A heavy, slanted display face with chunky, irregular silhouettes and strongly distressed edges. Strokes look brush-painted and torn, with uneven contours, small notches, and occasional ink-like protrusions that create a lively, unstable rhythm. Counters are often tight and asymmetrical, and joins can appear blobby or chewed, emphasizing a rough, handmade texture. Numerals match the same rugged construction, keeping a consistent, noisy color across lines of text.
Best suited to short headlines, posters, title cards, and packaging where a distressed, spooky attitude is the main message. It can work well for entertainment branding (horror, punk, metal, or campy monster themes) and attention-grabbing promos, but is less appropriate for long-form reading or small UI text.
The overall tone is loud and theatrical, leaning into horror-comic grit rather than refinement. It suggests pulpy genre energy—messy, rowdy, and intentionally unsettling—while still staying readable at display sizes.
The design appears intended to deliver an immediate, gritty impact through exaggerated weight, a forward slant, and torn brush-like edges. Its irregularity and texture prioritize character and atmosphere over typographic neutrality, aiming for expressive display use.
Spacing feels intentionally uneven from glyph to glyph, reinforcing a hand-made, one-off feel. The texture becomes more prominent as text blocks build, so the face works best when the distressed perimeter can remain visible and not fill in.
