Description
Hopefully this is an acceptable entry for `shelldevil 's Thriller! A Resource Contest . I jammed out to Thriller by Michael Jackson while I worked on this font, so it was heavily inspired by the song.
I have been itching to do another font. And why not do one inspired by the upcoming holiday. I know what you are thinking. "But Sparkly...all of your fonts are kinda halloween and spooky inspired." I know, I am okay with that. This just gives me a good reason to do another.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Some advice when using this:
It is used best at 6 pt (16 pixel).
As a heads up, in some instances you might have to add a random letter to have your word come in crisp. You can then go in and erase the letter manually. (If someone knows of another way to correct that, please share.)

Can I tell you...my heart stop this morning when you uploaded your Vampire Font. Since we talked the other day on your Horror Font, I have been really working on a new font...with Vampires being the way I wanted to go. Lucky for me, I wanted the letters to have a more fangy feel. I looked at your font, and loved it, but refused to look too closely because I didn't want to accidentally be inspired by your awesomeness. 
Thank you for your kind words!

You know, I was worried you might do a vampire font, when you mentioned working on one. I thought to name mine something else, but I honestly could not think of what to name mine. LOL! The *only* thing that came to mind was Pixel Apocalypse, but it didn't look like a zombie font at all. So, I struggled and said, "oh well" and hoped for the best. I would have never thought of "creeper."
Honestly, calling it "Creeper" is very appropriate. It has that tall, creepy feeling to it. I wasn't kidding when I fainted. I think this is amazing. I think between the two of us (and throw Bliss in there) we have the horror pixel fonts covered.
Also, don't worry about fonts looking similar. That's a big "problem" with pixel fonts. Because of the small sizing, you'll find many fonts look similar, even if not deliberate. Honestly, that is a problem with traditional fonts, too, especially when getting into the book-type lettering.
Ah well.

Well, originally I wanted it to be very vampire....but I knew I wanted to enter this contest with a font, so I started to lean toward something more zombie-ish. This doesn't feel quite like a zombie font, but pretty close, so I was really happy when I thought of the name "Creeper". I was also inspired by the Thriller song and how the dancing almost looks like creeping.
And yes, horror fonts...my fort(e with the hashmark to make it sound "ay"). I am thinking I should branch out now, trying something a little less spooky and predictable.
Yeah, I noticed a few of our letters looked pretty close, but I chalked that up to the size of our canvas. You can only get so creative with a small space and, say, the letter "h".
