The replaceRange in line 37 should be recalculated, as slugalizedString may be shorter than the original string. If the original string ends in a non-ascii character, it crashes at line 35

Hi thanks for this. I fixed the range issue in my fork if you would like to update.

Should do
replaceRange = NSMakeRange(0, slugalizedString.length);
after all stringByReplacingMatchesInString
