In Twin Peaks Part 18 on Showtime, Dale Cooper and Diane Evans drive 430 miles to a spot in the desert. I found the location on the morning of September 4, 2017, the day after Part 18 first aired. This location was easy to find thanks to a previously identified film location. More on that in…
With the 30th Anniversary of David Lynch’s Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me on August 28, 2022, I scoured newspapers to find print advertisements from the initial release of the film. These ads use variations of an iconic image of Sheryl Lee playing Laura Palmer. Here is a sampling from August and September 1992.
One of the greatest joys from Twin Peaks Season 3 on Showtime was getting another look at The Convenience Store. This location was mentioned in the original series and briefly shown in Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me. With the return to Twin Peaks in 2017, we got an even better look at this fabled spot. For…
In 1993, I fell in in love with David Lynch and Mark Frost’s “wonderful and strange” show by watching reruns of Twin Peaks on Bravo TV. But that Bravo TV was the cable channel found in the United States. Two years later in April 1995, a different Bravo TV began airing reruns of the show…
As summer descends in the Northern Hemisphere, here is a round up of Twin Peaks and David Lynch-themed events taking place around the world from June to August 2026.
The great Harry Dean Stanton would have celebrated his 100th birthday on July 14, 2026. Since I first saw him in Ridley Scott’s Alien, I’ve loved him in every film he’s ever done. I’m particularly enamored with his performance as Fat Trout Trailer Park manager Carl Rodd in David Lynch’s Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me. I…
In 2013, the former Meltdown Comics shop in Los Angeles, California, held an art exhibition celebrating Mark Frost and David Lynch’s iconic television series Twin Peaks from June 8-21. Titled “Damn Fine Coffee,” this exhibition was curated by Nico Colaleo and featured 40 artists from around the entertainment industry. One artist from the show named Gina…
When Mark Frost and David Lynch’s Twin Peaks first aired on April 8, 1990, newspapers and magazines had wall-to-wall coverage of the show that was unlike anything ever seen on network television. Two days after the pilot was shown, the American celebrity tabloid magazine, Star, published a two-page spread about the real Twin Peaks of North…
The majestic Snoqualmie Falls in Snoqualmie, Washington has been photographed for decades. While the 268-foot waterfall attracts millions of visitors every year, it’s part of sacred ancestral lands of the Snoqualmie Indian Tribe—(sdukʷalbixʷ) the People of the Moon. The falls hold profound spiritual significance as it is central to the Tribe’s creation story. I can never tire…
I’m delighted to see the Mahoning Drive-In Theater, nestled in the scenic Pocono Mountains of Lehighton, Pennsylvania, is once again featuring “The Wild World of David Lynch” this August. On Friday, August 21 and Saturday, August 22, 2026, attendees will take an on-screen trip to Twin Peaks with showings of Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me…
David Lynch’s Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me was released in the United Kingdom on November 20, 1992. As part of publicity for the film, a fantastic Red Room-themed press kit was produced. The kit contained a film synopsis, a chart tracking all the relationships in the film and several black and white publicity photos taken by…
Audiences had never seen anything like Mark Frost and David Lynch’s Twin Peaks when the series first aired in April 1990 on the ABC Television Network. Viewers were just as captivated by the mystery of Laura Palmer’s murder as they were by Angelo Badalamenti and Julee Cruise’s music and the small towns of Snoqualmie Valley, Washington where…
I have a special place in my heart for David Lynch’s ultimate road trip film, Wild At Heart, as it was my introduction to his work. I missed the film when it drove into theatres on August 17, 1990. Three years later, I discovered the CD soundtrack at my local library. Chris Isaak’s “Wicked Game” –…
I love finding Twin Peaks treasures I’ve never seen, even after three decades of being a fan of this wonderful and strange town. Recently, I acquired publicity photos from Spelling Films International for David Lynch’s 1992 masterpiece, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me. The auction lot included a photocopy of what appears to be a press kit…
