It’s a short scene in David Lynch’s 1992 film, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me. After being berated by Leland Palmer for not washing her hands before dinner, Laura Palmer is seen crying at a sink in a dimly lit bathroom. This scene was shot on location at a historic Rucker Hill home located in Everett, Washington…
Recently, long-time David Lynch collaborator Sabrina Sutherland shared a behind-the-scenes photo of the Palmer family from Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me. The Instagram post featured Grace Zabriskie, Sheryl Lee and Ray Wise gathered in the Palmer family dining room on location in Everett, Washington.

The exploration of the home used as the Palmer House in Twin Peaks and Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me continues with a look at the kitchen. It’s fitting we begin our look inside here since it’s the first room seen early on in the Pilot Episode.
The Palmer House is one of the most iconic locations in Twin Peaks. Much like the “two Chalfonts” at the Fat Trout Trailer Park, two houses were used – an exterior of one in Monroe, Washington and the interior and exterior of another in Everett, Washington. This article is the first a series examining the important spot…
