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…
When I say “THOSE” Season 2 episodes of Twin Peaks, you know immediately what I’m referencing. Once episode 2.009 effectively closed the Laura Palmer story, the writers focused on other happenings (and mysteries) in this small Pacific Northwest town. Episodes 2.010-2.015 included a number of storylines – Ben Horne’s mental struggle, Dick Tremayne’s attempts at…
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…
“And, uh, what can we add to the menu? Some specials, maybe?” Upon hearing M.T. Wentz is coming to town in Twin Peaks episode 2.004, Hank Jennings asks Norma Jennings what items can they add to the menu as he plans to trick the Double R Diner out like “Christmas on the Fourth of July.”…
Grab a booth and order a Cherry Coke as we return to an empty Double R Diner in Twin Peaks. This Vacant Peaks article highlights scenes without people from Seasons 1-3 as well as a brief moment in The Missing Pieces from Twin Peaks – Fire Walk With Me.

In reality, the falls are known as Snoqualmie Falls in Snoqualmie, Washington. This Setting the Stage story takes a look at the falls as seen throughout the three seasons of Twin Peaks.
Marsh Mansion was seen in Season 2 of Twin Peaks from Episodes 2011 to 2015. This Vacant Peaks article takes a look at this location without Evelyn or Jeffrey Marsh, Malcolm Sloan, or James Hurley.
I love the James Hurley and Evelyn Marsh story arc. I didn’t at first but after my first 29 1/2 hour Twin Peaks marathon in 1994, the story grew on me. Perhaps it was the nod to 1950s Noir cinema or the dialogue between James, Evelyn and Malcolm Sloan. From episodes 2.011 to 2.015, the…
The brief exchange in the Pilot episode between Agent Cooper and Sheriff Truman about traffic lights in Twin Peaks was the perfect summation of what viewers could expect from the sleepy little town with a population of 51,201. To paraphrase Sheriff Truman in Episode 1.003, Twin Peaks is “different” and a “long way from the…
