Zalgo Text Generator
Generate creepy Zalgo text with overlapping diacritical characters. Control the intensity of the effect.
What is Zalgo text?
With the Zalgo effect, each character gets overlapping diacritics scattered at random above and below it through Unicode combining characters. What you end up with is that glitchy, creepy look.
Create creepy Zalgo text
You know that "glitched", somewhat disturbing effect where letters look like they're melting or bleeding under a cascade of symbols? That's Zalgo text. It comes from stacking diacritical characters over normal letters, and the tool handles all of that on its own for whatever text you throw at it.
The intensity is up to you, from a little messy to full chaos. The effect lives in memes, horror posts, digital art and social-media pranks. And because it uses real Unicode characters, Zalgo pastes into most platforms without losing that creepy look.
Everything is generated in the browser, ready to copy. The usual warning applies: these stacked characters break screen readers and mess up layouts, so save it for fun and visual effect.
