The final scene of the “Snoqualmie River” trilogy of film locations from Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me is where Leland/Bob puts Laura Palmer into the river after murdering her in the train car. This scene was also shot in the same area as Cooper recording a note to Diane and Teresa Banks’ body floating in…
I recently shared details about the film location where Teresa Banks’ body floats along Wind River from Twin Peaks – Fire Walk With Me. That scene is one of three filmed along the bank of South Fork Snoqualmie River in Olallie State Park located just outside of North Bend, Washington. The second scene in the…

“I’m back!” – Leland Palmer in Episode 2001 Just like Leland, I have returned from an incredible birthday trip to Washington State. I had not visited the region since August 1996 when I attended the Twin Peaks Fan Fest. Twenty-three years later, I now question why it took me so long to return. I ended…

This was such a payoff from Season 1 when she tried to create “completely silent” drape runners using “COTTON BALLS!” The location used for her shop is found in the heart of North Bend, Washington and…
