A jagged, hand-inked display face built from angular strokes and sharp, faceted curves. Letterforms are constructed with irregular, slightly wobbly lines and abrupt terminals that feel scraped or notched, creating an intentionally uneven rhythm. Counters are often narrow and wedge-like, with occasional diamond-shaped forms (notably the O/0), and stroke joins look sketchy rather than mechanically consistent. Overall spacing and widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, reinforcing the handmade, one-off character.
Best suited for short-form display use such as posters, game and film titles, Halloween or horror promotions, fantasy-themed packaging, and editorial pull quotes where texture is desirable. It can also work for logos or wordmarks that benefit from a hand-drawn, irregular edge, but is less appropriate for small sizes or long passages due to its busy, scratchy detailing.
The font conveys a quirky, slightly ominous mood—like scribbled signage for a fantasy tavern, haunted attraction, or offbeat zine. Its rough edges and spiky contours read as energetic and mischievous, balancing playful eccentricity with a hint of dark storytelling.
The design appears intended to mimic improvised, hand-rendered lettering with deliberately irregular construction—prioritizing texture, character, and novelty over typographic smoothness. The consistent use of sharp angles and notched terminals suggests a goal of creating a distinctive, wacky voice that feels both rustic and theatrical.
In running text the texture becomes prominent, with the irregular stroke edges and sharp terminals creating a busy, high-personality color. The all-caps set feels especially emblematic, while lowercase retains the same angular logic with a more casual, scribbled cadence; numerals follow the same faceted, hand-drawn construction.
