Kat Skratch

Kat Skratch font is a free grunge horror typeface that looks like it’s been slashed into the page with sharp claws. Each letter splinters into jagged, ink-soaked strokes, with uneven spacing and wild angles that feel raw and unpredictable. The result is loud, chaotic, and a little unsettling—great when you want your title to feel like it’s about to jump off the screen.

Using Kat Skratch, you can crank up the tension on horror posters, Halloween flyers, thriller book covers, escape room branding, creepy game titles, or edgy album art. This free font works best big and bold, where its scratchy details can really show. For body copy, pair it with a clean sans serif so the text stays readable while Kat Skratch handles the screams.
