A heavy, display-oriented serif with chunky strokes and low contrast, built from compact, rounded forms that are cut with small triangular notches. Terminals frequently flare into wedge-like serifs and pointed beaks, creating a chiseled silhouette while keeping counters relatively open. The alphabet mixes smooth curves with abrupt angular bites, producing an intentionally uneven rhythm and slightly wavy verticals that feel hand-shaped rather than strictly geometric. Numerals follow the same broad, sculpted style, with strong silhouettes and occasional sharp hooks at joins and ends.
Best used for short, attention-grabbing text such as posters, party invitations, seasonal campaigns, game or stream overlays, and cover typography where the silhouette can be appreciated. It is most effective at display sizes, especially on high-contrast backgrounds where the notched details read clearly.
The overall tone is ominous but approachable—more campy haunted-house than grim brutality. Its carved, fang-like details evoke Halloween signage, gothic story titles, and spooky-fun packaging, with a theatrical presence that reads as mischievous and dramatic.
Designed to deliver immediate character through a bold, carved silhouette that blends rounded letter bodies with sharp, tooth-like interruptions. The intention appears to be a spooky-themed display face that stays legible while projecting a theatrical, hand-cut sign aesthetic.
The distinctive identity comes from consistent triangular cut-ins at shoulders and inner corners, plus wedge serifs that turn many strokes into pointed finishes. Round letters (O, C, G, Q) stay fairly full, helping legibility at larger sizes while still delivering a jagged, decorative edge.
