In Twin Peaks episode 2.021, Agent Cooper hypothesizes that “if the door to the Black Lodge does exist, it probably exists at a point in time.” Symbols from the Owl Cave petroglyph and a pocket book on planets lead him to conclude that the gateway opens when Jupiter and Saturn meet. This is known in…
I feel like I’ve been waiting my entire life to write this article. Today, the planets Jupiter and Saturn will be conjunct in the night sky. Long time Twin Peaks fans have been mimicking Windom Earle signing about this conjunction since episode 2.020 (#27) first aired on April 18, 1991. It is by far one…
I love a good challenge, especially when it comes to identifying props. I received a note via the “Contact Us” section from a fellow Bookhouse Boy named Robert. He asked about the tape recorder that Pete Martell uses in episode 2.008 when taunting Ben Horne who is locked away in the Twin Peaks Sheriff’s Department…
I loved seeing the legendary Don Murray play Bushnell Mullins, Dougie Jones’ boss at Lucky 7 Insurance, in Season 3 of Twin Peaks. Thanks to a giant framed poster behind Mullins’ desk at Lucky 7, we get some insight into his character. Now that some time has passed since Season 3 ended (and those Non-Disclosure Agreements…
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.

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…
Now for a deep cut from the Johnson house. You may remember I previously identified the sunflower napkin holder in their kitchen. I return to this spot with details about a prop placed on top of their cupboard.
I love finding new things to share. This one happened by accident as I was desperately searching for something completely unrelated when I stumbled upon three Currier and Ives prints found at the Double R Diner in the show’s first two seasons. These three pieces join other previously identified artwork including Norman Yeckley’s “Spring Formal”…
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…
One of my favorite things to find are props that were carried over from the Pilot Episode to the regular season of Twin Peaks. Thanks to the help of fellow Bookhouse Boy Jason McMahan, I recently picked up a replica of the Con-way Central Express (CCX) Miles Ahead mug that is seen both in the Pilot…
