What is glitch text?

Glitch text, or zalgo, is ordinary text with marks stacked on its letters. Unicode keeps more than a hundred marks for accents, the grave of à or the tilde of ñ, and nothing stops one letter from carrying ten of them: they pile up over it, under it and through it until the line looks torn by a broken screen. Every font here is real text, so it pastes anywhere text goes.

Over 100 glitch fonts are on this page, from a light flicker to a full zalgo storm, plus static, scratches and a corrupted screen around your words.

How to make glitch text

  1. Type your words into the field at the top.
  2. Every font below breaks them in its own way: marks rising or dripping, scratches across the letters, or all of it at once.
  3. Tap Copy beside the one you like and paste it.

Kinds of glitch text

  • Glitch text: a mark or a few over and under each letter, still easy to read.
  • Zalgo text: the heavy kind, marks in every direction until the words sink under them.
  • Rising and dripping glitch: marks only above, as if the letters leaked upward, or only below, as if they melted.
  • Scratched glitch: strokes and slashes drawn across the letters.
  • Cursed text: blackletter, upside-down and mirrored letters buried in marks; more dark lettering is on our page of the Old English font.
  • Corrupted and hacker text: static ░ between the letters, a broken screen ▓▒░ around them, a terminal’s prompt before them.
  • Glitch fonts: letters borrowed from other scripts, ΛBᄃ or ᗩᗷᑕ, lightly glitched; every other style is among our copy and paste fonts.

Where zalgo text comes from

The name comes from a joke of 2004 on the Something Awful forums, where a member posted cartoon strips whose characters slowly broke apart in glitches and cried out “Zalgo!”. Their torn lettering became the look of internet horror stories, and zalgo text has meant cursed, glitched writing ever since.

Where glitch text works

  • Messages, comments, bios and display names on Discord, TikTok, Instagram and most chats usually keep the marks.
  • A username almost never does: it takes plain letters, numbers and a few signs only.
  • Some apps trim long stacks of marks, so a heavy glitch may come out lighter than it looks here.
  • Screen readers stumble over the marks, so keep glitch text away from anything people must read.

Questions

Why is Zalgo text banned?

Because a few lines of it spill over everything around them: the marks stack past their line into the text above and below, and very long ones slow an app down. So many sites, games and chats cap how many marks a letter may carry, or strip them.

Is Zalgo text safe?

Yes. It is plain Unicode, letters and accent marks with no code in them; at worst it makes a page messy. Screen readers struggle with it, though, so it does not belong in anything people need to read.

How do I make Zalgo text?

Type your words into the field at the top and copy any row: each letter gets its marks as you type. Cursed and heavy glitch are the strongest kinds.

Is Zalgo text allowed in Roblox?

Not in a username, which takes only letters, numbers and one underscore. In chat, Roblox’s filter may hide it, so a light glitch has the best chance.

What is the difference between glitch text and zalgo text?

Hardly any: zalgo is glitch text at its heaviest. A light glitch adds a mark or two to each letter; zalgo piles on so many that the words disappear.

Does glitch text work on Discord?

In messages, your bio and your display name, yes. Your username takes only lowercase letters, numbers, periods and underscores, so it stays plain.
