Speaking of Deer Meadow, I’d like to officially clarify that I have no clue where the hell it is. In the pilot episode, Cooper says Teresa Banks was murdered in a town in the southwest corner of the state. In Fire Walk With Me, Deer Meadow is suggested to be in Oregon, since Cole, Desmond, and Stanley all meet in Portland (though it’s just as possible they drive up into Washington, since I’m pretty sure Teresa’s floating body crossed the state line). But in the book, Deer Meadow is in a county neighboring Twin Peaks, with Carl Rodd’s trailer park not far from his hometown. A follow-up to The Secret History of Twin Peaks, titled The Final Dossier and written by Mark Frost. The novel fills in details of the 25 years between the second and third seasons, and expands on some of the mysteries raised in the new episodes. [11] The book states that the Great Northern opened in 1928 and Ben Horne was born in 1940. But Episode 18 shows a footage of Ben at the Great Northern groundbreaking. Similarly, the Access Guide states the Hotel groundbreaking to be in 1927 and using the same 1940 birthdate for Ben. In his previous novels The List of 7 and The 6 Messiahs, Frost proved adept at combining historical fact, conspiratorial speculation, and occult lore. He goes one further here, painting a completely paranoid and secretive world where the very definition of reality is always up for grabs. In the Access Guide, Harry team number is #10, Ed is #60, Hank is #81 and Stan Lillas is #80 but in the dossier, Harry is #45, Ed is #65 and Hank is #80.

The side comments and footnotes throughout the book are revealed to be the work of a new character: present-day FBI Agent Tamara Preston, who was given the assignment by now-Deputy Director Gordon Cole. Preston writes that whatever happened to Major Briggs and Agent Cooper is classified as “many levels above Top Secret.” Though there is no confirmation in the scant publicity material for the new episodes, it’s probably a safe bet to conclude that Agent Preston will appear in Season 3.

Rather than saucer-like, according to a recently published attribution in a Newsweek Special Edition: Life Beyond Earth?: The Mission to Find the Answer, “They were silvery and shiny and seemed to be shaped like a pie plate,’ Arnold would later tell the Chicago Daily Tribune.” [4] The Archivist notes in this portion of the dossier that Douglas Milford has been promoted to “Special Agent for Continental Air Command” since his experience at Roswell. Roswell is covered in the preceding portion of The Secret History of Twin Peaks, so I will not assume to cover it too much here, but I would like to mention it briefly. Arnold’s sighting and Roswell’s incident make 1947 the flagship year for UFOologists, but there is another date that means so much to the world at large and to us since Twin Peaks: The Return, July 16, 1945. How might they tie together? I would like to guide our attention however briefly to a theory by Edgar Mitchell (1930-2016). “The aliens that crashed at Roswell, New Mexico, in 1947, Mitchell said, had been observing American atomic testing at nearby White Sands.” [5] It was his belief that the speed at which the two alien crafts that were observing the tests led to the time hop and their crash in 1947.

All of these were presented in traditional format, as fictional presentations, with the exception that oftentimes, the authors’ names would be absent from the covers. Dr. Dan Hayward fills out an intake exam form on Coulson, who was one of the three missing children from Jacoby's 9/12/47 article. Interestingly, this is when Coulson gets her infamous tattoo/brand/scar. A picture from the Bookhouse, showing one book associated with each member of the Bookhouse Boys, contains a hidden message. There are a few hints about the fates of characters after the final episode of Season 2, but most of them are concerned with the immediate aftermath and not with the long stretch of 25 years before the start of events in the upcoming third season:

Actually, that’s mostly it. There really aren’t any more answers about the deluge of cliffhangers for the end of the series. The book also provides a somewhat less positive take on the beings of the White Lodge, with Briggs mentioning that he felt no benevolence or reassurance during his abduction, and Milford indicating the cosmic forces at play in Twin Peaks likely are indifferent to humanity, using us only when necessary. While the supernatural beings on the series could often be quite menacing or at least ominous, someone like the Giant was very clearly established to be emanating from a place of empathy and love. The novel appears to muddy that water.

In Hawk's journal "The Ballad of Big Ed and Norma and Nadine," there is a photo of Ed and Norma captioned "Big Ed and Norma at the RR." However, the photo is actually the two at the Roadhouse; a production still from the Pilot episode. Of course, this could be bullshit and the new season might take place on Mars. We’ll have to wait and see.David Lynch’s films often depict spiritual states of being, the characters’ inner worlds turned into external reality, the line between concrete and abstract blurred. Mark Frost has a considerably more grounded approach, but he still possesses an equally firm grasp of encountering the otherworldly, bringing a pulp sensibility to Lynch’s existential mazes like a weird but beautiful combination of Lovecraft and Kafka. For those obsessed with hidden secrets and occult truths, Frost understands the appeal of sifting through a collection of strange documents over a pot of coffee, of discovering a new world and getting increasingly lost in that world, and this novel provides that exact experience. The book contains various alleged continuity errors with the series. Indeed, author Mark Frost purposely decided for the book to be a dossier composed of a set of documents authored by various people, in which the facts presented could be in-universe errors made by these characters, even purposely including typos or statements that seem untrue, his reasoning being that actual historical documents are filled with inaccuracies. [1] In The Final Dossier, it is stated that Harry Truman was a source for parts of the dossier, passing some data to Briggs while remaining uncredited: [2] this may solve some of the discrepancies.
