David Lynch and Mark Frost’s Twin Peaks sparked numerous articles leading up the North American debut on April 8, 1990. One example is Toronto Star’s supplemental to the Saturday Star called Starweek. The April 7-14, 1990 issue featured a story by Jim Bawden offering readers a first look at the wonderful and strange new show.
On May 26, 2019, fellow Twin Peaks location hunter Ivan Bukta and I set out for a day of film location visits in southern California. The sky was overcast and the weatherman predicted rain (this time, he wasn’t wrong), yet this didn’t deter us from an exciting day visiting more than 15 locations (I ended up…
One of the first articles I wrote for TwinPeaksBlog.com traced the route Agent Cooper drives when entering the town of Twin Peaks. I clearly have an affinity for identifying these driving scenes seen throughout all three seasons of my favorite show. This time, I’m examining the route Mr. C drives during Twin Peaks – Part 3…
The Vacant Peaks series captures fleeting glimpses of buildings, sets, props or details from a place both wonderful and strange. The series builds off a page found on the former InTwinPeaks.com website. The first article in this series visited the Fat Trout Trailer Park from Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me. This time we visit the…
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.
It’s not often that physical locations seen in Mark Frost and David Lynch’s Twin Peaks go on the market. There have been a handful over the years, and each time I dream of owning them. The latest is the famed Bookhouse seen during the first two seasons of the groundbreaking television series. I’ve previously discussed the…
Mark Frost and David Lynch’s Twin Peaks originally aired at a time before access to the World Wide Web was commonplace. While I dabbled in bulletin boards via CompuServe in the late 1980s, I didn’t access the internet until spring 1995. The early 1990s, however, saw some technological marvels that formed a foundation of the social…
I am continuously amazed that some people had the forethought to save newspaper clippings from when Twin Peaks first aired on the ABC Television Network in 1990. I recently acquired a rather pristine copy of “TV Week” from October 21-27, 1990 included in Cleveland’s The Plain Dealer. The cover featured a stunning photo of Richard Beymer…
My quest to identify all the decorations displayed on the Double R Diner set continues with a framed patriotic image seen throughout the first two seasons of Twin Peaks. This vintage print contains a poem first published in 1902 and later became popular during World War I.
On Tuesday, June 18, 1968, 200 people attended the dedication of the then new Snoqualmie Falls Park in Snoqualmie, Washington. As part of a massive renovation, Puget Sound Power had created a covered observation platform overlooking the majestic and sacred Snoqualmie Falls and the roadside Snoqualmie Falls Lodge known for their dining room. At the…
Chill out this winter with these Twin Peaks and David Lynch-inspired events and screenings taking place around the world in January to March 2027.
I love finding rare gems that I’ve never seen in all the years of being a Twin Peaks fan. I particularly like production paperwork as it provides insight into what it took to create the wonderful and strange show I adore. One such thing is a Worldvision Enterprises, Inc. press kit for “Year Two” of Mark…
The Double R Diner set in the first two seasons of Twin Peaks is filled with wonderful set decorations that make it feel like an actual working diner. Some of the earliest articles on Twin Peaks Blog identified artwork hanging above the diner’s booths were action took place. I’m happy to identify another set decoration…
David Lynch’s passing in January 2025 seemed to send a unifying spark into the universe. Since then, fans have gathered monthly in movie theatres, coffee houses, and at events around the world to celebrate the incredibly talented artist. For those who are near Portland, OR-E-GON on October 17-18, 2026, I invite you to attend “Night…
In episode 2.011 of Twin Peaks, Lana Budding and Dougie Milford tie the knot during a small ceremony held at The Great Northern Hotel. The newlyweds then held a reception complete with dancing and cake. When filming took place in late October 1990, Unit Publicist Paula K. Shimatsu-u was on hand to capture some shots of…
