About Derelict
Derelict is a display font by Gracetypestudio, released in 2026. Its full name says it well: display horror. The letters give a creepy, horror feel.
Try it on book covers and video titles; it also holds up on party invitations. DM Sans makes a safe partner for paragraphs and captions. Pick one display font per design; two of them tend to fight for attention.
You get one font file in the download (Derelict-Demo.otf), covering uppercase, lowercase and numbers.
Licence: Personal Use Only. The free download is for personal projects only. For logos, client work, products or ads, buy a commercial licence from Gracetypestudio.
