I’d like to think the official beer of Twin Peaks is Rainier Beer. At the time the first two seasons and David Lynch’s feature film were made, the taps were still flowing at the Washington state brewery. Today, the Rainier brand is owned and operated by Pabst Brewing Company and the beer is produced in California….
As frequent Twin Peaks Blog readers have surely surmised, my approach toward identifying props and set decorations is to leave no stone unturned. I may never run out of things to write about, because the Hurley house has A LOT of stones.
I continue finding some awesome historical postcards of Snoqualmie Falls. A recent acquisition includes a familiar image taken by Charles R. Laidlaw. Fans of Mark Frost’s “The Secret History of Twin Peaks” will immediately recognize this image.
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…
After all these years of being a Twin Peaks fan, there are certain images stick out in my mind.

One of the many knickknacks occupying the shelves of the Hurley house is a souvenir ceramic boot from Bobby McGee’s Conglomeration. Let’s take a look at where this boot appears in Twin Peaks Seasons 1 and 2.
Lately I’ve been spending time identifying a variety of props found in Twin Peaks. I love the thrill of the hunt and the endorphin rush when I finally find a match. This effort to identify all of the props has turned into a team sport which is fantastic! After I published an article about a Con-way…
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.
