darkness. Its spurs and jagged terminals suggest danger and unease, while the tall proportions and blackletter-leaning posture add a historic, occult flavor.
The design appears intended to fuse condensed display proportions with a distressed, spike-and-hook gesture to create instant atmosphere. It prioritizes mood and texture over neutrality, aiming for dramatic, readable letterforms that still feel handmade and unsettling.
Uppercase forms read as more formal and emblematic, while the lowercase introduces more quirky, wiry shapes; together they create a lively, distressed pattern. Numerals match the same spiked, carved character and maintain legibility at display sizes, though the irregular contours will visually intensify in dense setting.
