For several years now, I have loved playing the game of finding and identifying Twin Peaks locations. Between the thrill of the hunt to researching a location’s history, there is no greater joy than finding a photo that confirms my suspicions about a location. Today, I’m happy to report I am crossing off another location…
Today, I’m continue my quest to identify props used in Laura Palmer’s bedroom from David Lynch’s Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me. A few years ago, I found the floral still life above Laura’s dresser where she hid her secret diary. Now I have identified the frame floral print located at her bedside.
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 years comes from the production of Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me. During the 1996 Twin Peaks Fan Festival, I heard a story about Laura Palmer’s soggy cereal.

One of the highlights from The Real Twin Peaks 2023 event in Snoqualmie Valley, Washington was a day filled with interesting, informative and entertaining panel discussions about topics related to Twin Peaks. Here is a brief recap of the panels complete with video.
Late one night nearly five years ago, I was huddled in front of my laptop screen debating about pushing a button labeled “Publish.” Pressing it meant the start of a new chapter in my wonderful and strange journey through David Lynch and Mark Frost’s Twin Peaks. At the time, I had no idea where the path…
During a recent visit to Kiana Lodge in Poulsbo, Washington, I learned that Laura Palmer’s log had moved down shore. The culprit was most likely king tides in Puget Sound, which have grown increasingly strong as sea levels rise. While exploring the site, I discovered another location briefly seen in Season 3 is long gone…
