Del Taco Haunted Mansion Text

Yeah I had no idea which thread to put this in, but I have just realized that Del Taco is using the Haunted Mansion text for all of their sales and what not. Yeah its random. Thought I would just throw that out there. The text did originate from the Haunted Mansion right?

Here's a link of the website with the text:

Del Taco | GO BOLD or GO HOME

Yeah.

The font, you mean? It certainly looks similar.

Re: Del Taco Haunted Mansion Text

haha..i noticed that too a few weeks ago when I ate there. You especially see it in the "M". I wonder if they just downloaded the "Ravenscroft" font from the web.

I was hoping someone else would point that out! I keep staring at it every time we drive by it, and I wonder why they chose that font of all things >.<

Yeah I always drive by it on my way to school and always thought that I should post something about it here. And then I finally did when I had some time.

You guys are a bunch of font nerds.

Re: Del Taco Haunted Mansion Text

Now I find it interesting that some of the old Taco Bells used to have a *really* similar typeface on their signage -- and now Del Taco is using it. Maybe it's just a non-authentic "mexicanish" fast food restaurant trend?
