In the never-ending quest to document all of the Twin Peaks film locations, I return to the Blue Pine Lodge, home of the Packard family. The actual film location is the Kiana Lodge in Poulsbo, Washington. This article examines the Kitchen Door Exterior that’s mostly seen in the first episode but has a few cameos later…
In the folksy town of Deer Meadow, Wash., FBI Agent Desmond (Chris Isaak) inexplicably disappears while hunting for the man who murdered a teen girl. The killer is never apprehended, and, after experiencing dark visions and supernatural encounters, Agent Dale Cooper (Kyle MacLachlan) chillingly predicts that the culprit will claim another life. Meanwhile, in the…
“The Norwegians are leaving!” Seeing those four simple words conjures one of the more memorable scenes in the Twin Peaks Pilot episode. This scene was shot a Kiana Lodge which doubled as both the interior of the Great Northern Hotel and Blue Pine Lodge, home to the Packard family, in this first episode. Let’s take…
With Twin Peaks celebrating its 30th Anniversary this year, Showtime has been collaborating with unique designers and companies to create commemorative merchandise. In June 2020, we saw a month-long art collection on Society6. More recently, a 30th Anniversary coffee blend was released by Colorado-based Allegro Coffee. Now, London-based Milltag has launched a limited release cycling…
This year has been a surreal one to say the least. It’s become very clear to me that it’s important to celebrate the loved ones in our lives. It’s with a heavy heart that I write this Love Letter to Galyn Görg, who died at the age of 55 on July 14, 2020 (her birthday…

This Instagram account documents every instance of plaid seen in this wonderful and strange show. Considering I’m a big fan of this…
If there was a cousin to Ronette Pulaski’s bridge, it would most likely be the Meadowbrook Bridge that’s seen in both the Pilot Episode and Part 18 on Showtime. This historic bridge is located just down the street from Ronette’s, and has the distinction of being seen in the first and the last episode of Twin…
When I think of David Lynch and Mark Frost’s Twin Peaks, images of doughnuts, cherry pie and hot cups of black coffee come to mind. To celebrate the 30th Anniversary of the show, Showtime partnered with Colorado-based Allegro Coffee to create a damn, fine blend. Sadly, Allegro Coffee is no longer available as of 2021, but…
The exploration of the home used as the Palmer House in Twin Peaks and Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me continues with a look at the kitchen. It’s fitting we begin our look inside here since it’s the first room seen early on in the Pilot Episode.
When I say “THOSE” Season 2 episodes of Twin Peaks, you know immediately what I’m referencing. Once episode 2.009 effectively closed the Laura Palmer story, the writers focused on other happenings (and mysteries) in this small Pacific Northwest town. Episodes 2.010-2.015 included a number of storylines – Ben Horne’s mental struggle, Dick Tremayne’s attempts at…
