North Bend / Snoqualmie, Washington — Welcome to Twin Peaks

Snoqualmie Valley · Population ~7,500

David Lynch chose North Bend and Snoqualmie as the filming location for Twin Peaks — and the town embraces its dark legacy. The iconic Snoqualmie Falls, Twede's Café (the Double R Diner), and the surrounding dark forests all appeared in the show. But Lynch didn't have to create the eeriness. He just filmed what was already there.

Why North Bend / Snoqualmie Is Strange

The Snoqualmie tribe considers the falls sacred — the place where the mist carries prayers to the spirit world. Paranormal investigators have recorded anomalous electromagnetic readings near the falls that spike during dawn and dusk.
