A condensed, upright display face with monoline-like stroke weight and deliberately uneven contours. Letterforms are built from chunky, angular skeletons, but edges ripple and notch as if cut by hand, creating a rough, chiseled silhouette. Terminals tend to be blunt and irregular, bowls are slightly squarish, and curves wobble rather than flow smoothly. Spacing and widths vary noticeably across glyphs, reinforcing an intentionally unstable rhythm while keeping cap height and x-height broadly consistent.
Best suited to short, attention-grabbing settings such as posters, event titles, Halloween or horror-comedy promotions, and expressive packaging. It also fits album/cover art and display typography where texture and character are more important than quiet readability.
The texture reads playful and eerie at the same time—more mischievous than truly scary. Its rough-cut outlines and twitchy rhythm evoke handmade signage, old-fashioned oddities, and storybook mischief, giving lines of text a lively, haunted-carnival energy.
The design appears aimed at creating a one-off, characterful display voice by combining condensed proportions with rough, hand-cut outlines. The consistent stroke weight and upright construction keep it usable for words and phrases, while the irregular perimeter supplies the novelty and attitude.
In continuous text the irregular edges create strong color and visual noise, which works as a stylistic effect but can reduce clarity at small sizes. Numerals and capitals carry the strongest personality, with distinctive notches and waviness that become more legible when given room.
