A jagged, inked display face with irregular, torn contours and pronounced drip-like terminals. Strokes appear brushy and distressed, with sharp notches and occasional bulbous swellings that create a lively, unstable rhythm. Counters are small and uneven, and many letters end in tapered points or dangling drops that emphasize verticality. Overall spacing feels compact, and the silhouette of each glyph is intentionally rough and organic rather than geometric or polished.
Best suited to display settings where atmosphere is the goal: horror film posters, haunted house and Halloween promotions, spooky-themed packaging, and title treatments for games, streams, or videos. It performs especially well in short headlines, logos, and punchy callouts where the dripping silhouettes can be appreciated.
The font projects an ominous, horror-poster mood—sticky, grimy, and unsettling—while remaining readable enough to feel like classic “monster movie” titling. Its drips and ragged edges add a sense of decay and danger, with a playful B-movie edge when used at larger sizes.
The design appears intended to evoke dripping paint or congealed ink, using distressed edges and pointed descenders to signal menace and decay. It prioritizes silhouette and mood over typographic neutrality, aiming for instant thematic recognition in headline use.
The distressed texture is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, giving a cohesive “wet ink” look. The uneven terminals and varying edge erosion create strong character in short bursts, but the active outlines can become visually noisy in long passages or at small sizes.
