Some of my favorite things to identify are framed artwork found in iconic scenes and sets from Mark Frost and David Lynch’s wonderful and strange world. Examples of these pieces include “Return from the Hunt” at The Roadhouse, “Sea Foam” at the Double R Diner or the floral still life in Laura Palmer’s bedroom. I’m…
The historic North Bend Theatre in North Bend, Washington is hosting “We Live Inside a Dream” from August 13-16, 2026, celebrating the 34th Anniversary of the North American premiere of David Lynch’s Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me.

As part of my extensive research into Mark Frost and David Lynch’s Twin Peaks, I maintain multiple open investigations into the details about my beloved television show. I may start a research project only to return to it years later. I’ve discovered that if I wait, sometimes the stars turn and the mystery is revealed. This…
One of the earliest articles on Twin Peaks Blog was about artwork by English artist Jon Atwood displayed on the Double R Diner set. This article kicked off years of research into identifying props and other set decorations (there’s even a page dedicated to this work now). I love identifying these set pieces as they…

I recently stumbled upon three publicity photos from the 1992 release of David Lynch’s Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me in the Czech Republic. These three images include on-set photography by the late Lorey Sebastian and are something I’ve…
I recently shared the Twin Peaks location where Johnny Horne is seen shooting buffalo cutouts with his toy bow and arrow set in the James Foley-directed episode 2.018 (#25). This footage was recycled from a deleted scene from episode 1.001 (#1) between Dr. Lawrence Jacoby and Special Agent Cooper. Here is a closer look at…

I’m still in a state of shock writing this article as one of my “Holy Grails” of Twin Peaks props is now identified thanks to help from fellow Bookhouse Boy Matthew Haywood. For years, I’ve searched for Special Agent Sam Stanley’s “Whiteman instrument” machine seen in David Lynch’s Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me. I…
