This Sunday a Brooklyn venue will be transformed into Twin Peaks, or as the organizers behind the event say: into "a creepy logging town in rural Washington, where a beautiful naked corpse awaits discovery." We're told there will be themed cocktails (the White/Black Lodge, the Red Room, and the Leland Palmer), trivia, a screening of the best parts of season two, a cherry stem tying contest, Twin Peaks Burlesque, doughnuts, coffee, cherry pie, owls, a hidden Laura Palmer Barbie doll, and a Miss Twin Peaks pageant! Bonus: being transported to a David Lynch fantasy world will only cost you 5 bucks. Get your dance moves ready, ladies.
If you attend the event at the Bell House this weekend, send us your photos or tag them "Gothamist" on Flickr. Consider this your invite, the original Miss Twin Peaks flyer:
