Ever. I don’t want to do this anymore. Things have gotten too much out of hand, and I can’t control the events I’ve started. Everything is my fault. I’m sorry. I did a detailed analysis in the previous projects, about what was going on. But I’ve had this bad feeling for a long time and I haven’t addressed this in previous projects. Something sinister is going on behind closed doors, and I doubt it came from the show. I’ve done my best to research the ‘behind the scenes’ of Gravity Falls, but it hasn’t done much for me other than prove what we already know. It’s true that Alex Hirsch based the show off his own personal experiences, but only to a certain extent. Certainly not as much as we previously thought. The thing is, if Gravity Falls happened in real life, why would Dipper and Mabel and everyone else want us to find Bill’s statue? Shouldn’t they be keeping something as dangerous as this hidden, so that no one can ever shake his hand again? And even if they didn’t exist, Alex would have made sure that the participants in the Alternate Reality Game wouldn’t have been able to shake Bill’s hand, possibly by wrapping it in a plastic bag to discourage it. I think there must have been something I missed, so I went back to look at the items found in the Cipher Hunt. One such photo is displayed in the project you are currently viewing, press space to switch between the sides. The photo looks quite ordinary at first. It’s just the Pines family and Soos posing around Bill’s statue, except for a sinister twist. When you shine a blacklight onto the drawing, it reveals the invisible ink. Everyone’s eyes are glowing demonically, and there are eyelashes drawn onto Bill’s statue. But… why? I can understand if it’s the villains who are receiving this treatment. But why the heroes? They’re the ones who are least likely to hurt us! Right? I feel like I’m missing something, so let’s forget everything that we’ve learned so far from the show. Instead, let’s just focus on Bill’s backstory. He’s an inter-dimensional dream demon who wishes to take over the world. And, where does he get his power? Here’s the exact quote I found from his Reddit page, after someone asked him about the best way to defeat enemies: TEAM UP WITH ME. INCREASING MY POWER IS EASY AND ANYONE CAN DO IT! JUST DRAW MY FORM ANYWHERE IN YOUR HUMAN WORLD- EACH IMAGE OF ME ACTS A PEEPHOLE FROM MY DIMENSION TO YOURS. THE MORE I SEE, THE MORE I KNOW. THE MORE I KNOW, THE GREATER MY POWER. THE GREATER MY POWER, THE MORE ENEMIES OF YOURS I CAN CRUSH. JUST SHAKE MY HAND. You know what he said, right? I’ve addressed this earlier on, I know. I originally passed this off as Alex trying to scare us. He does that all the time, I don’t even know if he’s the 100% reliable source I thought he was. But that message has got some pretty terrifying implications. I don’t think I need to explain this. You readers are smart enough to know what’s going on. But back to that Cipher Hunt photo. What does it mean? The answer may have been right under our nose the whole time, and we’ve completely overlooked it. Think about the opening jingle for every Gravity Falls episode ever. Remember that Gravity Falls logo we were treated to at the end? Well, there’s a piece of text that reads ‘Created by Alex Hirsch’ that was present for every episode… until the last. Why the last? Because of Weirdmaggedon, of course. Because it got corrupted by Bill. Now, here’s another point that you may or may not have noticed. In that corrupted version, the name ‘Alex Hirsch’ is replaced by ‘Bill Cipher’. But… why? Shouldn’t there be copyright laws against that or something? I’m going to propose a new theory that may not make sense at first, but will when you think about it. What if Bill Cipher was the true creator of Gravity Falls? I know that I’m being stupid and paranoid. So much has happened that I feel like I’m really, really paranoid now. Honestly don’t feel safe anymore, even in my own apartment where no one can see me. I feel like I’m being watched, sometimes I wake up at 3am and can’t get back to sleep. But back to the point. We're focusing on his backstory in the next part, because I'm out of words now. Apologies for how long it took, it was a bit longer than I expected it to be. .
