Last year, I created a series of fantasy trading cards to salute the 26th Anniversary of the release of my favorite David Lynch film, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me. This gorgeous motion picture with powerhouse performances by Sheryl Lee, Ray Wise, Dana Ashbrook, and more was released on August 28, 1992. I had a ball…
In Twin Peaks Parts 9 and 10 on Showtime, we visit the Horne Residence, home to Sylvia Horne, former wife of Benjamin Horne and mother to Audrey and Johnny. According to Mark Frost’s “Twin Peaks: The Final Dossier,” following the events of Season 2’s ending, Sylvia eventually divorced Ben and moved into a “McMansion” in an upscale neighborhood…
Site of the grisly murder of Laura Palmer, the Train Car appears in only three episodes from Seasons 1 and 2 and reappears in Twin Peaks – Fire Walk With Me. For this Vacant Peaks article, I share scenes from the outside and inside the car without people present.
With this year marking the 50th Anniversary of Apollo 11, it’s fitting I turn the spotlight on the moon in Twin Peaks and Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me in a new Setting the Stage article.

CBS Home Entertainment officially announced two new Twin Peaks releases for fall 2019 on August 21, 2019.

In a recent article, I discussed the film location of Ronette’s Bridge which makes a brief cameo in Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me while Leland and Laura Palmer are driving to get Sarah Palmer. As a follow up to that article, I explore the film location for this scene that ends with a scary encounter…
When I think of memorable scenes from my first viewing of the Twin Peaks pilot episode, I’m reminded of Ronette Pulaski, bruised and battered, stumbling across an old railroad bridge. It’s a haunting image that begs for answers – Who did this? How did she escape? (luckily, some answers were provided in Twin Peaks: Fire…
In Twin Peaks episode 2.009, Vivian Smythe (a.k.a. M.T. Wentz) said to her daughter Norma Jennings, “That’s not true. The menus are very presentable.” I love a good challenge. @TwinPeaksArchive gave me a heads up that the Showtime Store released a new poster that appeared to be an image from Double R Diner Menu used…

I imagine if Twin Peaks was an actual town, I would have a ball snapping images of the many iconic destinations. For this Setting the Stage article, I’ve compiled reference images for the various signs and logos created…
