Cursed Text Generator

Cursed text, also called Zalgo text, looks as if the letters were melting or possessed: marks pile up above and below every letter and cut through it. It is made with combining characters, the marks Unicode has for accents, such as the acute in é. A letter may carry any number of them, and when dozens are stacked, they climb out of the line into the text above and below. The generator adds random marks, chosen from 113 of them, to every letter of your text, so each click on “Generate new” gives a different result, and the text stays readable underneath.

Choose the strength: “Light” adds a few marks and keeps the text readable, “Heavy” buries it. Turn the marks “Above the letters”, “Through the letters” and “Below the letters” on or off: the marks through the letters make the text the hardest to read. Cursed text is used for horror memes, creepypasta, Halloween posts and gamer names. Some sites and apps limit the number of marks or remove them, and screen readers read them out as noise, so don't use cursed text for anything people must read. If you paste cursed text into the field, its old marks are removed first.
