Gideon Charles Gleeful[1], better known by his stage name, 'Lil Gideon, is a self proclaimed, child psychic whose visions have made him famous. 'Lil Gideon claims he can read minds, predict the future, and talk to the dead in his Tent of Telepathy, a competitor of Grunkle Stan's Mystery Shack.
Character History
Season 1: June
Dipper and Mabel first learned about Gideon through an advertisement on the back of a newspaper in "The Legend of the Gobblewonker." They decide to test his authenticity as a psychic after seeing his TV commercial. They went to one of his shows even though Grunkle Stan forbade them from going due to Gideon causing him trouble. At the show, Gideon met Mabel and took a liking to her. He showed up at her house the next day and asked if she wanted to go to his dressing room so they could do makeovers which Mabel accepted. Gideon wanted to be more than friends with Mabel, but she didn't feel the same way, so she ended up breaking it off with him. Gideon believed it was because of Dipper, so he swore that he would get revenge on the entire Pines family. After he created a little playset of The Mystery Shack, planning revenge, later it was revealed that 'Lil Gideon has a similar book to the one Dipper has, but his book is titled 2. He also had an amulet that gave him his powers of telekinesis.[1]
Appearance
'Lil Gideon is a stout kid with white hair bigger than his head and acts much older than he seems. His appearance best resembles a pig. During most of the series he wears a baby blue suit, black shirt, American flag pin, and, formerly, a green amulet. That when he touches this amulet it glows and gives him special powers. It is later discovered that this amulet is featured in the book 2.
Personality
'Lil Gideon is a self-proclaimed television psychic whose real mission is to take down his competition, The Mystery Shack. He uses his "cuteness" to get what he wants and he admits that people have a hard time saying "no" to him because of it.
