A wiry, irregular display face with tapered strokes that frequently end in needle-like points and small barbed terminals. The letterforms feel lightly drawn and intentionally uneven, mixing narrow, condensed shapes with occasional wider counters for a jittery rhythm. Curves are slightly wobbly and joins are abrupt, giving an organic, hand-inked look rather than geometric construction. Capitals are tall and slender with sharp, simplified serifs, while lowercase maintains a readable structure but keeps the same spiky finishing and variable stroke flare. Numerals follow the same thin, scratchy logic, with open forms and pointed ends that keep the texture consistent in text.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, titles, chapter heads, packaging, and event graphics where an eerie atmosphere is desired. It performs well for seasonal and horror-adjacent branding, as well as decorative pull quotes or signage-style treatments where the spiky texture can be appreciated.
The overall tone is ominous and theatrical, evoking spooky signage, cursed storybook titles, and haunted-house ephemera. Its nervous edges and dagger-like terminals create tension, while the hand-made irregularity adds a folkloric, ritualistic feel rather than a sleek horror aesthetic.
The design appears intended to deliver a spooky, hand-rendered voice through thin, tapering strokes and sharpened terminals, balancing legibility with unsettling texture. Its irregular rhythm and barbed detailing suggest a focus on atmospheric display typography rather than neutral text setting.
Spacing and widths vary noticeably across glyphs, which contributes to a restless, hand-set impression in longer lines. The texture becomes more pronounced at larger sizes where the subtle hooks, spikes, and tapering can read as deliberate character details.
