A condensed, upright display face with solid black letterforms carved by a thin, irregular inline that tracks through the stems and bowls. Strokes show deliberate wobble and tapered, knife-like terminals, creating a slightly uneven silhouette while maintaining consistent vertical rhythm. Counters are relatively tight and angular, and several shapes lean toward simplified, sign-painter geometry rather than strict typographic construction. Numerals and lowercase share the same narrow, tall proportions, with the inline cut adding texture and a hand-cut feel across the set.
Best suited to display applications where texture and personality are desired—posters, headlines, packaging, book covers, and event flyers. The inline carving detail benefits from larger sizes and higher contrast settings, making it a strong choice for short, attention-grabbing copy rather than extended reading.
The carved-through strokes and jittery edges give the font a theatrical, slightly eerie energy that feels at home in vintage novelty contexts. It reads as mischievous and handcrafted—more haunted-poster than formal editorial—while staying legible enough for short phrases and punchy lines.
The design appears intended to combine a condensed display skeleton with a carved inline effect to create instant novelty and atmosphere. Its controlled narrow proportions provide structure, while the irregular cut and wavy stroke edges deliver a handcrafted, slightly gothic showcard flavor.
The inline is not perfectly centered and varies subtly in width and placement, which enhances the handmade character and adds visual movement at larger sizes. The narrow set heightens density in text blocks, producing a tight, poster-like color that can feel intentionally busy in longer passages.
