      <review>These murals blend right in to Olde Towne Saint Helens and look like they've always been there. Is it Saint Helens or St. Helens? Anyway, you can leave your car right at the scene of Bella's rescue to scope out the other nearby film spots and talk up the locals. Apparently almost everyone in town has read the books. Maybe that doesn't distinguish them so much from any other town, but they are happy to tell you about having Twilight filmed there and a few have some eerie stories about local ghosts. Halloweentown was also filmed there. Now the town becomes Halloweentown every October.</review>

      <review>In the book, Bella and friends find a department store. But in the Twiliight movie the girls try on prom dresses in Petite Jolie. In real life this is Angel's Hair Salon. But step inside to see Catherine Hardwicke's director chair. It's still in there. And the owner can tell you about her role as an extra. I didn't get my hair cut. But I bet I could have learned even more if I had. </review>

      <review>WOa!   So many dresses and wigs and any kind of adornment you can think of. What is this place doing out here? Well, selling prom dresses to the Twilight crew, of course!  But seriously, its like walking into Mary Poppins' hand bag. There's just more and more and more. Vintage, costume, trendy.... all there.</review>

      <review>So, after the high speed car ride (that was really poor judgement Edward...Bella's not immortal), Edward takes Bella to a little place for some dinner. You know, the scene with the weird haired waitress. Supposedly, that place was created in the BOLDR office. It's really an old house. </review>

      <review>The bookstore has vanished.  But you can still walk past. A local attorney keeps office there.  I didn't get a picture or find anything about about this spot. </review>

      <review>It's a real house!  Twilight used the inside and out. And it's a prettier house in real life than it seems in the movie. It is an occupied private residence.  There is a little sign in the yard asking visitors to enjoy it from the street. This is a little walk from Olde Towne. But WALK.  It's a dead end, dirt road. Park on the street below if you're too short winded to walk all the way.</review>
