I love exploring the film location for driving scenes in Twin Peaks. One of the first articles I published on this blog discussed Agent Cooper’s drive into town. There is something about the magic of editing with these scenes that is fun to break down. Today, I’m looking at the scene in Episode 2008 where Leland…
For my quest to document every film Twin Peaks location, I want to identify and examine all the scenes that were shot on soundstages. While the overall location will be consistent for all of these scenes, the details uncovered will be interesting to explore. Let’s start with Dougie Jones’ appearance in the Red Room from Part…
One of the first articles I wrote for TwinPeaksBlog.com traced the route Agent Cooper drives when entering the town of Twin Peaks.

Surrounded by Joshua Trees and nestled in the shadow of a beige-colored mountain, these seemingly abandoned buildings look like something from a bygone era.

Curated by Master Framer Tommy Ardolino, this free exhibit is on display through June 12, 2021. I spent…
I love a good challenge. For the longest time, I’ve wondered where the interior of Horne’s Department Store from Twin Peaks – Episode 1006 was shot. Thanks to a challenge from a long-time fan and fellow Bookhouse Boy, I have irrefutable evidence that I found it.
Fellas, it’s time for a house call to the film location that serves as the exterior of Jacques Renault’s apartment in Twin Peaks – Episodes 1.004 and 1.005.
