One thing I love finding during my exhaustive research into Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me is when real world items cross into David Lynch’s fictional world. A great example of this is the heart-shaped wreath found on the front door of the Palmer’s house.
One story I’ve been tracking down for nearly 27 years comes from the production of Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me. During the 1996 Twin Peaks Fan Festival, I heard a story about Laura Palmer’s soggy cereal. Thanks to a conversation with a reporter from the Daily Herald in Everett, Washington, I now know the origin…
Between the expert sleuthing of my Twin Peaks Blog comrade Steven Miller and the detectives before us on sites like InTwinPeaks.com, there are very few filming locations from this body of work that remain uncharted. Some things, though, are simply out of reach to curious fans. But as the Log Lady says, “the stars turn…
One of the highlights from The Real Twin Peaks 2023 event in Snoqualmie Valley, Washington was a day filled with interesting, informative and entertaining panel discussions about topics related to Twin Peaks. Here is a brief recap of the panels complete with video.

Let’s return to the wonderful town of North Bend, Washington to explore a previously discussed film location seen in David Lynch’s 1992 masterpiece, Twin Peaks – Fire Walk With Me. This time, however, we are going to the opposite side of the Mt. Si Motel from where scenes with Teresa Banks and Leland Palmer were shot….
For my quest to document every film Twin Peaks location, I want to identify and examine all the scenes that were shot on soundstages. While the overall location will be consistent for all of these scenes, the details uncovered will be interesting to explore. Let’s start with Dougie Jones’ appearance in the Red Room from Part…
While recently researching images for the Costuming Peaks article about Shelly Johnson’s outfit from Season 1, I became enamored with her robe. It first appears in the Pilot Episode and would be carried over to other scenes in the first two seasons. I wondered just how many robes were seen in Twin Peaks. Good news…
This past week, I woke up from a dream with the idea for this article (no rock throwing was involved). Since David Lynch and Mark Frost’s Twin Peaks first aired on the ABC Television Network in April 1990, there have been many variations on the series logo. Granted, some of these variations are based on graphic…
