Glitch Text Generator — cursed, corrupted and Zalgo text

Type your text and choose a distortion level

Everything you type is converted live. The distortion level decides how many combining marks each letter carries, and the three checkboxes decide where those marks go: above the letter, straight through the middle, or below the baseline. Turn the middle marks off if you want something that still reads cleanly in a username.

All four levels at once

36 ready-made glitch styles

Each style below is a fixed recipe: a set of marks, a count and a placement. They are named so you can come back to the one you liked instead of hunting for it again. Every block updates with whatever you typed above, so you can scan all thirty-six versions of your own word and copy the one that fits. The light styles stay legible; the heavy ones are meant to be unreadable on purpose.

Cursed alphabets: A–Z in 6 corrupted sets

Sometimes a full Zalgo stack is too much and you only want letters that look wrong. These six sets give you the whole alphabet, one character at a time. The first three and the last use a single combining mark each, so they are compact enough for a display name. The currency set and the upside-down set use no combining marks at all — they are substituted letters borrowed from other Unicode blocks, which means they survive in places that strip diacritics.

Click a letter to copy it, then build your word letter by letter. If you want the same idea applied to whole sentences automatically, the fancy text generator converts entire lines into other Unicode alphabets in one click.

Oblique strike — A̸B̸C̸

Combining long solidus overlay (U+0338) — a diagonal slash driven through every letter.

Double strike — A̶B̶C̶

Combining long stroke overlay (U+0336) — the classic struck-out cursed alphabet.

Combining underline — A̲B̲C̲

Combining low line (U+0332) — an unbroken underline that survives copy and paste.

Currency and look-alike glyphs — ₳฿₵

Real letters from other Unicode blocks that read as corrupted capitals — no combining marks at all.

Upside down — ∀ᗺƆ

Rotated look-alikes. Reverse the order of the letters yourself to read the word backwards.

Tilde strike — A̴B̴C̴

Combining tilde overlay (U+0334) — a wave through the middle of each letter.

Ready-made cursed usernames and bio lines

Thirty short lines already glitched at a light or medium level, which is the range that survives on most platforms. Use them as they are for a display name, or as the first line of a bio. They are deliberately short: the fewer letters you corrupt, the more of the effect survives truncation.

Clean glitch text: remove the combining marks

The reverse tool. Paste a corrupted message here and every combining mark is stripped out, leaving the base letters exactly as they were typed. This is the only reliable way to read a Zalgo message someone sent you, and it is also useful before pasting text into a form that would reject the marks. Substituted letters — the currency and upside-down sets — are real characters, not marks, so they are left untouched by design.
