A rough, distressed serif with heavily eroded contours and uneven stroke terminals that feel torn or bitten away. The letterforms keep a broadly traditional serif skeleton, but the outlines are aggressively irregular, producing a textured edge and a blotchy, ink-worn silhouette. Stems and serifs vary subtly from glyph to glyph, with small nicks, bulges, and notches creating a handmade rhythm. Counters remain generally open for readability, while the figures and caps show the same rugged perimeter treatment for a consistent, gritty texture.
Well-suited to horror and thriller titles, Halloween promotions, haunted-attraction materials, and game or film poster typography where an aged, unsettling texture is desirable. It can also work for short bursts of display copy on book covers, album art, and packaging that aims for an antique or occult flavor, especially at larger sizes.
The overall tone is ominous and antique, like aged print pulled from a weathered poster or a cursed book page. Its distressed edges and uneven inking suggest decay and unease, giving headlines a haunted, ritualistic character without relying on extreme distortion.
The design appears intended to merge a classic serif foundation with a deliberately degraded, ink-worn finish to evoke age, damage, and menace. Its consistent rough perimeter across letters and numerals suggests a controlled distress effect aimed at dramatic display settings rather than clean, long-form reading.
Spacing appears moderately open in the sample text, helping the rough edges avoid clumping at larger sizes. The texture is visually busy, so the face reads best when given enough size and contrast against the background, where the torn outline can be appreciated.
