Doubling is a common theme that runs throughout Twin Peaks. There are “two Chalfont trailers” at the Fat Trout Trailer Park, Laura Palmer’s cousin, Madeline Ferguson, looks almost exactly like her.

After responding to a post on the Facebook group Lynchland Gang about Special Agent Sam Stanley’s “Whiteman Machine,” I decided to take a closer look at Teresa Banks’ autopsy scene in tiny Deer Meadow Sheriff’s Department morgue.

One thing I love finding during my exhaustive research into Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me is when real world items cross into David Lynch’s fictional world. A great example of this is the heart-shaped wreath found on the front door of the Palmer’s house.
One story I’ve been tracking down for nearly 27 years comes from the production of Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me.
