A condensed, hand-rendered print style with tall proportions and a slightly jittery baseline. Strokes show visible drag and taper, with rough, ragged edges and occasional ink-like blobs that create a distressed texture. Letterforms are mostly upright and narrow, mixing straight stems with tight curves and irregular joins, producing an uneven but intentional rhythm. Counters tend to be small and compressed, and terminals often end in sharp, brushy points.
Best suited to headlines and short bursts of text where texture and mood are the priority—such as horror/thriller titles, event posters, album artwork, and packaging accents. It can work for punchy subheads, but the condensed proportions and distressed edges make it less ideal for long-form reading or very small sizes.
The overall tone is tense and dramatic, evoking horror and occult signage, DIY posters, and eerie title cards. Its scratchy texture and narrow silhouettes add urgency and a slightly unsettling character, while still keeping words readable at display sizes.
The design appears intended to mimic quickly inked or brushed lettering, preserving imperfections and edge breakup to create a gritty, theatrical atmosphere. Its narrow build and tall x-height suggest an aim for high impact in limited space while maintaining recognizable letter shapes.
Capitals carry a strong vertical emphasis and feel more rigid, while lowercase introduces more quirky, organic variation. The distressed detailing is consistent enough to feel like a cohesive style, but irregularities in stroke width and terminal finish remain prominent, giving a handmade authenticity.
