The world ofTwin Peakshas so many iconic characters that narrowing them down is nearly impossible.
Knowing its origin story prompts a rewatch of Mulholland Drive to see the connections to Twin Peaks.
It could also explain Audrey in The Return.
Ben Horne invites those plagues into the city through his business deals and his personal behavior.
Horne is an incredible antagonist, played expertly by Richard Beymer.
However, it’s all part of the whole that makesTwin Peaksso unique.

Donna perfectly encapsulates the teen elements of the show.
She saw enough of Laura’s private life to permanently change her perception of the world.
This is partly due to her outstanding chemistry with Ashbrook’s Bobby.
Her storyline with Amanda Seyfried’s Becky Burnett inThe Returnis brief but further enforces the importance of this narrative.
But the beauty ofTwin Peaksis in those inexplicable mysteries, and Audrey’s life remains a question mark.
He’s a tremendous force for good, stopping at nothing to try and save the town.
1Laura Palmer
Played By Sheryl Lee
Laura Palmer is the core ofTwin Peaks.
Three decades later, Laura Palmer still manages to seem ahead of the curve as a radical television character.
She’s a resilient woman who proves to be caring and compassionate while also having moments of cruelty.
She’s wonderfully hopeful and filled with love yet suffers in such a profoundly horrifying way.
