Nightbird Font
Author's note
Nightbird by David Kerkhoff is a free horror display font with forceful, brush-shaped capitals, torn edges, and splintered white gaps cutting through the strokes. Its widths lurch between broad slabs and pinched cuts.
In poster design, its uneven silhouettes suit horror screenings, haunted attractions, and dark music events, especially when the title should feel physically scraped. Merchandise gains a rough, hand-painted mark that feels closer to a slashed sign than polished branding. Against smoky photography or distressed illustrations, the broken strokes can echo claw marks, cracked paint, or damaged film.
