A jagged, hand-drawn display face with irregular, brush-like strokes and frequent thorny spur terminals. Stems are generally thin with sharp tapers, occasional flare-like joins, and a deliberately uneven edge that reads as scratched ink or dry-brush texture. Curves are slightly lopsided and angularized, counters stay open and readable, and widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, giving the line a restless rhythm. Numerals and capitals keep the same spiky, distressed construction, maintaining a consistent horror-leaning texture across the set.
Best suited to short, high-impact copy such as horror titles, Halloween and seasonal promotions, game or streaming key art, and chapter heads where atmosphere matters more than typographic neutrality. It can work for small bursts of UI labels or packaging accents when paired with a quieter companion text face.
The overall tone is dark and unsettling, evoking occult signage, haunted-house ephemera, and supernatural storytelling. Its sharp, irregular endings and wiry silhouettes suggest tension and menace rather than elegance or warmth.
The design appears intended to deliver an instantly spooky, hand-made feel through thorny terminals, uneven stroke texture, and slightly unstable letterforms while keeping enough structure for headline readability.
Spacing appears moderately loose in the sample text, which helps preserve legibility despite the distressed edges. The texture is strongest at terminals and along vertical strokes, where the spikes and roughness become a defining motif.
