When the Giant suddenly appears in Room 315 at The Great Northern Hotel, he tells Special Agent Dale Cooper three things that will come true. Episode 2.001 was the first episode of the much-anticipated Season 2 that aired on September 30, 1990. Mark Frost and David Lynch collaborated on the script while Frost wrote the…
Steven and I have spent plenty of time tracking the unique kitchenware used in Twin Peaks, like the airbrushed Syracuse china from the Blue Pine Lodge and the vintage Fire-King mugs at the Sheriff station. However, an unassuming white mug that appears in the Great Northern’s dining hall might be one of the show’s most…
I’m returning the Tremond house location today with a closer look inside the house from Episodes 2002 and 2009 of Twin Peaks. Unlike other home interiors from the first two seasons of the show which used soundstages, these scenes were shot inside a private residence in Agoura Hills, California.
As a companion piece to the film location article about the Tremond house exterior in Twin Peaks Season 2, I’m taking a closer look at the exterior of Harold Smith’s apartment. These two articles are joined because the houses were part of the same property in Agoura Hills, California. Unfortunately, both houses were destroyed in November 2018…
I’ve previously discussed how the Woolsey Fire of November 2018 destroyed the iconic gazebo from the first two seasons of Twin Peaks. I’m sad to report that another three locations were lost in that devastating fire – the Tremond, Smith and Briggs homes from the original broadcast in the early 1990s.

While recently searching for the Con-way Central Express (CCX) mug prop in various scenes taking place at the Twin Peaks Sheriff’s Station, something caught my eye in Sheriff Truman’s office. We all know Truman’s name is reminiscent of the 33rd President of the United States, Harry S. Truman. It appears that his love of presidents…
With the start of Season 2, Ray Wise’s character of Leland Palmer experiences a dramatic visual change – his hair turns white overnight. As a follow up article to his Season 1 looks, this article will examine Mr. Palmer’s costumes from Episodes 2.001-2.009, a photo cameo in Episode 2.010 and his otherworldly return in Episode…
Continuing my look at the costumes worn by actors in Twin Peaks, this Costuming Peaks article focuses on Audrey Horne (played by Sherilyn Fenn). Audrey’s outfits, much like her character, matures throughout Season 2.
“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…
