A heavy, rounded display face with irregular, torn-looking terminals and subtly uneven stroke edges. Letterforms are mostly upright and generously thick, with soft curves and occasional ink-like nicks and notches that create a distressed silhouette. Proportions vary per glyph, producing a lively rhythm; counters are generally open but sometimes show roughened interior shaping, especially in rounded forms. The numerals match the same chunky construction and weathered detailing, keeping the set visually cohesive.
Best suited for display typography such as posters, event promos, game titles, and short headlines where a bold silhouette and distressed character are desirable. It also fits themed packaging and labels that want a rough, playful fright-night aesthetic, and can work for logos when the handmade irregularity is part of the brand voice.
The overall tone reads as spooky-fun rather than truly sinister—suggesting Halloween props, creature-feature titles, and playful horror. Its rough, brushy distressing adds energy and a handmade feel, lending a slightly chaotic, comedic edge.
Likely designed to deliver an instantly thematic, distressed display voice with strong impact and a deliberately imperfect, hand-cut or brush-torn feel. The goal appears to be legibility at headline sizes while emphasizing character through ragged terminals and uneven contours.
The distressed texture is integrated into the structure (not just surface noise), so the font keeps a strong black presence at display sizes while still feeling ragged. The irregularity between similar strokes contributes to an organic, improvised look that favors short, punchy lines over long passages.
