A heavy, rounded display face built from soft, blob-like silhouettes with irregular, dripping terminals. Strokes are mostly monoline in feel, but the contour edges wobble and swell, creating a hand-formed rhythm and uneven texture across words. Counters are small and sometimes pinched, and many glyphs end in tear-drop drips that extend below the baseline, giving the line a ragged, liquid fringe. Overall spacing reads fairly open for such dense shapes, helping the forms stay recognizable at display sizes.
Best suited to posters, splashy headlines, Halloween or horror-themed promotions, and entertainment/event flyers where the dripping silhouette can work as a graphic element. It can also add a playful “slime” voice to packaging or social graphics when used sparingly and set large.
The dripping contours and inky massing evoke classic horror and monster-movie title cards, with a playful, tongue-in-cheek edge rather than a purely sinister tone. It feels gooey, haunted-house theatrical, and purpose-built for attention-grabbing headlines.
The design appears intended to mimic wet ink or oozing slime, turning each letter into a small illustration while keeping the basic skeleton familiar for quick recognition. Its goal is impact and mood-setting rather than neutrality or continuous-reading comfort.
The alphabet mixes approachable, rounded construction with intentionally inconsistent drip lengths, which adds character but can create a busy baseline in longer lines. The strongest impact comes from large sizes and short phrases where the silhouette can read as a single graphic gesture.
