A heavy, rounded display face with soft, swollen silhouettes and pronounced drip terminals that hang from bowls, arms, and crossbars. Strokes are broadly consistent in weight but intentionally uneven at the edges, creating a melted, hand-inked texture rather than crisp geometry. Counters are small and often pinched or partially closed, and several forms show slight asymmetry and wobble that reinforces an organic, liquid rhythm. Numerals and lowercase match the same chunky proportions and droplet details, keeping the set visually cohesive in headlines.
Well-suited for Halloween promotions, horror-themed posters, haunted house branding, and campy thriller or monster-movie titles. It works especially well for short, punchy headlines, logos, and packaging where the dripping silhouette can be the primary visual hook.
The overall tone is spooky in a playful, B-movie way—more haunted-house signage and slime than stark terror. The dripping contours suggest ooze, blood, or melting wax, giving text an immediate eerie atmosphere while still feeling approachable and fun.
This font appears designed to deliver instant horror atmosphere through a single, recognizable gimmick: thick, rounded letterforms that melt into drips. The intent is maximum personality and thematic impact in display settings, prioritizing silhouette and mood over neutral readability.
The drip details add strong character but also create a busy silhouette; readability holds best at larger sizes where the inner counters and small notches don’t visually fill in. The texture reads like deliberate “melt” effects rather than distressed noise, so it stays consistent across letters in continuous text.
