A distressed display face with jagged, irregular contours and frequent droplet-like terminals that create a wet-ink, drip effect. Strokes show pronounced thick–thin shifts and rough edge breakup, as if eroded or smeared, while counters remain mostly open enough to keep letterforms recognizable. Proportions are generally compact with sturdy verticals, but individual glyphs vary in width and silhouette, enhancing the handmade, unstable rhythm. Numerals and lowercase follow the same torn, dripping treatment, producing a cohesive set with intentionally inconsistent edges and texture.
Best suited to short display settings where the distressed, dripping texture can be appreciated—poster headlines, Halloween and haunted-attraction branding, horror game title screens, and album or book cover titling. It can also work for packaging or social graphics that need an immediate spooky cue, especially when set large with generous tracking.
The font reads as ominous and grimy, evoking horror props, haunted signage, and macabre print ephemera. Its dripping terminals and ragged outlines suggest decay and suspense, giving headlines a confrontational, unsettling tone.
Likely designed to deliver an instant horror signal through dripping terminals, torn edges, and high-contrast stroke modulation while keeping core letterforms familiar enough for headline readability. The consistent distress language across caps, lowercase, and numerals suggests an emphasis on cohesive themed titling rather than extended text typography.
Texture is a primary feature: edge noise, small voids, and uneven stroke endings remain visible even at larger sizes, while smaller sizes risk losing crispness as the distress detail clumps. The irregular width and varying silhouettes add energy in short bursts but can reduce uniformity across longer lines.
