A heavy, all-caps-friendly display face built from chunky silhouettes with irregular, torn edges and occasional drip-like protrusions. Strokes are largely monolinear in feel, but the outlines wobble and erode, creating uneven counters and a noisy texture along verticals, horizontals, and curves. The character set keeps a mostly simple, blocky skeleton while letting the perimeter do the expressive work; round letters are lumpy rather than geometric, and interior spaces tend to be small and uneven. Spacing appears moderately tight in text, with variable sidebearings that amplify the handmade, unsettled rhythm.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as horror or thriller titles, Halloween promotions, haunted attraction signage, and game or streaming thumbnail typography. It can work for punchy subheads or pull quotes when set large with generous leading; for longer passages, the distressed edge noise may reduce comfort and clarity.
The font communicates a campy, horror-leaning tension—like ink that has bled, melted, or been chewed away. Its rough perimeter and drips evoke decay and suspense, giving headlines a haunted, B-movie poster energy while staying legible at display sizes.
The design appears intended to deliver immediate genre signaling through a deliberately degraded, drippy outline while preserving recognizable letter skeletons for quick readability. It prioritizes texture and atmosphere over refinement, aiming for a handcrafted, unsettling display voice that holds together across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Uppercase forms are the most confident and poster-like, while lowercase retains the same ragged edge treatment and slightly narrower feel in places. Numerals and punctuation match the distressed silhouette style, keeping a consistent texture across mixed-content settings.
