The Zalgo Text Generator is a browser-based free online tool that converts your standard text into glitch text.
The Zalgo Text is the Glitchy form of standard text. With a Glitch Text Generator, you can make the text for Instagram, Tumblr, Twitter, Facebook, Discord, TikTok, etc.
If you look into its meaning, the glitch is a minor/small lived fault that prevents something from being successful or causes the system to stop working. Compared to the severe bug (which is a genuine and functionality breaking problem), the glitch is a minor/small and temporary fault.
That term is mostly used in computing and electronic industries.
What is Zalgo (Glitch) Text?
In simple words, Zalgo (Glitch) Text is the corrupted form of the standard text. You mostly see that text on Facebook, Twitter, and other social media platforms. It is also called Corrupted Text/Scary Text or Demonic Text because of its unusual appearance.

In the past, the ASCII system was used to represent the number of computers, which was only limited to the English language. But it was replaced with the Unicode system because it allows you to assign a code to every character in each language. Zalgo text works by combining the multiple characters at a single character space. These are special characters that connect with the character that comes before.
That format of the text is with time gaining importance. You can see that text on the majority of the Facebook profiles. That text format appeals because it looks like that characters are falling apart, they are messed up, and there are some printing mistakes. That makes the characters a "corrupted text."
Today, people are using different ways to attract people or to get people's attention. When you share any post on social media or start advertising, your motive is to attract as many users as possible. Using a unique writing format that looks different but recognizable is one of several ways to attract users and customers. That increases your engagement, and people start to share your post within their social circle. That helps in getting more user engagement.
From the text form, you can better understand that it is not easy to create that text because it seems like corrupted text because of its appearance. However, dozens of online tools are available that can convert your standard text into Zalgo (Glitch) Text.
To use the online tool, perform the following steps.
