A heavy, chunky display face built from irregular, faceted strokes that read like cut paper or chipped stone. The outlines are intentionally uneven, with sharp corners, abrupt notches, and wedge-like terminals that create a broken, hand-cut rhythm. Counters are small and angular, curves are reduced to polygonal bends, and widths fluctuate noticeably from glyph to glyph, giving the alphabet a lively, off-kilter texture while still keeping a clear silhouette.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, title cards, game/stream graphics, event flyers, and seasonal or horror-themed promotions. It performs well when used large, with generous line spacing, where the jagged details and shifting widths can be appreciated without compromising legibility.
The overall tone is mischievous and slightly ominous—more fun-house than formal—evoking horror-comedy, Halloween, and theatrical signage. Its jittery geometry and exaggerated black mass feel energetic and noisy, with a handmade unpredictability that reads as playful rather than polished.
This design appears intended as a characterful display font that prioritizes personality and texture over typographic neutrality. By combining exaggerated weight with irregular, chiseled contours, it aims to deliver instant atmosphere for comedic-spooky or chaotic, attention-grabbing branding.
Spacing appears intentionally irregular, and the dense letterforms create strong dark “blobs” in text, which amplifies impact but can reduce clarity at smaller sizes. The numerals and capitals carry the same chipped, angular construction, helping headlines keep a consistent, rugged texture across mixed content.
