It’s that time of year again, the veil thins, the nights stretch out, and Bad Type Club returns from the typographic underworld bearing gifts. Introducing BTC Spooky Grotesk, a brand new open-source typeface engineered to make your work look like it was printed on the crumbling walls of a haunted house.
This isn’t your run-of-the-mill Halloween font that screams “free vector bat.” Spooky Grotesk is a one-weight, open-type anomaly with three alternates for every glyph across the extended Latin alphabet, a Frankenstein’s lab of subtle variation and beautiful imperfection. Use it for your cursed party flyers, your Misfits tribute posters, your zine about cryptids drinking cold brew. Thanks for haunting this space again with us, may your Halloween be exquisitely eerie, and your kerning forever cursed.
