Glitch Text Generator
A glitch text generator stacks Unicode marks on your letters to make cursed, corrupted looking text. Type something below, set the intensity, and copy the result into any post or chat. It is plain text, and everything runs in your browser.

How the glitch effect works
| Control | What it does |
|---|---|
| What it makes | Real Unicode combining marks stacked on each letter, so the result is plain copyable text, not an image. |
| Intensity | Controls roughly how many marks stack on each character. Low is a light glitch, high is heavily cursed. |
| Top, middle, bottom | Turn each band of marks on or off to build the exact look you want. |
| Regenerate | Re-rolls the random marks for a fresh version of the same text and settings. |
| Where it may break | Some apps trim combining marks or limit how tall text can be, so heavy glitch text can look lighter there. |
How to use it
1. Type your text
Enter a word or phrase to glitch.
2. Set the look
Drag the intensity slider and toggle the top, middle, and bottom marks.
3. Copy it
Use Regenerate for a different roll, then copy the result into any post or chat.
Common questions
What is glitch or Zalgo text?
Glitch text, often called Zalgo text, is normal text with many Unicode combining marks stacked above, through, and below each letter. Those marks are the same accents used in many languages, just layered far past normal use, which gives the creepy, corrupted look. Because it is built from standard characters, it stays plain text you can copy and paste.
Will glitch text work everywhere?
It works in most places that accept Unicode, including many social and chat apps. Some apps strip or limit combining marks to keep layouts tidy, so the effect can appear lighter or be removed there. If it looks flat in one app, lower the intensity or try another app.
Can I control how intense the effect is?
Yes. The intensity slider sets roughly how many marks stack on each character, and the top, middle, and bottom toggles choose which bands appear. Regenerate re-rolls the random marks, so you can keep rolling until you like the result.
Does my text leave my device?
No. The effect is generated in your browser with plain JavaScript. Nothing you type is sent to a server, so the tool keeps working the same way even after the page has loaded and you go offline.
