A heavy, hand-drawn display face with rounded, blobby letterforms and intentionally uneven contours. Strokes show a dry-brush/marker texture with slightly ragged edges, soft corners, and subtle waviness that creates a lively rhythm. Counters are generally open but irregular, and widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, reinforcing a casual, handmade construction across both caps and lowercase.
Best suited to short display settings where texture and personality are desirable: Halloween and seasonal graphics, spooky or whimsical posters, kids/YA covers, game titles or UI headers, and character-driven packaging. It will read most confidently at medium-to-large sizes where the rough edges and uneven rhythm can be appreciated.
The overall tone feels mischievous and slightly eerie rather than truly menacing—like spooky storybook lettering or a Halloween poster drawn with a thick marker. Its rough ink texture and bouncy shapes give it a friendly, animated energy with a hint of creepiness.
Designed to emulate thick, hand-inked lettering with an intentionally imperfect finish, combining friendly cartoon proportions with a lightly unsettling, spooky flavor. The emphasis is on expressive texture and playful irregularity rather than precise, geometric consistency.
The forms favor simple, rounded geometry with occasional exaggerated terminals and asymmetries that add character. Numerals match the same chunky, hand-inked style, and the texture remains consistent at both the glyph grid and text sizes, where the irregular edges become part of the voice.
