A heavy, compact display face with rounded, swollen contours and uneven edges. Many strokes terminate in short drips and teardrop-like protrusions, giving the baseline a wet, melting silhouette. Counters are relatively small and simplified, while corners alternate between softened curves and slightly jagged nicks, creating a deliberately distressed rhythm without losing the basic skeleton of each letter. Numerals and lowercase follow the same drippy treatment, with consistent weight and a slightly irregular, handmade texture across the set.
Best suited to short, bold applications such as Halloween promotions, horror-themed posters, haunted attraction signage, title cards, packaging callouts, and game or stream branding. It also works well for badges, stickers, and social graphics where a single word or phrase needs instant spooky flavor.
The font communicates classic horror signage with a tongue-in-cheek edge—more spooky-poster and haunted-house than truly grim. Its dripping terminals suggest ooze, slime, or blood, while the rounded forms keep the tone approachable and graphic. Overall it feels theatrical, high-contrast in mood, and immediately attention-grabbing.
The design appears intended to deliver immediate horror atmosphere through dripping terminals and chunky, simplified letterforms, prioritizing impact and theme over neutral readability. It aims to evoke slime/blood effects in a clean, repeatable typographic system for headlines and display messaging.
In longer lines of text the repeated drips create a strong horizontal texture, so spacing and line height benefit from a bit of breathing room. The most distinctive character comes from the baseline drips and the softened, blobby shapes, which read best at larger sizes where the irregular details remain clear.
