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.
In “The Autobiography of FBI Special Agent Dale Cooper: My Life, My Tapes,” author Scott Frost establishes that Coop has been fascinated by tape recorders since he was a child. As any viewer of the series can attest, this checks out. Throughout Twin Peaks, Dale Cooper uses a total of three different micro cassette recorders….
My examination of Twin Peaks costumes continues with a look at Leland Palmer (Ray Wise) from Season 1. Similar to Audrey Horne, there were two costumers since Leland appeared in both the Pilot episode and Episodes 1001-1007.
As a collector of prop replicas, I love it when an item is featured so prominently that it’s easy to identify the make and model. There are several clear shots of Donna Hayward’s cassette player as the gang listens to tapes that Laura has recorded for Dr. Jacoby.
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 Season 1 – Episodes 1001 to 1007. Grab your saddle shoes and let’s go!

In addition to the dreamy music and mysterious locales, Twin Peaks is filled with many memorable quotes. Therefore, I’m launching a new series on Twin Peaks Blog called Quotable Peaks, which turns the spotlight on some of my favorite quotes and the writers who penned them. With Christmas about a week away, I’ll begin with one of…
A few days ago, I was asked by a fellow Bookhouse Gal on Twitter about the tall tree painting in the Twin Peaks Sheriff’s Department. It’s a topic that has been on my list of things to cover on Twin Peaks Blog as you know how I like to obsess over these little details. As…
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…
