Floral print decor runs rampant throughout David Lynch and Mark Frost’s Twin Peaks. From floral wallpaper found throughout the Palmer house to walls lined with flowers in Laura Palmer’s dreamworld, flowers are seen everywhere. I recently identified a floral print hanging in the Hayward’s dining room. This time, I travel across their home to look at a…
I’ve been on a kick lately identifying several iconic set decorations from Mark Frost and David Lynch’s Twin Peaks. I love finding these background art pieces after seeing them during multiple rewatches for more than three decades. Today, I’m returning to the Hayward house where a beautiful illustration of roses by Pierre-Josephe Redouté created in 1821.
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.

Episodes 2.010-2.015 included a number of storylines – Ben Horne’s mental struggle, Dick Tremayne’s attempts at…
By far, one of the best dressed characters in Twin Peaks is Richard “Dick” Tremayne, who is played by Scottish actor Ian Buchanan. Tremayne appears in eleven episodes throughout Season 2, beginning with Episode 2.003 and ending with Episode 2.021. Ian celebrates his birthday on June 16, so I thought today is a perfect time…
