The room with the tiled floor, red drapes, and dancing dwarf in Twin Peaks. Wonderful surrealism.

The apartment in Rear Window with the view of all the neighbors- the honeymooners, Miss Torso, the lady with the dog, and of course the Thorwalds.

I remember reading somewhere that Miss Torso had a fully functioning studio apartment, so she just lived there on days she had to be there. Pretty neat all-in-one set.

It’s not quiet without the Prisoner festivals, to be honest. It’s a tourist venue and is always packed when it’s open to visitors.

Pern, Southern Continent. John Varley’s Eight Worlds and also Gaea because how much fun would THAT be? The Bloomenwald. Narnia. I’m not much for slice of life universes, I want weird and different.
