Day Of The Tentacle

Day Of The Tentacle font by Jenny Barck is a free comic display typeface with a wonderfully wobbly, hand-drawn attitude. The tall, leaning letters and squashed curves look like they’ve been scribbled straight from a ’90s adventure game title screen—quirky, slightly spooky, but still playful. Uneven strokes and unexpected angles give the text a rubbery, animated feel that jumps off the page or screen without ever becoming unreadable.

Using Day Of The Tentacle, you can instantly turn headlines into campy horror logos, retro game visuals, Halloween party invites, zine titles, or offbeat YouTube thumbnails. This free font shines on posters, web banners, stickers, and merch where you want a mischievous, cartoon-creepy tone. Pair it with a clean, neutral sans serif for body copy and let Day Of The Tentacle handle the loud, character-packed headings at larger sizes.
