Still, if you are wondering then Let me tell you that, when Zalgo text is generated through the shape and fonts it gives an idea that while generates due to glitch or lag, the text was not properly generated. Apart from Glitch text, Zalgo text has some other names too which we will see in another section of the article.

In order to give it creepy look, the generators use a special type of script in which normal characters are mixed with Unicode standard. All those multiple characters are displayed in the space of a single character and due to this Zalgo text appears scary to the viewers and unknown persons.
Talking about the generation of Zalgo text, While mixing the Unicode standards with normal characters, developers use a proper strategy to do so. They basically arrange the Unicode standards above and below the space character and doesn’t allow the Unicode characters to acquire more space then the base characters as a result text appears messy.
