As part of my extensive research into Mark Frost and David Lynch’s Twin Peaks, I maintain multiple open investigations into the details about my beloved television show. I may start a research project only to return to it years later. I’ve discovered that if I wait, sometimes the stars turn and the mystery is revealed. This…
I’m returning to something I love while researching Twin Peaks – identifying artwork used on the various sets created for the show. This time, I’m visiting the room at One-Eyed Jacks in episode #2.002 (#9) where Audrey Horne confronts Emory Battis. In the background, you’ll spot artwork by German-born artist Max Gundlach.
There are some photographs in this world that I can hear. Take this publicity photo of James Marshall, Sheryl Lee and Lara Flynn Boyle from Twin Peaks episode 2.002 (#9). As I stare at this image from the David Lynch-directed episode, I can’t help hearing James’ falsetto voice. I acquired this slide in an auction…
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. Thankfully Charles from the former…
After all these years of being a Twin Peaks fan, there are certain images stick out in my mind. In particular, I remember many scenes with James Marshall as Laura Palmer’s secret boyfriend, James Hurley. While some have joked about his role, he really does give an emotionally-charged and powerful performance in all three seasons plus Twin…
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…
