A heavy display face built from chunky, rounded letterforms with irregular edges and pronounced drip-like terminals. Strokes are compact and massy, with small counters and occasional notches or bite marks that create a distressed, hand-rendered silhouette. The rhythm is intentionally uneven: widths vary from glyph to glyph, curves feel swollen, and verticals often end in tapered, hanging shapes that suggest wet ink or paint. Numerals follow the same drippy construction, keeping the set visually consistent in texture and weight.
Best suited for short, high-impact text such as Halloween promotions, horror-comedy posters, themed party graphics, game titles, YouTube thumbnails, and spooky product packaging. It works well when large and given ample tracking and leading so the dripping contours stay distinct.
The overall tone is spooky and mischievous, combining horror-movie goo with a tongue-in-cheek, cartoon energy. The dripping texture reads as messy and tactile, evoking slime, melting wax, or thick paint—ideal for creating suspense with a playful edge rather than a polished, serious mood.
This design appears intended as a one-off decorative display font that prioritizes texture and atmosphere over neutrality, using exaggerated drips and distressed counters to deliver an instantly recognizable “melting/slime” effect in headlines and branding moments.
The texture is most prominent on lower edges, where multiple thin drips create a serrated baseline that can visually fuse at tight line spacing. Interior cutouts are irregular and sometimes partially filled, which enhances the grunge effect but reduces clarity at small sizes.
