A rough, display-focused face built from heavy, irregular strokes with sharp tears, drips, and bitten-looking contours. The outlines feel hand-rendered and ink-like, with frequent spikes and tapered ends that create a jagged silhouette. Counters are uneven and sometimes pinched or partially closed, and widths fluctuate noticeably from glyph to glyph, reinforcing an unstable rhythm. Numerals and capitals carry the same distressed treatment, with blotty joins and occasional dangling terminals that read like drips.
Best suited to headlines, title cards, posters, and packaging where a rough horror texture is a feature rather than a distraction. It can work well for event promotion (especially seasonal or haunted themes), game or streaming graphics, and punchy logotypes that need a distressed, alarming voice.
The overall tone is ominous and confrontational, evoking horror props, splattered ink, and scratched lettering. Its texture reads loud and noisy, with an intentionally unpolished energy suited to suspense, shock, and dark humor.
The design appears intended to simulate torn, dripping ink lettering with a deliberately wild perimeter and uneven internal spaces. It prioritizes atmosphere and texture over neutrality, aiming for immediate impact and a strong genre signal in display settings.
In longer text the aggressive edge detail creates a dense texture, making it most effective at larger sizes and shorter runs. The irregular contouring is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, keeping the set visually cohesive while preserving a chaotic, handmade feel.
