Distorted and Scratchy

Distorted and Scratchy font by Philip is a free eroded display typeface that looks like it’s been dragged across a rough concrete wall. Thick, wobbly letters are packed with chaotic, hand-drawn scratches that create a buzzing, noisy texture on the page. It feels raw and unstable, as if the text might start shaking at any moment-great when you want your titles to feel uneasy, loud, or defiantly lo-fi.

Using Distorted and Scratchy, your words instantly pick up a horror-meets-punk energy that stands out in crowded layouts. This free font works beautifully for horror posters, glitchy event flyers, album art, zines, game titles, and YouTube thumbnails. Keep it large so the scratch marks stay crisp, and pair it with a plain, condensed sans serif for body text to keep everything readable while the headlines go wild.
