Meet John Henry

Meet John Henry, from John Martz, is a free horror caps font with ragged brushy strokes, sharp drooping points, and a lean, uneasy rhythm. The letters feel hand-daubed and slightly feral, with blunt ends, sudden spikes, and a few ink-like drips that push it toward slasher-poster territory rather than vintage gothic.

Use this free font for horror posters, Halloween party flyers, zine covers, title cards, and short streaming thumbnails where the alphabet needs to look raw and a little unstable. It also works for band logos or chapter openers, especially when you want the caps to read like they were scrawled in a hurry and left to dry badly.
