Zalgo and Glitch Text Generator

Turn normal text into chaotic, glitchy Zalgo text covered in stacked combining marks. Zalgo works by layering diacritical marks above, below and through each character, which creates that unsettling corrupted or cursed look popular in horror-themed posts, edgy usernames and creative captions. Use the intensity slider to go from a light glitch to a fully overloaded mess, and choose whether the marks stack above, below or both. The output is still real text made of Unicode combining characters, so you can copy and paste it into most social apps and chats. Everything is generated in your browser, so it is instant and private, and you can regenerate for a fresh random distortion any time.

How to use Zalgo and Glitch Text Generator

  1. Type the text to glitch.
  2. Adjust the intensity slider.
  3. Preview the distorted result.
  4. Copy and paste the glitch text.
