What Is Glitch Text?

Glitch text—sometimes referred to as Zalgo text or distorted text—is a visual effect where characters appear corrupted by layering diacritics and Unicode symbols around the letters. It gives off a broken, eerie, or chaotic feel. This kind of text is commonly used in gaming forums, ARGs (alternate reality games), horror fiction, memes, and digital art.

The Glitch Text Generator works entirely in your browser. There's no software required. Just enter any word, phrase, or message, pick a glitch style, click Convert, and instantly copy your result for use anywhere.

Who Uses This?

The Glitchy Text Generator is a favorite among:

• Gamers — especially for horror-themed names or glitch-core gaming tags
• Content creators — for TikTok, YouTube thumbnails, and Discord messages
• Writers and devs — for creepypastas, ARG clues, and encrypted-looking clues
• Designers — who want a visual aesthetic that mimics broken software or corrupted files

Try entering a phrase like I am watching in Zalgo mode, and you'll get something like I̡͘ ̀͢͜͜a͘͏̨̛m̕͡ ̴͝w̴̕͠a̶͜͝t̛͜͠ć̨h̷̛i̴͢n̸͢g̢͝—a perfect match for a scary story, a Reddit r/Glitch_in_the_Matrix post, or even a hacker-themed alt name.

Pro Tips

• Use Corrupted Text Generator for more subtle degradation effects.
• Want symbols added? Combine it with Name to Symbols.
• For text that looks unstable or eerie in motion, consider using these styles in video overlays or TikTok captions.

Why Use Unicode for Glitch?

Unlike Photoshop effects, this glitch text is made of Unicode characters—meaning it works in text-only environments. You can copy it to Discord chats, Instagram bios, Twitch titles, or even rename your Wi-Fi network with it. No fonts to install. No scripts. Just pure copy and paste magic.
