Zalgo / Cursed Text Generator
Zalgo text — also called cursed or glitch text — stacks combining marks above and below each letter so your words look corrupted and chaotic. It's a Halloween favourite and a great way to make a spooky username or post stand out.
Choose a mild, medium or intense level and copy the result. Heads up: extreme Zalgo can be filtered or truncated by some platforms.
Start typing above to see your text in hundreds of styles.
Frequently asked questions
Why does Zalgo text look glitchy?
It uses Unicode combining diacritics — the same marks used for accents — but stacks many of them on one character, which overflows into the lines above and below.
Is Zalgo text safe to paste?
Yes, it's just text. But some sites limit combining characters, so very intense Zalgo may be shortened or blocked.
