Greetings from 40,000-feet! I’m currently en route to Washington state for another Twin Peaks film location adventure. As I’m preparing for the next few days, I thought about some of the current “white whales” that I’m seeking in the Pacific Northwest.
In my quest to cover nearly every Twin Peaks film location on TwinPeaksBlog.com, I uncovered something unique about the view of The Great Northern Hotel (aka The Salish Lodge) found in several second season episodes. Unless I invent a time machine, I’ll never be able to take the exact photo of the Hotel as something is…
In Twin Peaks Episode 1.002, there is a transitional shot of the top of a snow-covered Mount Si in North Bend, Washington. During my visit in October 2019, I took a similar shot of this gorgeous mountain overlooking the town. Here is a comparison on screen appearance from 1989 to today, with extra photos from the…
Being a Twin Peaks fan in the 1990s, there were not many easy options for finding officially (or unofficially licensed products). The ease of Internet shopping with two-day delivery had not been invented. Instead, you had two options – contact Bruce Phillips, an avid collector who published a mail order catalog of Twin Peaks goodies,…
One of the highlights during my trip to Washington state in September 2019 was visiting the film location for Carl Rodd’s bench. This brief-but-moving scene in Twin Peaks Part 6 on Showtime shows Mr. Rodd watching a mother and son play tag while he enjoys a cigarette and a cup of coffee from the Double…
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….
Have you ever looked at something and felt it wasn’t quite right? I had that feeling when I was looking for the film location of James Hurley and Laura Palmer’s meeting in the woods from Twin Peaks – Fire Walk With Me. 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…
