A jagged, hand-drawn display face built from sharp wedges and ragged strokes with frequent needle-like terminals. Stems are irregular in thickness with medium contrast, and many joins are abrupt, creating broken-looking contours and notched edges. Counters tend to be small and angular, and several forms lean on pointed diagonals and hooked arms for structure. Spacing and widths feel intentionally uneven, reinforcing a raw, scratchy texture in words and lines of text.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings where atmosphere matters more than prolonged readability—titles, logos, poster headlines, and punchy callouts for horror, thriller, or dark-fantasy themes. It can also work for packaging, streaming thumbnails, or in-game UI accents when used sparingly at larger sizes.
The letterforms project an ominous, high-tension tone—more curse-mark and claw-scratch than conventional writing. Its spiked silhouettes and uneasy rhythm suggest danger, dread, and supernatural theatrics, making the overall voice feel aggressive and unsettling.
The design appears intended to mimic scratchy, improvised lettering with sharpened terminals and uneven construction, prioritizing mood and immediacy over refinement. Its consistent spikiness across caps, lowercase, and figures suggests a unified horror-display toolkit for dramatic, attention-grabbing typography.
In running text the texture becomes dense and noisy, with dramatic silhouettes on capitals and distinctive, knife-edged ascenders/descenders on several lowercase letters. Numerals match the same carved, angular logic, maintaining the set’s rough, distressed continuity.
