Author's note

Nightmare font by Mozatype is a free Halloween display font that leans into eerie theatrics without losing legibility. Tall, tapering forms flare like candle flames, while little horned curls and inky, woodcut edges add a storybook-spooky vibe. The rhythm is tight and punchy, so headlines snap even at a distance, and the irregular curves keep it feeling handmade rather than sterile.

Using Nightmare, seasonal graphics instantly read as haunted—great for haunted house posters, party invites, candy labels, yard signs, YouTube thumbnails, and social promos. This free font shines big and bold; pair it with a clean sans for details and keep body copy lighter to let those creeping serifs breathe.
