    Fontiqu▓e

Cursed text, creepy text, and Zalgo text describe the same family of decorative Unicode effects. Combining marks stack above, below, or through ordinary letters to create a corrupted appearance. This converter produces text you can copy, not a font file or image. Compare eight real outputs: Zalgo, Cursed Above, Cursed Below, Cursed Void, Demonic Gothic, Glitched Outline, Corrupted, and Static. Use the intensity slider from 1 to 5 to change the density of marks across these results. Start at 1 for a more readable caption; raise it for a dense horror treatment. All outputs update immediately in your browser without an account. Apps may reject or remove combining marks, and screen readers may announce them individually. Test your copied result in its destination and keep important information in plain text. If you need a consistent image for a poster or thumbnail, use a PNG lettering tool instead.

FAQ

Cursed Text Generator FAQ

Cursed text, also called Zalgo text, is ordinary text with many Unicode combining marks attached to each letter. Those marks were designed to add accents, but stacked dozens deep they overflow above and below the line. The cursed text generator adds them automatically at the intensity you choose.

What this is based on

Styled Unicode letters were encoded for mathematics, not for bios — which is exactly why support varies by app and why some letters arrive as boxes.

The use of these alphabets to simulate styled text appearance in plain text environments is an unintended side effect. Putting these alphabets in Plane 1 rather than in Plane 0 was meant to discourage people from using these characters in this way.
