A distressed display face with narrow proportions and irregular, eroded contours. Strokes maintain a mostly consistent thickness but break into jagged edges and thorn-like protrusions, creating a chiseled, torn-ink silhouette. Counters are uneven and slightly pinched, and terminals often end in sharp nicks rather than clean cuts. Overall rhythm is intentionally unstable, with hand-worn texture applied consistently across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings where texture is an asset: posters, title cards, packaging accents, and theatrical/event promotion. It works especially well for horror or mystery branding, game and film titling, and cover typography where a distressed, ominous tone is desired.
The texture and spiky interruptions give the type a tense, unsettling presence, like weathered lettering pulled from an old warning placard. Its rough edges and dark color mass read as ominous and theatrical, lending itself to supernatural or suspense-driven themes.
The design appears intended to evoke worn, menacing lettering through controlled distressing and sharp, irregular terminals while keeping familiar serif-like structures for readability in display sizes. The goal is character and atmosphere over neutrality, producing a strong silhouette that signals danger and drama at a glance.
Uppercase forms feel more angular and monolithic, while the lowercase keeps a compact, storybook-like footprint; together they create a strong headline voice. Numerals match the same ragged perimeter and hold up as a set, though fine details may close up at small sizes or on low-resolution output.
