A hand-drawn, monoline-style print face with sharply tapered stroke endings and frequent wedge-like terminals. Letterforms are narrow and tall with uneven widths and a lively, slightly jittery baseline rhythm. Curves are often faceted rather than perfectly round, and joints show abrupt angle changes that reinforce a carved, scratchy feel. Spacing appears loose and somewhat inconsistent in the texture, emphasizing an informal, improvised construction over strict typographic regularity.
This font works best at headline and display sizes where the sharp terminals and handmade texture remain crisp and intentional. It suits posters, cover art, branding accents, and entertainment contexts such as games or themed event materials where an eerie or quirky tone is desired. For long passages at small sizes, the narrow forms and irregular rhythm may reduce comfort and clarity.
The overall tone feels spooky and mischievous, with a Halloween or fantasy vibe driven by the spiky terminals and wiry proportions. Its irregularities read as intentionally quirky and expressive, giving it an energetic, hand-lettered personality rather than a polished, neutral voice.
The design appears intended to mimic quick, stylized marker or brush lettering with a deliberately spiky, gothic-adjacent flair. Its proportions and terminal treatment prioritize character and atmosphere over conventional text readability, aiming for expressive impact in short phrases.
Capitals are notably tall and dramatic, while the lowercase has a compact x-height with ascenders that dominate the line. Numerals share the same tapered, hand-cut look, helping the set feel cohesive for display use.
