A jagged, brush-like display face with sharply tapered terminals and uneven stroke edges that feel torn or carved. Letterforms lean forward with a lively, irregular rhythm, mixing thick wedges with thin, needle-like connections for pronounced contrast. Proportions vary from glyph to glyph, with compact counters and occasional spurs and hooks that create a scratchy silhouette. Numerals and capitals carry the same edgy, hand-made texture, prioritizing impact over smooth geometry.
Best suited for headlines and short bursts of copy in horror and dark-fantasy contexts—posters, game title screens, streaming thumbnails, and event graphics. It also works well for album art and promotional lockups where a sharp, menacing texture is desirable. Use generous sizes and spacing to preserve letter recognition while keeping the aggressive edge.
The overall tone is dark and confrontational, with a frantic hand-rendered energy that reads as sinister and volatile. Its spiky contours and abrupt cuts evoke danger and supernatural tension, giving text a cinematic horror presence. Even in longer lines, the texture feels restless and intense rather than calm or refined.
This font appears designed to mimic fast, forceful strokes with torn edges and dagger-like terminals, aiming for immediate shock value and a distinctly ominous atmosphere. The irregular rhythm and contrast prioritize expressive texture and silhouette over neutral readability, making it a purpose-built display choice for spooky, high-drama branding.
The texture is consistent across the set, with deliberately imperfect edges and pointed terminals that produce strong silhouettes at larger sizes. Tight interior spaces and abrupt joins can reduce clarity at small sizes, but they amplify the gritty character in headlines. The forward slant and varying widths add momentum, making lines feel hurried and dramatic.
