Gravity Falls

One of the most iconic symbols used in the cult - Graeco-Roman series , Gravity Falls , is the motion sucker which acts as the logo for theMystery Shack – and now fans know on the button why that is ( spoiler : it ’s not what fans think ) .

Gravity Fallsfeatures the paranormal risky venture of Dipper and Mabel as they appease with their corking uncle Stan for the summer in Gravity Falls , Oregon . While on the surface , Gravity Falls may seem like a unruffled little township , that could n’t be further from the true statement . In world , Gravity Falls is home to some of the strangest creatures and occurrences in the world , and Dipper and Mabel had to face off against nearly all of them . Luckily , in the very first instalment , Dipper found a daybook that hold in handwritten info about all the weird thing in Gravity Falls , which helped the pre - teenage twins survive every one of their adventures . What ’s hilarious aboutGravity Fallsis that , for how actual and dangerous the seemingly sleepy town is , the one place that is called ‘ The Mystery Shack ’ is a complete sham . As fans learn in the first sequence , Grunkle Stan runs a tourist ambush out of his house called the Mystery Shack where he props up obviously bogus ‘ supernatural creature ’ and sell overpriced merchandise – and all over that merch ( as well as prominently displayed all over the hut itself ) is the familiar yet funnily eerie doubt mark .

The Mystery Shack’s Question Marks Remind Stan of his Lost Brother, Ford

The question mark was the paint to solve Stan ’s first enigma with his brother , Ford , so it makes sensation that it would become a symbol that meant a big deal to him . Asestablished in theGravity Fallsshow , Stan and Ford made plans as kid to grow up , get a gravy boat , and voyage around the world together – and Stan held onto that promise all the way into adulthood while Ford moved on with his life in pursuit of scientific discipline and discovery . After a tragic event where Ford come through a vena portae into the immense multiverse right in front of Stan ( something that was kind of Stan ’s fault ) , Stan twist Ford ’s laboratory into the Mystery Shack and keep open up with Ford ’s technology until he could figure out a fashion to get him back . Meanwhile , in the very station where he fall back Ford , Stan expose countless head marks , all of which presumably reminded him of the happy time in his life with the brother he lose .

While it is obvious that a place namedtheMystery Shackwould have question markslittering the store , this propose account collapse a deep meaning to the symbolization that links back to Grunkle Stan ’s source with Ford – and if there is one serial that use symbolisation to reveal hidden orphic ( no matter how personal ) it’sGravity Falls .
