Bill Cipher is the main antagonist of Gravity Falls, the animated mystery series created by Alex Hirsch that aired from 2012 to 2016. The one-eyed triangular dream demon manipulates the show's heroes through deals, tricks and cryptic warnings, and his smooth, unsettling voice became one of the series' most recognisable traits. Fans later clipped his dialogue for edits, reaction videos and memes, where a single knowing line can signal that a character is about to cause chaos. The sound remains popular because it instantly evokes the show's blend of humour, mystery and menace.
