A condensed display face with heavy, inked strokes and sharply tapered terminals. The outlines are intentionally irregular, with ragged edges, small spikes, and occasional drip-like protrusions that make the contours feel eroded and wet. Counters tend to be tight and angular, and the overall rhythm is jagged rather than smooth, with uneven texture that reads like distressed blackletter-inspired forms simplified into blocky silhouettes. Spacing appears compact, amplifying a dense, poster-ready color on the line.
Best suited to headlines, title cards, and short callouts where an eerie, textured voice is needed—such as Halloween promotions, haunted attraction signage, horror game screens, or genre packaging. It can also work for logos or wordmarks in dark-themed projects, especially when paired with a simpler supporting text face.
The font projects a haunted, macabre tone—equal parts horror prop and pulpy Halloween theatrics. Its scratchy spikes and drips suggest darkness, decay, and a playful menace, making it feel at home in supernatural or monster-themed settings.
The design appears aimed at delivering immediate horror flavor through distressed, dripping contours and sharp, tapered endings, while keeping letterforms recognizable in a tightly condensed footprint. It prioritizes atmosphere and impact over neutrality and continuous reading comfort.
The distressed detailing is prominent even at larger sizes, so the face reads best when given room to breathe and when used where rough texture is desirable. The condensed proportions and tight internal spaces can make long passages feel busy, but they strengthen impact for short bursts of text.
