A heavy, condensed display face with irregular, blunted strokes and consistently ragged contours. Terminals look torn or melted, with small drips and nicks that create a jittery silhouette while keeping strong, solid letter bodies. Counters are compact and often unevenly shaped, and the overall rhythm feels hand-inked rather than mechanically uniform, with subtle per-glyph wobble and width variation across the set.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as horror or Halloween headlines, poster titles, packaging callouts, and entertainment graphics where texture is part of the message. It can also work for game menus or streaming thumbnails when used at larger sizes to preserve the distressed edge detail.
The texture reads like wet ink, slime, or decayed paper edges, giving the type a B-movie horror and haunted-house flavor. Its exaggerated darkness and distressed outlines push it toward shock-value titles and playful creepiness rather than refined elegance.
The design appears intended to deliver instant atmosphere through a deliberately imperfect, dripped/eroded outline treatment applied to a compact, poster-friendly structure. It prioritizes dramatic texture and a bold silhouette for attention-grabbing display typography.
Capitals have a blocky, poster-like presence, while the lowercase keeps the same distressed language and remains highly assertive in color. Numerals match the rough perimeter and chunky construction, supporting cohesive set-wide styling.
