A chunky, block-built slab serif with squarish counters and flat, rectangular terminals. Strokes keep a mostly even weight, but the outlines deliberately wobble and taper in places, creating a cut-paper or hand-carved feel rather than geometric precision. Serifs are heavy and blunt, with occasional asymmetry and uneven joins that give letters a slightly off-kilter rhythm. The texture reads dark and compact at text sizes, with distinctive, angular silhouettes and subtly inconsistent widths across characters.
Best suited to display settings such as posters, titles, product packaging, and themed graphics where a bold, characterful texture is desirable. It can also work for game UI, labels, and short callouts, especially in playful or slightly eerie contexts, but is less comfortable for extended reading.
The overall tone is mischievous and informal, with a comic, spooky-fun energy that feels intentionally roughened and theatrical. Its irregularities add personality and motion, suggesting a handmade display voice rather than a polished editorial one.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong slab-serif presence while injecting handcrafted irregularity for personality and novelty. It prioritizes distinctive silhouettes and a lively, uneven texture over strict consistency, aiming for eye-catching display impact.
The sample text shows strong impact in short lines, while the jittery edges and tight interior spaces can make longer passages feel busy. The numerals and lowercase maintain the same blocky, slabbed construction, supporting cohesive headline and poster use where character shapes can be appreciated.
