A rough, brushy display face with heavy strokes, sharp tapers, and aggressively ragged edges. Letterforms are irregular and slightly slanted, with varied stroke widths and a hand-drawn rhythm that makes each glyph feel carved or scratched rather than constructed. Counters are often tight and uneven, terminals end in spikes or blunted tears, and the baseline/sidebearings read intentionally inconsistent, creating a jittery, distressed texture in words. Numerals and caps carry similar weight and abrasion, maintaining a cohesive, ink-smeared silhouette across the set.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as horror and thriller titles, posters, game branding, event flyers, and album/merch graphics. It works especially well when paired with simple supporting type and high-contrast color palettes, where the distressed strokes can function as a primary visual texture.
The font projects a tense, ominous tone—like hastily painted warnings or titles scraped into a surface. Its fractured outlines and spiky terminals evoke danger and unease, lending an eerie, underground energy that feels more feral than polished.
The design appears intended to simulate aggressive hand-made lettering—brush and ink dragged quickly, then torn into spikes and irregular edges—to deliver immediate tension and theatrical menace. Its consistent abrasion and slanted momentum suggest a focus on expressive atmosphere over neutral readability.
In running text the heavy texture builds quickly, producing strong atmosphere but reduced clarity at smaller sizes. The most successful results come from giving it space (larger sizes, looser tracking) so the jagged contouring can read as intentional detail rather than visual noise.
