[Some comments on the video:]

She walks so much like Sheryl Lee! Gawd is it her? @meinfulleffect I’m thinking it is, but she looks more blonde… With her hair wavy, and darker hair underneath

[Pic by twitter user @wfredin — Lynch, Kyle and Sheryl]

UnderTheSycamores: [Oct 9–10:30pm] [After much speculation on whether the woman was Sheryl] It’s definitely Sheryl guys I’m out here right now. Kyle came over and talked to us for a bit too. So cool!

UnderTheSycamores: [Asked about hair color] Kind of a dirty blonde.

vicksvapor77: I just got sent a few photos by my source and it looks like Sheryl to me too

Jonah: [Oct 10–0:00am] Someone posted this on Twitter (and they previously mentioned Kyle looking cold, so likely they are there): “Who let the weird tattooed guy sit in the food tent and eat with everyone?! #TwinPeaks2017 #TwinPeaks #StarStruck” — maybe the cast and crew are on a filming break. The tattooed guy could be anyone, but based on #StarStruck, maybe it’s an actor? (Getty — think he has tattoos? not sure who else….)

BobCooper: Watching filming on here [provided a Periscope link no longer active]. An actor referred to them as ‘Dale and Laura’

BobCooper: [Oct 10–1:45am] Basically they filmed a scene apparently where a new couple owns the Palmer home and Dale Cooper and Laura Palmer walk up to the front door. Cooper and Laura also walk to an FBI car with Texas license plates.

UnderTheSycamores: [Oct 10] I left before the scream occurred but periscope guy said it was Sheryl that did, after Coop looked at the ground in some sort of trance.

Jugger: [Oct 10] I also found out some information about the house from the current home owners as well as some of what was filmed inside on Wednesday [Oct 7] and what was filmed along Pigeon Creek road on Thursday [Oct 8]. I do know that the crew was off for the rest of Saturday, with filming to resume tonight but at a different area. I found out where but it is more than likely a location that is not accessible by fans.

Jugger: The Steadicam filming was from the street to up the stairs in front of the house and right up to the front door. They did the take a few times, I personally think it was done simply as a Cooper or perhaps a Laura Palmer (if that is who Lee is playing) perspective perhaps the final version will show them walking up and at times a your POV perspective. I think maybe it’s more of a your POV as they approach because if they were filming it was her POV, they would have done a take of Cooper walking up in front with the Steadicam operator slightly behind him so he would be shown in the shot giving the viewer her perspective as they walk up but they didn’t film that, it was just the camera operator. This was all some of what I captured on video, the actors were off in their trailers, we all thought they had gone home for the night but they returned later on.

Jugger: For those that like the tiniest of details, the Texas license plate on the car he drives to the Palmer’s house reads “VS2–168R”

Chankonabe: [About the possibility the car plates in Everett were random rental ones] The car had California license plates which were changed out to Texas license plates before the shoot. Afterwards, the original license plates were put back on the car.

Jugger: Yeah when they wrapped Saturday [Oct 10] morning around 5:15am I noticed a crew member taking the plates off the car. I didn’t see what he put back on, if anything, but did take the Texas plates off.

Jugger: My take on it was based on what I saw at the Palmer filming was Laura (IF its even Laura) was walking slowly out of hesitation/nervousness about approaching the house and Cooper taking her hand was to comfort her. The only time I thought I saw strange walking was after they walk back towards his car and he turns back around, I believe he takes a few awkwardly looking steps as if in a trance and then stands and stares at the house with his arms to his side as if standing at attention. Laura’s reaction was of confusion and then something catches her eye at the house and she lets out the scream. Again, that is just what I got out of it, I could be way off.

Madeleineferguson: So, were the “dramatic screams” that night only from Sheryl Lee?

Jugger: Yes, they did three takes if memory serves me correctly of the dramatic scream.

Cooperscoffeecup: (Long time reader, first time poster.) RE Palmer house, apologies if I have missed this being mentioned. Did I notice that the house was looking run down for one of the filming shoots, where the Sheriffs car was out front. Dead grass, dead trees and bushes. Then at the night shoot [Oct 9 to 10], (the notorious night filming posted on Instagram) it was back to a well kept house again, pot plants on doorstep gone, no dead trees? Does the house at somepoint no longer belong to Sarah (shock emoticon)

Jugger: I wasn’t there for the Wednesday [Oct 7] shoot at the Palmer house, but was there Saturday morning [Oct 10], as I thought I had heard that Wednesday was primarily interior filming at the house, but some exterior had to have been done otherwise why bring out the Twin Peaks police vehicle? There is always the chance that the Wednesday shoot do not take place at the same time as the Friday night shoot which was mostly exterior filming. I thought perhaps that when the show airs, the events from the Friday night/Saturday morning filming plays out and the filming from Wednesday is the next day, but I could be way off.

The home appears to has new owners, at least whenever the time frame of the Friday night show plays out, when Cooper and Laura (again if the character is in fact Laura) rang the door the people who answer are the new owners, and those people in that scene actually are the real-life new owners of the home in Everett Washington as they were given a tiny role [confirmed as Mary Reber, the owner, is in the cast list].

Jugger: The lawn during the Friday [Oct 9] night shoot looked green and properly maintained, it wasn’t overgrown or brown, at least from my vantage point. I didn’t notice any weeds overgrown nor did I notice any potted plants on the front patio by the door as I think someone mentioned during Wednesday [Oct 7] they thought they saw some. Perhaps as another person pointed out maybe the house featured during Wednesday is from a different time period than the house on Friday evening’s shoot. So difficult to tell but in just a few short years, all should be answered.

OneEyedJack: The lawn and front shrubs were cleaned up and tidy compared to Wednesday’s [Oct 7] disheveled appearance. This is true.

I can also say that they sprayed the pavement and lawns with water before filming. (could be for lighting purposes perhaps)

Jugger: There were others there besides me, some of whom who were there for the entire shoot [in Everett], I had gotten there around 11:45pm at night just after the cast/crew broke for lunch. I was not there when they shot the scene of Cooper/Palmer in street walking up to the house (aka TMZ footage) or what happened when they got to the front door. Someone there did say to me that the door is answered by the current homeowners and Cooper shows them his badge. I believe they let Cooper and Palmer inside. Another person told me they were inside for 20–30 minutes, perhaps they filmed something inside, that I don’t know, maybe someone else here has more information, or perhaps whatever takes place inside is a longer scene that they film later on a set in California, OR maybe later on up here, as everyone knows they tend to film stuff out of order a lot of the time. The house/lawn to me looked well kept, grass was green.

Yes the real-life homeowners were on location and at one time were mingled in with us fans. They are under NDA’s, but did say they have a small role and play the current owners of the home. They said filming was wrapping up Saturday morning and had said the crew had remodeled the living room, another fan there said he had heard the living room was to resemble the living room in FWWM, but why would they want to have it resemble the FWWM living room if the Palmer’s no longer owned the home? So I think what he was saying was speculation on his part but I remember the homeowner saying they had to remodel some of the house back to how they had it, and I thought he said living room.

I personally did not see any other actors on set except Kyle and Sheryl, for the five and half hours I was there, as they only filmed Kyle and Sheryl in the street between the car and the house (aka scream scene), they did some steadicam footage of the approach to the door without the actors there, Lynch also had them film the house with all the lights on and then as they filmed having all the lights turn off at the same time when he called for it and held on that image to about a count of 5 and went a few seconds beyond before yelling “cut”, again with no actors there. They then filmed the scene of Cooper/Laura in the car driving around, and finally a little bit more of them getting out of the car and taking a few steps towards the house. They then wrapped, actors left, followed by Lynch about ten minutes later who waived and smiled at the fans still there.

Remember if they don’t go with an alternate timeline or time travel scenario, its 25 years later so lots could have changed during that time.

Jugger: Yes I forgot to mention that, the roadway was watered down, I think they must have done it before I got there, but they did it at one time later on the early morning hours before they did the scene of them driving off in the car (which probably was footage needed as they approach the house). My guess is the scene will be a few minutes in length at best of what they shot Friday/Saturday morning.

Jugger: I don’t feel what we saw during the shoot Friday/Saturday morning was a dream sequence or that it would be the end of the series altogether, but I do feel it could easily pass as a cliffhanger for one of the episodes, OR (long shot) if they divide what is planned into two seasons, with a break in between, could see it as the end of the third season before a fourth season aired. To me at least it had that vibe of being the ending of an episode especially when they filmed just the house with the lights all on and then all turning off at the same time, that shot could pass as being a final scene before a fade to black at the end of an episode getting people talking and pumped for the next episode.

Whatever Lee (if she is Laura) sees that makes her scream she sees it while looking at the house. Something gets her attention and she looks up at it. I think she sees the image of either her father in a window or possibly Bob, after showing it, they then cut to the house itself and all the lights turning off. In two years or whenever it airs, I will look back and see if I was right, or if I was way off.

Ferguson: Last Fri night, I was able to see the monitor that Lynch was watching during filming, from about a 30 foot distance of course. What I saw seemed to be a woman with long blonde hair opening the door, Coop and Lee spoke with her for at least a few minutes and then the door was shut. I am not sure if they were filmed walking back down the stairs although I believe they were. Kyle did throw a bone to the fans (or maybe was just goofing around) by giving the house a very Cooperesque thumbs up.

tylergfoster: Not to mention, I believe there will be a scene inside the house as they did in fact film coming and going scenes.

Jugger: The woman who answered the door may be the real life woman who owns the house, she had long blonde hair and stood with the fans for a while on the street during the scream scene. [Again, this was confirmed as Mary Reber is in the cast] While she didn’t really talk, her husband did and said they had small parts as the current owners of the Palmer household so my thoughts is maybe that was their small scene answering the door when Coop/Laura rang the doorbell, her husband may have been in the doorway but out of the fan’s views, but I had not arrived on set when they filmed that. I do know that the current homeowner mentioned to me that Kyle when he came into the house asked to see “the fan” and when he did he said “Man, I haven’t seen that fan in 25 years!” As you can imagine they still have fans flock to the house all the time.

Speaking of monitors, I spotted something that probably isn’t newsworthy but will share. Before they shot the scream scene, they had us fans move up onto the main street that they were filming on (we were on a different street in front of the house that ran north of the house originally) but for that scene they had us move up on the main street the house is on that runs east/west that they were filming on, however we were standing behind a large “Road Closed” sign followed by crew and equipment, and then Lynch sitting in his chair looking at a monitor with his back towards us but we could see the monitor as he prepped the actors. Now just before this we were told photographs were ok but they really didn’t want video of the scene being taken and certainly not posted. I actually was filming at that time so I captured that moment when they say that I then I turned the video off and switched back to still photography. I want to say as they were still prepping the scene or perhaps after the first take, being one of the taller fans there, I could see Kyle walk up to David and talk to him and then he looked up at the house, he almost seem to be rehearsing the scene a tiny bit.

Looking back at the photos I took, on a few of them during this scene, on David’s monitor wasn’t of the street scene at all. As Kyle is talking to David, you can clearly see that on David’s monitor is a camera shot of inside the house in what appears to be one of the upstairs window as you can make out a lamp in a corner, as well as the window and some of the curtain. I just thought it was odd that was appearing on his monitor, as generally the director is looking at what is being filmed while the actors perform their scene, or maybe playback the previous scene. Just looked strange that on this large monitor was something not having to do with the scene they were working on.

I was then thinking that perhaps during the scream scene they had something in the window that the fans didn’t notice, since our attention would be focused on the actors in the street or what we could see of them as the crew made a nice semi-wall blocking most of what was being filmed (keyword “most”) while they were actually filming. That is probably far-fetched about something being in the window at that time, it’s probably something that they will shoot later or add later via CGI, etc. I just thought I would share even though it’s probably nothing at all.

vicksvapor77: The source that I first mentioned lives in the same neighborhood as the Palmer and Hayward homes and said there were signs by both houses weeks ago but they saw no further activity. I assume they originally planned on filming the Palmer house stuff we all saw last week earlier but it got shuffled due to actor schedules. But my source was super busy with work and missed a lot of potential day shoots. They easily could have filmed in the Hayward house already. But as of now, I’m going to assume it was just a Palmer house shoot until I see more evidence.

tylergfoster: The screaming was on camera, and as previously mentioned, they shot car convo leading up to the house and they also walked up and entered the house. The screaming occurs when they are leaving the house, almost certainly following an interior scene they haven’t yet shot. There was also dialogue, even if we couldnt hear it. And since these were Steadicam, the likelihood that they were done for promos seems even less likely as one would have to cut into the takes to make the promo described.

vicksvapor77: I spoke a bit with the Cultural Arts Manager from Everett, WA (via email) and to the best of their knowledge, they only filmed at two locations: the Palmer house on October 7th and 9th and at a warehouse on October 7th as well. They said as far as they know, NO filming took place at the Hayward house. (And they would know.)

Jugger: If memory serves me correctly that [a crane in the woods] was just north of the film site at the house, on a small dead end road where some homes were on, correct? When I arrived for the filming I parked a few blocks away and walked westbound towards the Palmer house. That road was obviously closed, so fans had to turn to the south and walk about a block. I did that, but since I wasn’t sure where I was going I turned down the short road, which mainly was a long driveway for some homes and saw a giant crane with a light illuminating everything, and heard a generator. When I left and finally go over to the correct street and up by the Palmer house where the fans were, I questioned to myself why they had a big light and generator going a street over as there were a few homes in between the Palmer house and where I first was at. This was different than the film crew lighting crane that was parked across the street from the Palmer house that was in plain view for anyone to see. Maybe I am thinking of something totally different than what was in that photo you posted. [The Woodman had posted a photo and presumably deleted it]

The Woodsman: Did anyone see Kyle karate chop a guy off his feet on the sidewalk before filming began? [in Everett]

The Woodsman: Btw, I wasnt joking about Kyle and the choreographed karate chop to someone. It was strange and was wondering if anyone happened to see it. It was quick and done only once

Jugger: Basically after Sheryl and Kyle leave the house and start to walk from the sidewalk to his car, Cooper starts to pause and act as if he is in a trance. Sheryl (assuming its Laura) seems a bit confused as to why Cooper is acting that way and seems nervous as she looks at him. He then turns and stares like a statue at the house with his arms to his side. As she watches him, SOMETHING at the house catches her attention, she then looks at the house and screams loudly. As to what she sees, we don’t know. They did three “scream” takes and it was roughly 2am Saturday morning when they did them. The production crew had notified neighbors beforehand that they could possible hear screaming late at night and that it was part of the filming. For this scene they had us actually move up to the same street they were filming on so the crew and some equipment was in our path but still probably 25–30 feet away from the filming. What I noticed was that when they were ready to film, the crew kind of form an unofficial barrier blocking much of the scene from the fans. I simply walked back down about 15–20 feet away from where we were previously standing and watched the scene play out. You can clearly see Sheryl react to something at the house and then she lets out the scream as she clearly is freaked out.

GordonCole: [deleted pic] TX plates on the car that Coop and Laura were driving around in

Jugger: [About Everett] I believe on Thursday they didn’t film at the house, instead they filmed at a park not that far from the house. I remember a few fans mentioning they tried to get access to it but there was some sort of long entrance that went downward, but I could be wrong in thinking that. I remember of the police officers who was working security at the Palmer house night shoot mention to me that they had filmed at a park and screams were heard during that filming sequence because he said they had a few 911 calls because of it and he was referring to the filming the night before the Palmer house night shoot.

vicksvapor77: I believe the secluded woods shoot was also on Wednesday, October 7. Wasn’t this went Balthazar posted the sign of Forgotten Creek? Not sure how much was filmed, the Everett official I mentioned pages ago now told me they may not have shot there, as it was too rainy/muddy. They also told me they filmed at a warehouse, I believe on the same day.

Jugger: [Pic of Everett shooting — notice the crew member in a grey jacket]

lynchaholic:

As far as the mysterious person on the other side of the street goes, it was a regular-sized crew member who was filming a low-angle shot with a handheld, probably so they have that scene from multiple angles. They must have done that scene about 10 times and from the south-facing side it definitely looks like he is walking in the shot but I also watched it from the east-facing perspective (I was about 12 feet behind David for these shots so I was able to see exactly what he saw on the monitor) and the guy was definitely out of the shot- partly because the big cameras were only filming Kyle and Sheryl from the waist up. And every time the primary camera would move right, the guy across the street would take choppy steps to his right, basically they were tracking them counter-clockwise. The guy on the other side of the street also ran the handheld for about 5 takes just going up and down the stairs from the sidewalk to the front door. I assume those are going to be POV shots but it might also be for a fast zoom effect (i.e. the shot from the back when Betty and Rita first walk into Silencio in “Mulholland Dr.”).

Ok,Bob:

Mt. Si Motel

Tylergfoster: [Oct 12 4:50pm] Here at the motel [Mount Si Motel — Blue Diamond from FWWM]. Very little going on so far but there is a sign under a tarp that presumably says “Blue Diamond.”

There is also an electronic highway sign placed down the road warning of intermittent stops 10/13 12am-5am, so this could be another late one.

Tylergfoster: I can hear hammers and stuff from the motel and there are cops in front of it so I doubt filming here is in any danger of being canceled.

Tylergfoster: 4am and the crew has finally arrived in full force. No filming yet AFAIK.

Mtsi: [Oct 13 9:00am] So…. did anyone see anything early this morning? I drove by the motel on my way into town for coffee, and saw 2 trucks, and a few crew packing up a large set piece (covered in plastic). Outside of that, nobody and nothing. Let us know.

NewShoes: They filmed for something like 1.5 to 2 hours. It was largely exterior. It used the set piece. There was a cast member we could fairly reliably recognize based on the scene and how Lynch addressed them. Couldn’t get 100% positive ID due to distance, rain, darkness, ambient noise, etc. There was at least one other person in the scenes whose appearance and behavior set off a lot of speculation.

NewShoes: The person we believe it to be has been previously observed filming. So, no surprise casting news.

NewShoes: Looks like I stirred up some debate about spoilers with my comments about the Mt. Si Motel filming. [Oct 12] Here’s the thing, we could not see certain things so we were left to draw conclusions about the action, as well as the people involved. The actors were always a good distance away, did not approach us and did not talk to us. Lynch’s directorial comments were directed in the other direction and largely impossible to make out clear. Finally, someone else had observed certain set details that I was not able to verify personally. In my opinion, the details of that set piece are a pretty big spoiler so I’m not really looking to be the first person to post about it on the Intertubes for all concerned.

My purpose in posting about the filming was to provide verification that it did indeed take place and state how tricky it was to actually know what was happening. Not to taunt or gloat.

Here’s another take on what we (or at least I saw):

Man in black through door

He nears room of smoke and light

The woman backs away

NewShoes: One further comment about the Mt. Si Motel location:

No Blue Diamond sign. No phonebooth. Existing sign did not appear to be filmed. The location may not have been functioning as The Blue Diamond for the purposes of filming.

sugarhigh: On 9/23/15 I was in North Bend to watch filming. While I was driving around looking for production trucks/ filming locations I was stopped in front of the Grange across from the Mt. Si Motel when a makeup trailer heading SE on North Bend Way drove by. I think it was a single trailer with only one door on it, but the neon green tape had ‘Richard B.’ written on it. Maybe the trailer had more than one door, but only one door with a name on it…can’t remember.

The filming I did end up watching that day had only new cast members that I could tell.

What was pretty rad though was, later that evening I was standing on the side of the road next to the Mt. Si Motel talking to a local TP fan when a cop car, followed by a new characters car (with a camera mounted to the drivers door), followed by a van with Lynch in it, followed by another cop drove by us filming a driving scene.

We crossed the road with the idea to hide in the bushes across the street so if they drove around to do another take, we’d be hidden in the bushes but technically might end up being in an actual TP scene, though we wouldn’t actually be seen. They didn’t come back by, but instead looped around and drove back to that day’s filming location. Very exciting day.

At the next days shoot, 9/24/15, for the Horne residence, I was parked across from the makeup trailers and the only names on them were ‘Mark’, ‘Johnny’ and ‘Mrs. Horne’. I actually saw Jan D’Arcy and Robert Bauer come out of makeup and go in to wardrobe. I saw someone go in and out of the ‘Mark’ trailer, but I’m pretty sure it was just a crew member.

Anyway, has anyone here actually seen a trailer that said ‘R. Beymer’ or did my ‘Richard B.’ info just get switched around? Also, hasn’t someone mentioned Balthazar Getty’s name as being ‘Richard’? [People speculated this as he was in Everett, but nobody actually confirmed it]

sugarhigh: Ha, OK, he’s [Jerry, who mentioned the ‘R. Beymer’ trailer] the one I told so it just got mixed up. It was definitely ‘Richard B.’

NewShoes: [when asked about who was in the Mount Si shooting] I’m not willing to make a definitive statement about who was there because I don’t have a 100% certain ID.

One could draw reasonable expectations based on who was photographed at Olallie earlier that afternoon.
