A condensed display face built from heavy, irregular strokes with sharp tapers and ragged edges. Letterforms feel hand-cut or brush-inked: stems flare and pinch unpredictably, counters are often tight, and terminals end in hooked points or thorn-like wedges. The texture is deliberately uneven, with lumpy curves and chiseled angles that create a jittery rhythm across words while maintaining a consistent narrow silhouette. Numerals echo the same distressed, pointed construction, reading as carved shapes rather than smooth typographic forms.
Well suited for large, attention-grabbing headlines in horror, thriller, or paranormal contexts—posters, event flyers, title cards, album artwork, and game or streaming graphics. It can also work for short labels or signage where a deliberately unsettling, handcrafted texture is desired, but is less appropriate for long-form text due to its dense counters and highly irregular detailing.
The font projects a tense, horror-leaning atmosphere—part gothic menace, part Halloween poster energy. Its jagged rhythm and stabbing terminals suggest danger and suspense, with an intentionally rough finish that feels gritty and handmade rather than polished.
The design appears intended to deliver immediate genre signaling through exaggerated spikes, tapered terminals, and distressed stroke edges, prioritizing mood and impact over neutrality. Its condensed proportions help it stack into tight headline spaces while still feeling loud and theatrical.
Spacing appears compact, and the narrow forms can cause interior shapes to close up at smaller sizes; the face reads best when given room and set at display scale. The spikiness is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, helping mixed-case settings keep a unified, unsettling tone.
