gravity falls was a Disney show with all sorts of twists and turns along the way
with weird plot shenanigans and a cast of lovable yet eccentric characters it's
no wonder the cartoon develops such a huge fan base that continues to grow
even three years after its final episode but as weird as the show itself is what
if we were able to tell you that there are some theories that if true would
make it even weirder last bus leaving gravity falls all aboard
I'm Teresa Apple with a wicked binge and these are gravity falls theories that
will weird you out let's get started hey sister guess who gets to vote in the
future Sue's dad never wrote any of those postcards Sue's dad never actually
appears in any episode of gravity falls in fact he's not even given a name aside
from mr. Ramirez all we know of the guy is that Sue's hasn't seen him since he
was four and so he sends him a postcard every year on his birthday it's for my
dad actually I haven't seen him in like eight years these postcards say that
he's sorry he couldn't make it this year for his birthday
but he'll be sure to see him next year a promise he never lives up to this is
pretty rough for poor Sue's he clearly misses out on having a father figure in
his life this is obvious from him latching on to
the imaginary figure Ernesto in Mable land as a surrogate ideal father since
he doesn't even remember what his dad looks like anymore you don't remember
what I look like so I had the body of a pro wrestler however what's even rougher
to think about is how it's possible Sue's dad never even wrote the postcards
it's entirely possible that in actuality Sue's have you letter Sousa Lolita
writes the postcards I vacuumed though honest now each year Sue's invites his
father to his birthday party in the hopes that this will be the year he'll
show up but every year he said Willie that knows that he won't and that Sue's
will be disappointed so she secretly has been raving these
postcards and having them delivered to Sue's when it becomes clear that his
father isn't gonna show up again to ease some of his disappointment it's a
depressing theory on the surface but it's also nice to
think that Cirie's at least has that walidah who cares for him still this one
definitely tugs at your heartstrings this is not good
I cannot read such a big family Mabel has a doppelganger named Liam she has
appeared in several episodes in Mabel's place Mabel and her quirky antics are
the highlight of gravity falls but what if who we see isn't always
Mabel there's a theory floating around that Mabel actually has a doppelganger
named Liam and she's actually appeared in
several episodes carpeted amazing the theory suggests that Gideon around the
time he asked Mabel to visit for a makeover
used a spell from book two to make a doppelganger of her as a fallback
girlfriend
taking a sample of her hair and her llama hair sweater he creates
Leoben who he then parades around town and has photograph for the newspaper
eventually Lee boom comes to Mabel who agrees to hide her they share clothes
and frequently swap places so Liam can live some semblance of a normal life if
this theory sounds incredibly far-fetched to you just consider these
clues found by the sku on YouTube that seem to point to the theory having some
truth in it for one in the episode the inconveniencing maple is shown to be
writing with her right hand this wouldn't be suspicious only she's
also clearly shown writing with her left hand in the episodes of boss Mabel the
simple explanation for this would be that she's actually ambidextrous or it's
an animation error but what if there's something more to it another piece of
evidence that points to something fishy going on is in fight fighters Mabel is
shown to have acrophobia or a fear of heights but in Little Dipper when she's
flying an escape from Gideon's house she shows no fear did she simply get over
her phobia in such a short space of time or it's something foul at play there
have certainly been weirder things in the show than a little switcheroo from
time to time the real reason behind grunkle Stan's greed
this theory is an old one originally posed by Davin Tex on reddit it states
that the real reason grunkle Stan is so greedy and obsessed with money is
because he's actually trying to buy as much gold as he can I want an only dream
which was to possess money has come true there's a few quotes to support the
importance of gold in the series such as bill cipher saying remember reality is
an illusion the universe is a hologram buy gold buy names bill cipher in a
conversation with Robbie grunkle Stan himself also asks you've been buying
gold right with interest dipper also finds magazines titled gold
chains for old men with grunkle Stan stuff so what's with the obsession with
gold it's possible that gold feels the portal in the bunker but that doesn't
fully explain why he mentions it to Robbie
instead it sounds like buying gold is a suggestion or possibly a need for
something that may happen in the future gravity falls is known for commonly
making fun of survivalists and to the spirits II theorists something that Alex
Hirsch its creator has an obvious interest in if we take his new upcoming
series for Netflix about conspiracy theories into consideration it's
possible this is another gag at the kind of survivalists who believe gold will
remain valuable after society collapses and currency is rendered worthless and
therefore stock pilot for the future could grunkle Stan be one of these
people document for the apocalypse doodly-doo we're all gonna die and why
would bill cipher mention it it sounds like a weird thing for him to come out
with however it's entirely possible he just has a
knack for hunting out these survivalist types and maybe gets a kick out of
making fun of them or leading them on it definitely sounds like the kind of wacky
antics he'd be up to this theory is a little older and since its original
conception it was revealed that grunkle Stan is
because he was kicked out of his house by his father until he became rich
however that doesn't necessarily disprove this theory about him
collecting gold either still we're thinking about Stan actually married
Carla McCorkle Carla McCorkle sometimes known as hot pants is grunkle Stan's
former girlfriend according to stand she dumped him in favor of a hippie called
thistledown and that was the end of it but what if there's more to the story
than just a short love affair this theory goes that they didn't simply have
a relationship they were actually married and the story about her being
hypnotized by Thistle was only a partial truth or an outright lie the grunkle
Stan claims he's only ever been divorced once to Marilyn whom he was married to
for only six hours this could still be true truth is I've been divorced once
and slapped more times than I can remember after all he faked his own
death by driving his car off a cliff before assuming his brother's identity
since he was legally dead he didn't divorce Carla
he just widowed her this explains how he could possibly have a child who shares
his last name did he marry Carla and then abandon her with a child and is
that why he feels guilty enough to make a whole fake story up about it also
something rather depressing to consider Carla McCorkle returned all his flowers
could be a reference to her line flowers on the grave grunkle Stan was never in
that's actually really dark gravity falls attracts weirdness in part because
of a hallucinogenic environment if you've listened this far it's safe to
say you realize that gravity falls is a very weird show and these theories just
make it even weirder I hope someone didn't die yes that would be awful but
this theory might have the explanation behind all of the eccentric things going
on in the show captain Kade an adult on reddit suggests
in this theory that the real reason gravity falls is so we
is rooted in the fact that it exists in a hallucinogenic environment and when
they say rooted they really mean rooted specifically they're talking about
mycelium can have to a fully functioning root system it's job is to stretch out
and get nutrients for the fungus now you might be wondering what this has to do
with gravity falls well ask anyone who's been to northern Oregon where the show
is set and they'll tell you that the damp heaving forested environment is a
perfect breeding ground for mushrooms if you watch very closely you'll see the
show has a number of red spotted mushrooms in each episode though these
may simply look like your average cartoon mushroom there's more to it than
that there Amanita muscaria commonly known as
fly agaric these mushrooms have psychedelic properties that can cause a
sense of spiritual and supernatural occurrence if you take them hence their
common use in cartoons to represent gnomes fairies and other supernatural
creatures is this weird it's just too weird you need to sit down now the show
has a fair number of gnomes and supernatural creatures itself therefore
it is possible the entire town is built on some cluster of these mushrooms after
all these giant clusters of mushrooms aren't uncommon in Oregon the largest is
a two-mile stretch of honey fungus in the Blue Mountains if so it's entirely
possible that the citizens and native inhabitants of the area have been micro
dosing on these hallucinogens for their entire lives dipper Mabel who only our
hive as guests are likely highly susceptible anyway seeing as they're
children this could definitely lead to the town's
folk vividly supernatural and just plain weird experiences that would explain a
lot of the plot shenanigans in the show does this make the weird happenings of
gravity falls less real not necessarily it's still entirely possible that bill
cipher can only infiltrate the minds of the people and gravity falls because
their brain Jayne's are already weakened by the
prolonged use of hallucinogens - now that's creepy I'd fire all of you if I
could but what do you think do any of these crazy theories about gravity falls
make sense do you have any theories of your own let us know in the comments
