Grimshade Font

Grimshade font by Alpaprana Studio is a free scary display font that looks like it was slashed onto the page with a dry brush. Jagged strokes, quick angles, and slightly uneven heights give it a breathless, chase-scene energy while staying readable at a glance. The texture feels inky and scraped, adding grit without turning to noise.

Using Grimshade, headlines lunge off the layout—great for horror posters, Halloween flyers, thriller book covers, escape-room branding, game titles, and eerie YouTube thumbnails. This free font thrives at large sizes with tight tracking; pair it with a clean, low-contrast sans for body copy to keep the drama focused where it counts.
