- The Cipher Hunt was an alternate reality game and international scavenger hunt created by animator and voice actor Alex Hirsch based on his animated series Gravity Falls. The goal was to find the real-life statue of the series' antagonist Bill Cipher, which was briefly glimpsed at the end of the series finale. The hunt involved retrieving and decoding clues hidden in various locations worldwide. The Cipher Hunt began on July 20, 2016 in Saint Petersburg, Russia, and concluded on August 2, 2016 in a forest in Reedsport, Oregon, where the statue was found. The statue was later taken by local authorities due to a property dispute and was temporarily displayed at Bicentennial Park in Reedsport, before it was relocated permanently to Confusion Hill, a roadside attraction in Piercy, California.
