Stay Clear

Stay Clear by Brian Stuparyk and Dave Kellam is a free distorted display font with a beat-up, blotched silhouette that feels half melted, half stamped. The letters lean into rough, uneven edges and swollen lumps, while sharp points and sudden cuts keep it from turning soft, giving the whole font a scrappy late-90s underground poster mood.

It fits flyers, zine covers, band merch, title cards, horror-adjacent branding, and short editorial headlines where the shapes can do the talking. As a free font, it makes most sense in brief, high-impact settings like cover lines, logos, or one-word openers, because the ragged outlines and splattered texture bring instant tension without needing extra effects.
