During my visit to Olallie State Park in mid-September 2019, I visited many Twin Peaks film locations. Most scenes were shot along Weeks Falls trail, a spectacular tree-lined, dirt trail that ends at a beautiful waterfall. At the beginning this trail, you’ll find the iconic location from Season 3 where Agent Cooper meets Laura Palmer following…
In Twin Peaks Part 14 on Showtime, the Twin Peaks Sheriff’s Department discovers Naido while visiting a spot 253 yards due east of Jack Rabbit’s Palace. This magical portal is seen again in Part 17 when Mr. C visits this location. I covered the film location in Olallie State Park rather extensively in this article….
Vacant Peaks takes a visit to Rancho Rosa Estates in this article. Appearing in Parts 3, 5, and 6, the community is home to Dougie Jones’ “love shack” and the one-one-nine house.

This scene, like…
In a recent article discussing Special Agent Dale Cooper’s nightstand in Room 315 at The Great Northern Hotel, I spotted a Native American figurine.

While visiting Olallie State Park on September 17, 2019, I thought I found the spot….
Stop me if you’ve heard this one before – a FBI Mobile Crime Van Driver and a Medic walk into Deer Meadow Sheriff’s Department in Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me only to discover that they have been miscredited for years. This article originally set out to discuss a film location from my favorite David Lynch…
In Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me, Jacques Renault arranges a big drug deal at midnight, near the sound of sawing wood. In a previous article, I discussed the film location for the first part of this scene. Today, I continue with a look at where their deal-gone-south took place. I couldn’t wait to write…
Happy Halloween! For this spooky holiday, I’m taking a closer look at a scene that was allegedly filmed for Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me on this day in 1991. Unlike my previous call sheet analysis from November 1, details about this scene come from a brief mention in the official press release for David Lynch’s 1992…
