The Stanley Pines Memorial Library of the Supernatural, previously known as the Mystery Shack, was a famous library located in Gravity Falls, Oregon. It was home to a number of rare books about the supernatural and has been in the Pines family since Stanford Pines commissioned it in the mid 1970s[1].

History

In 1975, Stanford Pines commissioned a simple cabin on the outskirts of Gravity Falls. The cabin was meant to be his home while he studied the strange and wonderful creatures living in the town. After Stanford's disappearance in 1981, his twin brother Stanley moved in and converted it to a tourist trap called the Mystery Shack. The Pines family continued to affectionately refer to it as 'the Shack' even after the conversion to supernatural library. After the Transcendence, Stanley Pines converted it into a library. Stanford suggested that it be named after Stanley, despite still being alive, to memorialize "a great hero and historical figure."[2]
