“Blow the whistle, Josie. It’s quittin’ time.” What does the Packard Sawmill look like without people? As a follow up to a Setting the Stage article, I’ve compiled images from the Mill for a new Vacant Peaks story. The images are taken from the Pilot Episode, Episode 1007, Episode 2001, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me, and The…
The interior scenes at the Silver Mustang Casino floor in Las Vegas, Nevada were actually shot at the Morongo Casino located at 49500 Seminole Drive in Cabazon, California.
According to the “Twin Peaks: Access Guide to the Town,” the Packard Sawmill is located on Sparkwood Road near Black Lake Falls. The mill played a critical role in most of the first season of Twin Peaks before being destroyed by a fire set by Leo Johnson. This article takes a look at the exterior locations of The…
It’s time to explore Dr. Lawrence Jacoby’s office like Donna Hayward and James Hurley in Twin Peaks Episode 1007. This Vacant Peaks article shows empty sets, props and details without people.

Originally, I wanted to identify the framed photograph displayed on the wall near Agent Albert Rosenfield’s desk at the FBI Office in Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me. I must have been channeling Agent Sam Stanley as I ended up identifying several props used in this scene.
For years, I longed to see the deleted scenes in my favorite David Lynch film, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me. Before The Missing Pieces was released in 2014, the closest I got to “seeing” these scenes was a script-to-screen comparison on Dugpa.com.

For this Vacant Peaks article, I’m taking a look at the FBI Office in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania as seen in Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me. This scene, which marked the return of the long lost Phillip Jeffries, had a few glimpses without people. The “field office” was shot at the now demolished Cabrini Hospital once located…
