A heavy, irregular display face with chunky strokes and aggressively rough, torn-looking contours. Letterforms are mostly upright with simplified construction and uneven, hand-hewn edges that create a vibrating silhouette. Counters are small and sometimes off-center, and rounded shapes skew toward lumpy polygons rather than smooth curves. Spacing and sidebearings feel inconsistent by design, adding a jittery rhythm in words while maintaining clear enough skeletons for headline use.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, cover art, event branding, and title cards where texture is an asset. It works particularly well for horror-comedy, Halloween promotions, punk/metal-adjacent graphics, and playful spooky game UI. Use with generous tracking and strong contrast backgrounds to keep the rough edges readable.
The texture reads as gritty and mischievous—somewhere between horror-comic and DIY punk. Its rough perimeter and blunt shapes give it a handmade, slightly menacing energy, while the exaggerated, bouncy irregularity keeps it from feeling purely dark. Overall it signals chaos, attitude, and campy suspense.
The design appears intended to deliver an immediate, one-off display voice by combining bold mass with a consistently distressed, ragged outline. It prioritizes character and texture over typographic neutrality, aiming to look hand-cut, eroded, or crudely stamped while remaining legible in short lines.
The font’s personality comes primarily from its distressed outline rather than from complex internal details, so it stays visually dense even at smaller sizes. Angular notches and bite-like indentations appear repeatedly, giving the set a cohesive ‘ripped’ surface across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
