Laura Palmer's House

From the beginning, this has been my absolute favorite location from Twin Peaks. P.S. Did you know that Laura had a pool out back?

Wow, I'm really impressed. It's a wonderful work you've done here! Did you check if the creepy ceiling fan in the stairway still exists??? ;-)
Thanks!All the best from France...

this freaks me out. I did not realise that the Palmer Residence had left such an impression on me, but its all coming back now despite not having see the series since early 90s. It is magical and I agree with you that the house, its setting, the trees, it really is magically uncomfortable. I could never live there but will stop by one day.
And by the way, you have done some amazing work here. Great photography.

We own the original Palmer house in Monroe, WA, and I had no idea until I noticed a group of people standing at the end of our driveway taking pictures and they told me (July 28, 2007--Twin Peaks Tour). This is one of the coolest days of my life! I was a HUGE fan of the show.

FYI no ceiling fan and the creepy tree is still there. (I love it--great apples.)

To the person who owns the Palmer house,
You are THE luckiest person in the world... okay, that may be an overstatement, but you're pretty darn lucky. I can not adequately express how pleased I am that a Twin Peaks fan owns that house!!! I'll admit, I was somewhat worried that the new owner might paint it purple and rip out the apple tree, etc, etc.... I only wish that I could have been there there when you found out about it. That must have been an amazing feeling. Anyway, thanks so much for posting here. Great news!

I forgot to compliment you on your beautiful website(s). There are so many questions I wish I would have asked the Tour people, e.g. how did they (you) find the house and all the other obscure places?! I loved reading your theories on the show and HAD to go and purchase a boxed set. I will check this website often--I have had a great time navigating through all you've done. Thanks so much for the trip!

I miss TP so much! I watched episode 4 today. As for this house: wonderfully creepy of course. However the big thing, pls. tell me someone's noticed, is that from the side this is the Amityville, creepy attic eyes and all! Has to be deliberate.

Thank you for this tour-love it!

I wanted to share my experience with this house when they were filming the TP pilot. I was attending a private high school in Bellevue at the time. Every year we had a career week, where we had opportunities to explore the careers of volunteer parents. My friend's dad was a unit production manager for some show called "Northwest Passage" that was being shot, and I chose to go with him to work that day. Good choice!

My memory of the day is pretty hazy, but I do remember that we got to check out the inside of Laura's house, and I went briefly upstairs to her room, which I seem to recall was being prepared for some shooting. I also remember going into one of the costume trailers and seeing a row of leather jackets hanging against one side, and having a really tasty breakfast burrito from the craft services cart. I also had a lengthy conversation with a make-up artist inside the house.
I wish I remembered more from that day, because I am a big Twin Peaks fan, but I do know that an abiding interest in movie-making was the result of my experience on the set that day.
