This browser-based utility generates distorted Zalgo text from your Unicode text. All characters that you paste or enter in the input text area on the left side automatically get destroyed by Zalgo and its friend Cthulhu on the right side. The utility supports all Unicode symbols and it works with emoji characters. You can destroy the top, middle, and bottom parts of the input data and adjust the damage level. Created by encoding gurus from team Browserling.
This utility releases the chaotic hivemind Zalgo from its titanium cage and lets it destroy your Unicode data. Zalgo is an ominous creature that wants to cause disorder, chaos, and the destruction of the world. On the Internet, it's always associated with creepy and distorted text on web pages. Zalgo generator is also known as Zalgo destructor, cursed letter generator, and glitch creator. It uses Unicode combining characters to create symbol noise. Combining symbols, also known as diacritic marks, are small glyphs that are added to basic Unicode glyphs. For example, the French letter "à" consists of the regular letter "a" plus a combining mark "◌̀". What do you think happens if we try to add more than one diacritic mark to it? For example, if we add two more marks above, such as "◌̂" and "◌̃", we get "à̂̃". We also can add some marks below, "◌̯", "◌̤", and in the middle, "◌̸", and get "à̸̯̤̂̃". By adding a wide variety of combining characters to basic letters, you can get corrupted and glitchy Zalgo text. In this tool, you can control the destruction process in several ways. In particular, you can decide which part of the text to turn into chaos – the top, bottom, or middle. You can control the destruction level by specifying the minimum and maximum number of dialectic marks to add to each letter. You can also let Zalgo create partial or total chaos. In the partial chaos, the same combining mark is repeated for all levels of destruction for every letter. In the total chaos, random combining marks are used every time. At last, you can also use our useful function that protects all spaces, tabs, and newlines from Zalgo's impact.
In this example, we asked Zalgo to make the simple word "Halloween" really scary and creepy. He cursed each letter from above and below by adding 5 to 20 combining characters to them. He used total chaos function for it and chose new random diacritic marks for each destruction level.
In this example, Zalgo and his evil friend Cthulhu were so impressed with the quote that they decided not to destroy it completely. They used the same combining character on every destruction levels and added exactly 5 marks to each symbol. They also destroyed only the bottom part of the text and created a scary shadow effect under the letters.
This example was attacked by Zalgo. He wreaked havoc on the input text and distorted all letters. He spared neither the top, nor the bottom, nor the middle of the text and left behind total disorder, consisting of countless combining characters.
