This typeface uses thin-to-medium strokes with a deliberately rough, uneven contour that makes each character look torn or corroded. Letterforms are mostly simple and upright, with irregular edges, small nicks, and wobbling curves that create a vibrating outline rather than a clean perimeter. Counters stay generally open, but terminals often end in blunt stubs or slight hooks, and curves (notably in C, G, O, and S) appear slightly lumpy as if ink bled or the shapes were eroded. Overall spacing and widths vary from glyph to glyph, reinforcing a handmade, distressed rhythm.
It works best for short, high-impact settings where texture is an asset: horror and thriller titles, Halloween promotions, haunted-attraction materials, game menus, and poster or cover typography. Use at display sizes to preserve the rugged detail and keep the distressed contours from filling in visually.
The texture and jagged silhouette give the font a creepy, antiquated mood reminiscent of cursed manuscripts, occult ephemera, or weathered signage. Its unsettling irregularity reads as intentional decay, adding tension and menace even in neutral copy.
The design appears intended to simulate hand-rendered lettering that has been damaged by time—scratched, torn, or ink-worn—while keeping the core skeleton of each glyph readable. The aim is to provide an immediately atmospheric, unsettling voice without relying on extreme letterform distortion.
In the sample text, the distressed edges remain consistent across sizes, producing a dark, noisy color on the line that can feel gritty and atmospheric. The figures follow the same rough treatment, with recognizable forms that prioritize character over precision.
