Conception of Grapheme

The impetus for the series Twin Peaks was the mystery of who killed Laura Palmer. When production began on the pilot episode, "Northwest Passage", serial creators David Lynch and Mark Frost had decided that the murderer would be revealed every bit Leland Palmer, Laura's father. During the filming of a scene in the pilot taking place in Laura's room, Frank Silva, a set dresser during the shootings just also an actor, accidentally trapped himself in the room prior to filming by inadvertently moving a dresser in front of the door. Lynch had an image of Silva stuck in the room and thought that it could fit into the serial somewhere, and told Silva that he would similar for him to be in the series. Lynch had Silva crouch at the foot of Laura's bed and look through the confined of the human foot-board, as if he were "trapped" behind them, and filmed it, then had Silva leave the room and filmed the empty room; after reviewing the footage, Lynch liked the presence that Silva brought to the scene and decided that he would put him somewhere in the series.

After that twenty-four hours, a scene was beingness filmed in which Palmer's mother experiences a vision which frightens her; at the fourth dimension, the script did not indicate what Mrs Palmer had seen to frighten her. Lynch was pleased with how the scene turned out, but a crew member informed him that information technology would take to be re-shot, considering a mirror in the scene had inadvertently picked up someone's reflection. When Lynch asked who information technology was, the coiffure fellow member replied that it had been Silva. Lynch considered this a "happy blow," and decided at that signal that the unnamed character to be played past Silva would be revealed as Palmer's true killer.

Origin

Killer BOB is a demonic entity from the Black Lodge, a realm of pure evil which exists on an alternate plane of reality. According to fable, he is a night spirit who existed long before humanity. However, later flashbacks show that he was either born or released into the physical globe following a 1945 nuclear examination in White Sands, New Mexico, when the image of BOB was seemingly regurgitated from a white figure (probable the demonic entity known as Judy/Jowday).

For the next several decades, he spent well-nigh of his time on Earth possessing human beings, although he also travels in the form of an owl. While possessing humans, he commits horrible crimes to elicit pain, fear, and suffering from those effectually him; these feelings, which Black Lodge residents refer to collectively as "garmonbozia" human action as a form of nourishment. Physically, garmonbozia takes the shape of creamed corn.

In the film Fire Walk With Me, MIKE accuses Leland of stealing the corn he had canned "above the store". Secondly, garmonbozia refers to "pain and suffering". BOB, and perhaps MIKE or other inhabitants of the Lodge, feed on garmonbozia as it is mentioned past name and/or description throughout the series and moving picture past Mike, Bob, the Tremonds, and The Human being from Some other Place.

BOB spent several years with MIKE, feeding off of fear and pain until MIKE "saw the face of God" and cutting off his own arm. BOB then lurked effectually the Great Northern Hotel for twoscore years. When Leland Palmer was a boy, Robertson lived in a white house near his grandfather's summer house at Pearl Lakes. He taunted Leland, asking "do you lot wanna play with fire, little boy?" BOB told Leland that he wanted to play, and then "opened" Leland and went inside him.

Twin Peaks (1990-1991)

Dale Cooper showtime learns of Killer BOB's existence in a vision, in which he encounters another entity named MIKE. In this vision, Cooper learns that BOB was in life a serial killer who raped and murdered young women with MIKE as his cohort; MIKE somewhen repented, removing his left arm in order to be rid of the tattoo that he shared with BOB. At the beginning of the second season, one of BOB'due south intended victims, Ronnette Pulaski, awakens from a coma induced by her torture at BOB'south hands, at which time she identifies BOB equally Laura'due south killer.

In his dying breaths, Leland states when he was a child he saw BOB in a dream and invited him inside, earlier stating that he never knew when BOB was in control of his body.

After Leland dies, Cooper engages in a philosophical debate with Sheriff Truman and Albert Rosenfield over how real BOB was, and whether or not BOB was in fact a concrete incarnation of Leland's repressed personal demons. Although the men cannot agree on a unifying thought, they do come to the conclusion that BOB is a manifestation of "the evil that men do".

BOB uses Dale's doppelganger every bit a host.

Following Leland'south death, BOB takes the grade of an owl in the woods exterior Twin Peaks, and isn't seen again for a while. In the terminal episode, Cooper ventures into the Black Social club to apprehend his old partner, rogue FBI Agent Windom Earle, who is attempting to harness the power of the Social club for himself.

Twin Peaks: The Return (2017)

25 years afterwards, BOB is still inside of Cooper'southward doppelganger, who at this bespeak is operating as a career criminal. Over the years, he's inverse from a completely maniacal psychopath to a calmer and more than disciplined mastermind capable of enacting complex long-term schemes, due to Cooper's intelligence and self-command. This has enabled him to become a powerful law-breaking boss with a far-reaching network of assassins and operatives under his control. Notwithstanding, he still revels in causing pain and suffering, needlessly tormenting and killing people, including his own underlings.

Information technology is unsaid that he raped Audrey Horne also, or at to the lowest degree took advantage of her sexually, since he got her meaning with a kid, Richard, who grew upwardly to be a psychopathic criminal in his own right.

Cooper'south doppelganger is destined to return to the Black Lodge with BOB at a specific time, only avoids doing then through the use of another doppelganger of Dale Cooper known as Dougie Jones, who is sent to the lodge in his place whilst the real Cooper himself is returned back to reality. After the doppelganger is imprisoned having crashed his car and been found in possession of a automobile gun and a dogs leg, he observes himself in the mirror and his face briefly appears equally BOB's once over again, confirming that the demon is still inhabiting the trunk of Cooper's doppelganger.

Seeking to find another demonic entity known every bit Judy/Jowday for unknown reasons, he follows a series of coordinates that Ray had given him, which lead to a location in the wilderness. Suspecting another trap, he has Richard go there get-go, where Richard is electrocuted and disintegrated.

BOB then gets Judy'southward real coordinates from Diane'due south doppelganger, leading him dorsum to Twin Peaks. However, this also turns out to be a trap; instead of being taken to the destination he was seeking, he is instead teleported to the Twin Peaks constabulary station by the Fireman, an entity from the White Order (a realm of pure goodness and love, diametrically opposed to the Black Society). While he waits in Sheriff Frank Truman's office, the existent Cooper calls in, and secretarial assistant Lucy Brennan realizes the doppleganger is a fake. She shoots him expressionless, and BOB escapes the body in a glowing orb. Just and so, prisoner Freddy Sykes engages BOB in a fight, attacking the orb with a supernatural glove given to him past the Fire fighter. Freddy pummels BOB through the footing difficult enough to open a pigsty to Hell, then knocks the orb into the stratosphere, shattering it into pieces that fall into the pit of burn down and finally destroying BOB once and for all.

Trivia

• In Traces to Nowhere, Sarah Palmer sees a vision of BOB while hugging Donna. The vision consists of BOB crouching at the foot of Laura'due south bed. In the script, the vision featured a long, empty hospital corridor, with BOB running down it towards the camera at full speed. The scene, as scripted, was indeed filmed, but accounted also "freaky" by Lynch and never used, except for a brief clip of it during Ronette's dream of Bob during the 2nd flavour opener.
• In real life, BOB'due south role player Frank Silva passed abroad on September 13, 1995 at the age of 45. For the 2022 revival series, the use of CGI and archive footage is used to implement BOB into several scenes, with ane being when the doppelganger of Dale Cooper looks into the mirror and his face up slowly changes to resemble BOB's. The 2d episode of the revival is dedicated to Frank Silva.
• Every bit Twin Peaks was one of the principal inspirations for the animated series Gravity Falls, BOB may be the influence for Beak Cipher, the principal adversary of the show. Both characters comport many similarities.
• After Dale Cooper changes the timeline by saving Laura Palmer, it is unclear what becomes of BOB in this new timeline. According to the novel The Final Dossier (in which Laura only "disappeared" rather than being murdered), it is revealed that Leland had killed himself a twelvemonth following her disappearance. Whether or not this is BOB's influence is unknown.
