Forks, Washington – Twilight Series

Ever since Bella fell for Edward — and readers fell for the vampire-themed series by Stephenie Meyer — visitors in the tens of thousands have flocked to Forks, Wash. A good starting point for “Twilight” tourists is the Forks Chamber of Commerce. Visitors can get maps, brochures and other information about “Twilight” destinations, including Forks City Police Department, where Bella’s father works; Forks Outfitters, where Bella works; and Forks High School, where Bella first meets Edward. At the chamber, visitors can also have their photo taken with Bella’s truck and see a lighted gazebo like the one Bella and Edward danced in at the prom. “We love being the center of the ‘Twilight world,’ ” said the chamber’s director, Marcia Bingham. “We have a well-trained staff that speaks fluent ‘Twilight.’ ” Two tourism companies, Dazzled by Twilight and Team Forks, also offer guided tours of Twilight-related sights in the region.

Thanks Mel!

Famous Movie Locations – Town from ‘The Twilight Saga – Forks, WA

Moviefone has picked Forks, Washington as it’s famous movie Location this week.
The article talks about the town.

Check it all out here.

Excerpt:

The City of Forks, one of the rainiest places in America, had a sparkly light shine on it in 2005 — and the name of that light was Edward Cullen. Located in Washington’s rain forest, the town had fallen on rough times as its timber industry declined. The economy ran mainly on sports fisherman who traveled to nearby Olympic National Park; all that changed, however, after Stephenie Meyer published her first book.

Thanks Andie!
