A distressed, hand-drawn roman with irregular stroke edges and slightly wobbly geometry that mimics ink bleed or worn stamping. Strokes are slender but uneven in density, with ragged contours, occasional nicks, and subtle bulges that keep counters and bowls imperfectly round. Terminals tend to be blunt and frayed rather than cleanly cut, and curves often show a lightly trembling outline. Spacing is generally straightforward but the varying glyph widths and inconsistent edge texture create a restless rhythm across words.
Works best for display applications where texture is part of the message: horror or thriller titles, event posters, Halloween and haunted-attraction promotions, game menus, and cover typography. It can also serve as a secondary accent face for labels, pull quotes, or short bursts of copy where a weathered, ominous voice is desired.
The overall tone feels unsettling and aged, like text pulled from a found document, a scuffed label, or a hastily lettered warning. Its imperfect, scratchy perimeter reads as gritty and ominous without relying on extreme spikes or overt gimmicks, making it quietly spooky rather than cartoonish.
The design appears intended to simulate imperfect, real-world lettering—like inked or stamped characters that have degraded over time—while preserving familiar proportions for quick recognition. The controlled irregularity suggests a deliberate balance between legibility and atmosphere, aimed at adding unease and grit to headings and branding moments.
Uppercase forms stay fairly simple and readable, while lowercase shapes introduce more personality through uneven bowls and slightly quirky joins. Numerals match the same distressed treatment, maintaining the worn, analog texture consistently across the set.
