The first-ever teaser from the streaming network started off with the bird's eye view of the scenic backgrounds as a narrator began talking about the show's location.
"Location sometimes becomes a character," the narrator said. "There are a lot of holy places up here, a lot of sacred places. I can't put my finger on how I would describe it. It just touches something in the psyche."
The short clip continued as a bunch of crew members unveiled a large signage that says "Welcome To Twin Peaks. Population: 51, 201." The video then ended with a blurred scene and in it is a white-haired man in tuxedo outfit who looked like he was shaking the camera.
The first two seasons of "Twin Peaks" series first aired in 1990 on ABC until it was cancelled the following year. The mystery-thriller will return after almost three decades as a limited series on Showtime.
