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 image is similar to other promotional stills captured by…
As I continue documenting and preserving Twin Peaks history, I’m sharing a GQ Style article about David Lynch’s Twin Peaks from their Fall | Winter 2014 issue. Author Tom Carson explores how David Lynch and Mark Frost’s early 1990s show influenced fashion in 2014.
From October 9-11, 2010, Twin Peaks cast and crew gathered for a reunion at The Hollywood Show in Burbank, California. One crew member in attendance was Paula K. Shimatsu-U, who served as the Unit Publicist for Lynch/Frost Productions, assistant to Mark Frost and on-set photographer for the first two seasons of the show. For this event,…
I recently paid tribute to Lori Eschler Fystak as an unsung hero of the Twin Peaks soundtrack. Thanks to an unexpected advertisement I found while researching early news reports about the show, I’m turning the spotlight on David Boushey.

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…
A cluster of buildings sit on a nondescript corner of a desert road outside Palmdale, California. Surrounded by Joshua trees and nestled in the shadow of a beige-colored mountain, these seemingly abandoned buildings look like something from a bygone era. Things are not what they seem, however, as the diner, gas station and motel are…
In Twin Peaks – Part 3 on Showtime, hitman Jake (played by Bill Tangradi) tracks Jade’s yellow Jeep as she leaves the Rancho Rosa Estates neighborhood. This film location article is a nice companion piece to both articles detailing fellow hitman Gene’s stakeout outside Dougie Jones’ love nest in Parts 3 and 5 and Jade and…
