Revision as of 13:37, 5 October 2014

"Little Gift Shop of Horrors" is the sixth episode in the second season of Gravity Falls, the 26th episode overall, and the second Halloween special of the series. It is set to premiere on October 4, 2014.

Official overview

In three separate mysterious tales, Stan is cursed by a Witch, Waddles accidentally eats a bowl of brain-enhancing jelly and builds a machine that allows him to speak for the first time, and Mabel faces her fear of Claymotion.[4]

Synopsis

The episode begins with Stan welcoming a lone traveler into the Mystery Shack. He tells them these three stories to get the lone traveler to want to buy some of his merchandise:

Hands Off - Stan steals a gold watch from a witch while he, Dipper and Mabel visit the local vendor's market. The witch curses Stan, and he wakes up without hands the next morning. After he suffers without hands, Dipper, Mabel and Stan visit the witch's secret hideout in a mountain cave. Her hundreds of hands attack them, but eventually they make a deal to give her cave a makeover if she gives Stan his hands back. The witch loves the makeover and gives Stan his hands back. After they leave, a mountain climber meets the witch and she flirts with him using a book Mabel gave her. 

The Abaconing - Dipper is frustrated with a new puzzle toy that he got, so he finds a magical mushroom in the forest that gives whoever touches or eats it a genius mind. Dipper grinds the mushroom and smears it on his forehead. After the twins go to bed, Waddles wakes up and eats the grinded mushroom powder off of Dipper's forehead. The next morning, Waddles is now a genius and he builds many inventions to help discover the mysteries of the universe. However, Mabel is now lonely without him and Waddles decides that he is better off being Mabel's friend than being a genius. Waddles therefore drains his brain-power and destroys the machine. 

Clay Day - After watching a movie that Mabel enjoys but everyone else is bored with, Stan puts in an old film. To Mabel's dismay, the film has claymation, which Mabel is horrified of. She goes and hides in the laundry room until Stan decides to take everyone to the house of the man who made the film to prove claymation is harmless. The filmaker's house is old and abandoned, and Stan, Dipper, Mabel and Soos soon discover that it has been taken over by giant claymation monsters, in which the filmaker used black magic to bring to life. The gang tries to fight the monsters, but the monsters win them over. Mabel discovers that she can build her own claymation creature, so she builds a giant friendly star from the movie she watched earlier. After she saves everyone, they return home and are glad everything is okay. However, they discover that Soos is now made of clay, and Stan throws the remote at his head to get rid of him. 

After the third story, and when the lone traveler doesn't buy anything, Stan gives him/her a sleeping potion and the lone traveler drinks it, causing him/her to fall asleep. He/She later wakes up trapped in a glass box, becoming an attraction at the Mystery Shack, at the end credits he/she ís seen playing Tic-tac-toe with Mabel.

It speaks the truth.

  • The page section at the end of the episode says, "23-12-12 10-15-11-23-4-15-9-10" on the top left, "8-9-5-5-19-5-5-15-10-17 6-9-22-9-4-5 22-25 11-9-9-10-12-15-17-16-4!" and "15-5 22-12-23-21" on the bottom right, which translates to "ALL ANIMATION and "IS BLACKMAGIC" after being put through the combined cipher.
