Dogs

Dogs font by Layes is a free eroded scary display typeface that looks like it’s been scratched into a wall with something sharp. The letters are jagged, uneven, and thick with inky black, giving every word a raw, anxious energy. There’s a handmade, slightly feral quality here—messy edges, wild angles, and just enough irregularity to feel dangerous without becoming unreadable.

Using Dogs, you can push horror posters, Halloween flyers, metal band logos, game titles, haunted house signage, and creepy book covers into genuinely unsettling territory. This free font works best at larger sizes where its torn, splintered edges can really show, and it pairs well with a clean sans serif for supporting text to keep layouts legible and grounded.
