Today, is an exciting day as the staff at TwinPeaksBlog.com has grown by one. Please welcome fellow Bookhouse Boy (and talented musician) Vinnie Guidera. By chance, we met in person during my trip to Snoqualmie Valley in September 2019. I quickly learned we share a passion for props and places from David Lynch and Mark…
Last weekend, I kicked off a new recurring series that examines costumes worn by a variety of actors in Twin Peaks. That first Costuming Peaks story looked at Audrey Horne’s outfits in the Pilot episode. Today, I’m examining her looks from episodes 1.001 to 1.007. Grab your saddle shoes and let’s go!
“You simply have got to teach me some of these incredible songs.” – Ben Horne, Twin Peaks, Episode 1006 The music of Twin Peaks was my gateway to David Lynch and Mark Frost’s wonderful and strange world. Following the departure on the Norwegians in the Pilot Episode, Jerry Horne courts a new investment group that has a…
“When this kind of fire starts, it is very hard to put out. The tender boughs of innocence burn first, and the wind rises, and then all goodness is in jeopardy.” – The Log Lady, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me Fire plays a critical role in Twin Peaks. Originally, I planned on writing about…
One of my great joys writing for this blog is identifying props from Twin Peaks and sharing their fascinating history with you. This time, we return to the Johnson house for a prop in the kitchen that is seen in the first two seasons. I was researching something completely different when I came across this…

During my research, I pulled a handful of images without people from the cabins seen in Season 1 and in Twin Peaks – Fire Walk With Me. If you love birds, especially Waldo, the Myna bird, then you will love this…
My parents hail from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, so I recall visiting Horne’s Department Store when I was younger. Joseph Horne (no relation to Ben or Jerry) started his self-named department store in 1849 and quickly built a large building in downtown Pittsburgh in 1879. Eventually, Horne’s was purchased by Federated Department Stores and the Horne’s name was…
Fresh from celebrating Twin Peaks Day 2019 on February 24, I explored the Palmer House in the latest Vacant Peaks article. Similar to other frequently used sets in the series such as the Red Room or The Great Northern Hotel, this will be a multi-part story with images of the home’s interior and exterior without…
On August 22, 2018, ScifiHobby.com released the first series of Twin Peaks trading cards from Rittenhouse Archives. The collection documents the all three seasons of the series and includes plot synopsis, autographed cards, character cards, quote cards and more. This article looks at cards 11-20 in the base set series of 90 cards.
I recently explored scenes in Twin Peaks that used the gazebo in Easter Park. This time, I’m taking a look at Easter Park and Black Lake. According to the “Twin Peaks Access Guide to the Town,” Easter Park doesn’t exist. It’s called Upper Twin Park and Lower Twin Park. Black Lake is further north along Highway…
