A jagged, brush-drawn display face with strongly angled construction and pointed terminals. Strokes show uneven pressure and tapering, creating sharp wedges and occasional blunt, chiseled ends, with a slightly right-leaning stance across the alphabet. Counters are tight and often triangular or diamond-like, and several forms feel purposely distorted, giving an irregular rhythm and lively texture. The numerals and caps share the same cut, slashing geometry, producing a dense, high-impact silhouette that reads best at larger sizes.
Best suited to short headlines and titles where its jagged texture can be appreciated—such as horror-themed posters, Halloween promotions, game and film title cards, and album/merch graphics. It can also work for branding accents or signage-style lockups when an intentionally rough, unsettling tone is desired.
The overall tone is tense and edgy, with a handmade, hostile energy that suggests danger, suspense, and supernatural unease. Its scratchy, weapon-like angles and uneven rhythm evoke horror signage and DIY band graphics, delivering a dramatic, confrontational voice rather than a polished one.
The design appears intended to mimic fast, hand-painted lettering with sharpened edges and exaggerated, cut-in counters, maximizing menace and impact. Its irregular stroke behavior and angular simplification suggest an aim for expressive atmosphere over neutrality or continuous-text comfort.
Letterforms prioritize expressive silhouette over strict consistency: diagonals dominate, curves are reduced to sharp bends, and joins feel like quick brush turns. Spacing appears visually uneven in running text, contributing to a frantic, gritty texture that can be used as a feature in headlines.
