What is a tombstone meme?
A tombstone meme borrows the look of a grave marker, with “Here lies” and a short epitaph, to announce the end of something trivial: a diet, a phone battery, a group chat. Epitaphs, the short texts carved on headstones, have a long tradition of wit, which is why the format reads instantly as a joke. The Tombstone Generator spells your exact words on the stone so the meme is ready to post.

Stone or Cartoon: which tombstone should I choose?
Stone is a realistic, weathered grey headstone in a misty old cemetery at dusk, engraved with “Here lies” and your text; it suits dry, deadpan jokes. Cartoon is a bright, thick-outlined tombstone on a green hill with a smiling ghost beside it, reading “RIP” and your text; it suits stickers and group chats.

Frequently asked questions
Your first image on LeafReel is free, so your first tombstone costs nothing and carries a LeafReel watermark. Buy any credit pack and that same image unlocks as the original file without the watermark. Each tombstone after that costs 20 credits.
Open the Tombstone Generator, pick Stone or Cartoon, type what lies here and its last words, and select Create image. The AI engraves your exact words on the stone.
“Here lies my diet – it was brief”, “RIP my sleep schedule – gone too soon”, “Here lies my phone battery – it tried its best” and “RIP the group chat – nobody replied” are popular starting points.

Keep it kind. Light-hearted tombstones for a friend who is in on the joke are fine, but tombstones that mock, threaten or harass a real person are not allowed.
Each tombstone costs 20 credits after your free image. The $9.90 One Video pack has 600 credits, enough for 30 images; on Pro each works out to about $0.17.
