DPCarved

DP Carved font by Dead Pete is a free distorted display typeface that looks like it’s been scratched into metal or chipped from stone. Angular, broken strokes give every letter a jagged, hand-carved feel, with sharp points and unexpected bends that keep the eye moving. There’s a raw, slightly unhinged energy here—edgy enough for horror and metal, but still legible when you crank it up in size.

Using DP Carved, you can punch up horror movie posters, metal or punk band logos, game titles, underground event flyers, zines, and YouTube thumbnails that need a chaotic edge. This free font thrives in big headlines where the fractured shapes can really breathe; pair it with a plain, narrow sans serif for supporting text so the carved texture stays in the spotlight.
