Scab

Scab is Daniel Gauthier's free distorted display font, and it looks gloriously crusted over. The letters feel swollen, lumpy, and pitted, with thick black outlines around a speckled interior that gives the whole alphabet a grubby comic-horror tone rather than a slick digital finish.

That makes this free font a natural pick for punk flyers, B-movie posters, zines, Halloween packaging, and game title cards where clean geometry would feel too polite. It also works well for short headlines and logo-style wordmarks, because the rough, scabbed texture carries so much character before you add any extra treatment.
