Keywords: horror posters, game titles, album covers, event flyers, trailers, menacing, chaotic, energetic, raw, punk, shock value, handmade grit, dramatic titling, distressed texture, brushy, jagged, spiky, ragged, tapered.
A rough brush display face with aggressive, slanted construction and sharply tapered terminals. Strokes alternate between thick, inky masses and thin, scratch-like hairlines, producing a lively, high-contrast rhythm. Letterforms are irregular and angular with frequent hooks, spikes, and broken edges, and the baseline feels intentionally unstable. Counters are often small or partially closed by heavy strokes, while diagonals and entry/exit strokes extend into pointed, blade-like tips.
Best suited for short, high-impact text such as horror or thriller titles, game and streaming thumbnails, album/track artwork, and aggressive promotional flyers. It works well where texture and attitude matter more than long-form readability, especially at larger sizes on dark or high-contrast backgrounds.
The font projects a tense, adversarial tone—like hurried marker lettering or clawed brush strokes. Its jagged texture and sharp tapers suggest danger and urgency, creating an expressive, cinematic grit that reads as unsettling and dramatic rather than refined.
Likely designed to emulate fast, forceful brush lettering with intentional roughness, using sharp terminals and broken edges to heighten tension and theatrical impact. The goal appears to be immediate visual drama and a distressed, hand-rendered authenticity for thematic display work.
Spacing appears intentionally inconsistent, reinforcing a hand-made, impulsive feel. The numeral set follows the same brush logic, with distinctive angled cuts and variable stroke endings that keep the texture cohesive across text and titling.
