Zalgo glitch text generator

Make your text look haunted. This zalgo text generator piles Unicode accent marks above and around each letter to create the famous glitch or creepy text effect — perfect for Halloween posts, horror game names, memes and dramatic captions. Control how wild it gets with the slider, regenerate for a different pattern, and copy it into Instagram, WhatsApp, Discord or anywhere that supports Unicode. You can also paste zalgo text and clean it back to normal.

How to use it

  1. Type your text and choose the glitch intensity.
  2. Tap Regenerate until you like the look.
  3. Copy and paste it anywhere.

Example

“Happy Halloween” at a medium setting gets 2–8 marks per letter — glitchy but still readable. At the maximum it becomes a towering tangle that overflows the line. Pair it with emojis like 👻🎃, or try upside-down text for another eye-catching style.

Frequently asked questions

What is zalgo text?
Text with many Unicode “combining marks” stacked above and below each letter, making it look glitchy, creepy or corrupted. It became popular as an internet meme and for spooky Halloween posts.
Will it work on Instagram and WhatsApp?
Yes, it’s ordinary Unicode, so you can paste it into most apps. Very heavy glitching may be clipped or trimmed by some apps, so lower the intensity if it looks cut off.
How do I remove zalgo from text?
Paste the glitchy text and tap “Clean up” — all combining marks are stripped, leaving the original letters.
Is it safe to use?
Yes, but use it sparingly: screen readers can’t read it properly, so it’s not suitable for important information, usernames others need to type, or accessibility-sensitive places.
