Who is Grunkle Stan?

Grunkle Stan, short for “Great Uncle Stan,” is a beloved character from the Disney animated series Gravity Falls, which aired from 2012 to 2016.

Created by Alex Hirsch, the show follows twins Dipper and Mabel Pines as they spend the summer with their eccentric great-uncle, Stan Pines, in the mysterious town of Gravity Falls. Grunkle Stan is the owner of the “Mystery Shack,” a quirky tourist attraction filled with strange artifacts and dubious oddities, often designed to trick customers out of their money. Though he comes across as a grumpy, money-hungry conman, Stan has a hidden, caring side and genuinely loves his niece and nephew, often putting their safety and happiness above his own interests.

Stan’s character has a layered backstory that reveals he was once estranged from his twin brother, Ford Pines. This tension leads to significant plot developments, with the brothers eventually reuniting in a fight against supernatural forces in Gravity Falls. The show’s exploration of Stan’s past gives depth to his character, making him more than just comic relief.

Alex Hirsch, the creator of the show, voices Grunkle Stan. Hirsch’s portrayal of Stan brings a gruff, humorous charm that endears the character to fans, blending sarcasm with warmth and vulnerability.
