How to Use Bloody Fonts to Their Best Effect

Don’t be fooled. Blood isn’t scary to everyone. Not all horror movies feature a bloody typeset on the DVD cover because it’s just so predictable now. (Instead, they might go for some other carefully designed horror fonts to get the right effect.)

Sometimes artists only use these for the cheap thrill it gives the art. But it doesn’t have to be cliche; it can be done right, and it can still give you that spooky effect you want.

From this surprisingly versatile collection, you can find one theme, one substance, but many shades of meaning.

• The Dripping Blood Font is a great example of how to do a blood font well. Even if it is just colored cornstarch on a B-rated horror flick.
• The Blood Splatter Font is great for those gory, violent stories that Goosebumps readers will love.
• Want something more suited to a serious graphic novel? The Handwritten Blood Font is the subtlest option here, while the Horror Blood Font is believably and wonderfully chilling.
• Speaking of subtle, if you’re going to be writing more than a few words with this, consider Otto Maurer’s Round Blood Font for a web-friendly typeface that won’t make the audience’s eyes bleed (unless that’s what you’re going for in which case try the Blood Bubble Font).
• Use the Blood Crow Font for that realistic “writing on the wall” featuring blood smears. Whodunnit? No psychotic serial killer will want to be caught without it.
• Trad Gothic chic? Try the Blood Bleeding Font , downloadable as JPEG raster files and EPS vectors for web use at the standard (read: low) license price. If you’re selling novelty items targeted for the spooky subcultures, this one is worth the money.
• Halloween invitation card? Blood Ghost Font. You can’t go wrong with this one. It is Halloween classic.

Set against a white or black background, you can make these lettered bloodstains work for you.
