By now if you have been following Twin Peaks Blog, you’ll know I love discussing, researching and visiting film locations from Twin Peaks. While there are many actual locations to explore in Washington, California and a handful of other states, there are several spots that I’ll never be able to visit unless I invent a…
One of my favorite locations in Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me is the FFat Trout Trailer Park in Deer Meadow. When I learned a New Fat Trout would be in Season 3 on Twin Peaks on Showtime, I was beyond excited to see what mysteries would be revealed. Granted, I don’t know why Carl…
Columbus, Ohio is the last place I thought I’d meet Ray Wise (Leland Palmer) and Sheryl Lee (Laura Palmer). Born and raised in the capitol city, I fell in love with my favorite David Lynch film in the early 1990s. Imagine my delight when I learned that Studio 35 Cinema was planning a weekend of…
In Season 3 of Twin Peaks on Showtime, we return to the Fat Trout Trailer Park.

I recently discussed where part of this scene was shot at a motel in Pearblossom, California. But according to a waitress at Eat at Rudy’s, the…
After driving to and through 430 miles in Twin Peaks Part 18 on Showtime, Special Agent Dale Cooper and Diane Evans arrive at a motel somewhere in the desert. This location, like several others from Season 3, was shot in southern California. Thanks to the motel’s sign, I easily found this location shortly after the original broadcast…
After leaving the Convenience Store in Twin Peaks Part 15 on Showtime, Mr. C and Richard Horne make their way to a spot in western Montana at the beginning of Part 16. Thanks to a tweet from Kyle MacLachlan exactly one year ago today, I was able to locate the film location for what I’m calling…
