A rough, brush-driven display face with aggressive, irregular edges and sharp tapered terminals. Strokes show pronounced texture and bite-like notches, creating a chiseled silhouette that varies from letter to letter while maintaining a consistent slanted rhythm. Many forms mix heavy downstrokes with thin, scratchy connectors, and counters are often tight or partially enclosed, giving the shapes a compact, ink-splattered feel. Numerals follow the same distressed construction, with uneven curves and pointed ends that read best at larger sizes.
Best suited for short, high-impact text such as film or book titles, horror-themed posters, game or Halloween branding, and punchy packaging or merch graphics. It can also work for pull quotes or section headers when you want an intentionally distressed, hand-painted tone rather than a clean, typographic voice.
The font projects a tense, unsettling energy—like hurried lettering painted with a fraying brush. Its scratch marks and thorny contours evoke danger and suspense, leaning into horror and dark fantasy associations while still feeling handmade and expressive.
This design appears intended to mimic distressed brush lettering with exaggerated spikes and worn edges, prioritizing mood and immediacy over refinement. The goal is to deliver instant genre signaling and dramatic texture in display settings.
The texture is integral to the design: edges appear intentionally eroded and sometimes speckled, so outlines can look different from glyph to glyph in a lively way. Spacing and widths feel uneven by design, contributing to a restless rhythm that favors dramatic headlines over continuous reading.
