One of the final official events for Real Twin Peaks 2024 was the Twin Tilts Pinball Tournament at Volition Brewing Co. in North Bend, Washington.

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.
If you have followed Twin Peaks Blog for awhile, you’ll know that my fellow authors Vinnie Guidera and Jason Mattson love discussing, identifying and even recreating props from the series.

One story I’ve been tracking down for nearly 27 years comes from the production of Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me.
