Halloween Fonts That'll Make You Popular
Halloween is only 25 days away, which means if you're planning a big Monster Mash with your friends, you'd better get those invitations out soon! Well the great people over at Veer have just the remedy, a collection of fonts called Typo Negtive, perfect for making your invitation stand out against all the others. Cuz' face it, this is LA, and if you use some janky font on your invitation, no one's going to come to your party, even if you do have jello hands floating in your weakly spiked punch.
The fonts are $39 a piece, so yes, you have to pay for them. Why? Because fonts are not magically born on the crescent moon after a virgin has been sacrificed on an alter (though Hollywood Forever should look into that...). Some typography loving person sat down, drew it out, scanned it, adjusted the height and kerning, and then lovingly released it into the world.
So whether you're having a gruesome Saw themed party, or a Death Proof shindig, either way you'll be covered.
