Twin Peaks Blog would not exist without the incredible websites that were around long before mine. Like the Bookhouse Boys, I’m now continuing the work started by those before me. I’ve mentioned the defunct InTwinPeaks.com that sparked my hunt to find all of the film locations. Another essential site launched in 1999 was Dugpa.com. A…
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,…
Last year was my first time participating in Record Store Day. I had a good reason to go – multiple soundtracks to Twin Peaks on Showtime were released on picture disc vinyl. At the time, I thought my day long adventure would be a one-of-a-kind experience until I saw a tweet from @TwinPeaksBook on February 28, 2019….
I love finding vintage postcards of Snoqualmie Falls with Mid-Century inspired designs. This one from Smith-Western, Co. Inc. features the majestic and sacred 268-foot waterfall and the former Snoqualmie Falls Lodge known today as Salish Lodge & Spa.
With the arrival of fall on the horizon, here is a round up of David Lynch and Twin Peaks-themed events taking place around the world from September to December 2026.
I acquired several several color transparencies from ABC / Capitol Cities featuring characters from David Lynch and Mark Frost’s Twin Peaks. I’ve shared a few of them in previous articles, such as Peggy Lipton as Norma Jennings and Sheriff Harry S. Truman and Josie Packard. This time, the small town Sheriff (Michael Ontkean) joins Special Agent…
In 1996, the Salish Lodge changed its name to Salish Lodge & Spa after they added a world-class spa to the property. Perched above the wondrous Snoqualmie Falls, this addition made the hotel an ideal destination for relaxation and retreat in Washington state. The name change also helps postcard collectors like me as it helps…
When David Lynch’s Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me was released in North American theatres in August 1992, the film’s stars turned up in several newspaper articles and magazines. For example, Sheryl Lee, who gave an outstanding and memorable performance in Lynch’s prequel to Twin Peaks, was featured in the “Peoplescape” section of the August 1992…
The Twin Peaks fan community continually amazes me by their creativity and projects that foster connections. After all, I believe if you like Mark Frost and David Lynch’s show, you are part of a “whole damn town” of friends. One such project was recently launched by the Great Northern Guestbook. Using a recovered set decor piece…
David Lynch’s Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me was released on home video in the United States on January 6, 1993. Ten days later, a short review by Myles Callum was published in the January 16-22 issue of “TV Guide.” He said Lynch’s 1992 masterpiece was “weirder than ever.”
Buried in a bunch of newspaper and magazine clippings I won at auction, I found a two-page advertisement for the short-lived official Twin Peaks newsletter, The Twin Peaks Gazette. This “newspaper” was written in cooperation from series creators Mark Frost and David Lynch and differs from one created by Steve Ryan from Fullerton, California first published in…
Mark Frost and David Lynch’s Twin Peaks changed network television when it first aired in 1990. The Network Television Association (NTA) certainly paid attention as shows like Twin Peaks meant viewers were tuning in to the ABC Television Network. In anticipation of the show’s second season debut, the NTA ran a full-page ad in the…
In September 1990, television viewers in homes across the United States could not wait for the return of Mark Frost and David Lynch’s Twin Peaks. In anticipation of the first episode of the second season to air on September 30, syndicated columnist Jay Bobbin wrote a story with quotes from series co-creator Mark Frost and…
During the first two seasons of Mark Frost and David Lynch’s Twin Peaks, one of the most enigmatic characters is never seen on screen. Special Agent Dale Cooper sends micro-cassettes to the mysterious Diane back at the F.B.I. Headquarters. Magically, she delivers ear plugs overnight when the Icelanders invade The Great Northern Hotel and offers unseen…
The historic North Bend Theatre in downtown North Bend, Washington celebrated the 34th Anniversary of the North American premiere of David Lynch’s Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me from August 13-16, 2026. This “We Live Inside a Dream” weekend including film screenings of David Lynch’s movies along with the world premiere of Scott Ryan’s documentary, “The…
