Gravity Falls is an American animated television series created by Alex Hirsch for Disney Channel and Disney XD. The series revolves around the various antics of two fraternal twins, Dipper (voiced by Jason Ritter) and Mabel Pines (voiced by Kristen Schaal), who were sent to stay with their great-uncle (or "Grunkle") Stan (voiced by Hirsch) in the town of Gravity Falls, Oregon, for the summer. They soon realize that the town holds plenty of secrets, after Dipper comes across an old journal which documents the anomalies of the town.[1]
