This typeface uses sharply irregular, brush-like strokes with ragged edges and frequent thorny spur terminals. Letterforms are mostly upright with a hand-drawn, uneven rhythm, showing variable stroke swelling and pinched joins that create a distressed silhouette. Counters tend to be small and angular, and many curves are faceted into pointed forms, giving the set a consistently rough, torn-ink look across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
It works best for short, high-impact display settings such as horror posters, haunted event promotions, game titles, album/film titling, and packaging or branding that needs an eerie edge. Use at larger sizes to preserve the thorny detail and distressed contours, and pair with a simple companion face for body text.
The overall tone feels sinister and unsettled, with aggressive spikes and worn contours that suggest decay, danger, and supernatural tension. Its scratchy texture and uneven cadence evoke horror and dark fantasy aesthetics rather than polished or friendly display typography.
The design appears intended to deliver an immediate horror-flavored impact through jagged brushwork, sharp terminals, and a deliberately distressed texture. Its irregular outlines and spiky modulation prioritize atmosphere and character over neutrality, aiming to make headlines feel unsettling and dramatic.
Uppercase shapes read as carved and emphatic, while the lowercase keeps a similarly jagged texture but with slightly more compact, handwritten proportions. Numerals follow the same distressed logic, maintaining the spurred terminals and uneven stroke endings for consistent texture in titles and short strings.
