By Fontique EditorialPublished Updated
The Stranger Things title is a custom treatment of ITC Benguiat, a 1970s phototype serif you license from Monotype — that is the file people mean when they ask what font the show uses. Fontique does not redistribute Benguiat or the series logo. This generator renders your own name as an original 80s horror-paperback title: tall condensed red serifs, glowing outlines, letters stretching toward each other, neon bloom on black.
Presets explore the era. Red Glow is the classic outlined serif with bloom, Cold Blue flips the palette into icy light with floating particles, VHS Tape adds tracking lines and tape grain, Paperback Cover sets your name in embossed foil on a worn cover, and Neon Arcade goes hot pink and cyan.
Use it for 80s birthday invitations, watch-party posters, Halloween graphics, and retro profile banners. Download the full title artwork as PNG or JPEG. Fan-made, not affiliated with the series.

No. The series title is a custom treatment of ITC Benguiat, which we do not host or reproduce. This generator renders your words as an original 80s horror-paperback PNG — inspired by the era, not a copy of the logo.
Yes. Images you generate are yours to use, and the retro horror style is fine for invitations, posters, and commercial work. The series name, logo, and characters are trademarks of their owner, so do not use the name as a brand or imply an official product.
Quick offers experimental transparent PNG in the studio. Transparency has been checked on two low-quality 1K examples, not separately on every style; smoke, glow, and fine detail can leave semi-transparent edges. Standard and Pro currently retain a background, and image edits do not preserve transparency. For predictable transparent lettering with bundled font shapes, use Text to PNG at /tools/text-to-png. It creates new text graphics and does not remove backgrounds from AI images.
Not from Fontique — we do not host font files. The free “Stranger Things fonts” on font sites are fan recreations of ITC Benguiat, so check their licenses before commercial use; the real Benguiat is a paid Monotype/Adobe font you can type with in Word or Figma. If you only need the title as an image, render it here: free credits on sign-up, then 100 credits per Standard PNG.
That effect is part of the base style, and it works best with two words on separate lines or a single long word. Type your text in all caps, keep it under fifteen characters, and use the 16:9 ratio so the tall letters fill the frame.

What this is based on
A letterform shape is not copyrightable in the United States, but the font file that draws it and the brand name that uses it can still be protected — so Fontique renders original lettering as images and never redistributes a typeface.
