In Twin Peaks Parts 17 and 18, Agent Cooper loses Laura Palmer as he is escorting her home during a nighttime trek in the woods. Through the magic of editing and a few camera tricks, their walk looks longer than it actually is. The scene is shot near the location of two previous scenes from Part…
In Twin Peaks – Part 17, Special Agent Dale Cooper watches a meeting in the woods between James Hurley and Laura Palmer. While the original scene of the couple’s late night exchange is found in Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me, the new scene offers a unique angle as to what happened during Laura’s last night on…
I’ve previously discussed the location of Big Ed’s Gas Farm as seen in Twin Peaks – The Return, the incredible third season of Mark Frost and David Lynch’s wonderful and strange show. Whether its in the pilot or the third season, this location has seen its fair share of businesses occupy the buildings that served as…
In the early 1990s, Craig Tuttle’s photography of the Pacific Northwest was everywhere. From greeting cards to books to calendars, he captured the beauty of many places throughout Washington and Oregon. It’s no surprise that he photographed Snoqualmie Falls and the Salish Lodge & Spa as the falls was and continues to be one of…

This location served as Nadine Butler Hurley’s Run Silent, Run Drapes shop in Twin Peaks The Return before it was converted into an outstanding local brewery. The cool part about…
My collection of Snoqualmie Falls and Salish Lodge & Spa postcards continues growing. This pair of postcards contains photographs by Ben Harrison complete with awesome 1990s graphic designs bathed in purple.
My long-term dream is to identify every film location from Twin Peaks. During a recent visit to North Bend, I got one step closer to achieving that dream by identifying a brief establishing shot from the opening of Part 10 in Season 3.
By now, you’ve read how special this year’s Real Twin Peaks 2024 event was for attendees visiting the Snoqualmie Valley in Washington. On February 24, VIP attendees were treated to a surprise visit from Kyle MacLachlan at the North Bend Theatre. The next day, Kyle held a special meet and greet in the new lobby…
I continue finding some awesome historical postcards of Snoqualmie Falls. A recent acquisition includes a familiar image taken by Charles R. Laidlaw. Fans of Mark Frost’s “The Secret History of Twin Peaks” will immediately recognize this image.
