A condensed, heavy display face with tall proportions and a mostly monoline feel, punctuated by irregular, tapering terminals. Many strokes end in droplet-like points and short drips that create a downward, melting silhouette. Curves are slightly lumpy and uneven, and counters are compact, giving the letters a dense, inky color. Spacing appears tight and the rhythm is lively due to small shape inconsistencies and occasional bite-like notches along edges.
Best suited to short headlines where the dripping silhouette can be appreciated—posters, title screens, packaging callouts, and Halloween or horror-themed promotions. It works well for punchy phrases and branding moments that benefit from an intentionally grimy, spooky texture.
The dripping terminals and ragged edges evoke classic horror title cards, haunted-house signage, and creature-feature posters. Its tone is more theatrical than subtle—designed to feel unsettling, gooey, and high-contrast against light backgrounds.
The design appears intended to deliver an immediate horror cue through condensed, high-impact shapes combined with drip-like terminals and roughened contours. The goal is legibility at display sizes while leaning into a stylized “melting ink” effect for mood and character.
The dripping details are frequent enough to read as a consistent motif across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, but their irregularity adds a handcrafted, distressed energy. At smaller sizes, the fine drips can visually merge, so the style reads strongest when given room and scale.
