History Characters / TwinPeaksSupernaturalEntities

* KickTheSonOfABitch: If there was any victim that fully deserved what BOB did to them, it was Windom Earle.

* GentleGiant: His speaking voice is calm and pleasant, and he's dressed smartly. It's difficult to imagine him hurting a fly. That said, he is a creature of the Black Lodge, a world of pure evil... but is also clearly a major figure in the White Lodge whenever he appears in black and white, so his [[IncrediblyLamePun true colors]] are unknown.

* MirrorMonster: One of the most iconic in television history.

-->'''Douglas Milford:''' ...By our meager moral definitions, they may both be "good" and "evil," and those precious distinctions of outs mean nothing to them.

* NatureIsNotNice: The Lodge denizens have a strong connection with nature. BOB is frequently compared to owls , while the entrance to the lodges on Earth is a ring of ageless stones deep in the forest. Hawk explains that the White Lodge is where ''nature and man meet'', where the Black Lodge is the place you must "go through" to reach the White Lodge.

* EvilSoundsDeep: When he's not laughing maniacally, BOB is a GutturalGrowler.

* GutturalGrowler: Speaks with a much lower voice than his somewhat anxious host.

* GutturalGrowler: They sound (and look) like Music/TomWaits impersonators.

* EvilSmellsBad: A sign of BOB's presence is an inexplicable smell of burning oil or gasoline.

** ''The Return'' then loosely extends the metaphor: [[spoiler:he also represents the "rape" of the environment by nuclear testing and the defilement of humanity by the H-bomb.]]

* FusionDance: [[spoiler: A chilling image of BOB's face mixed with Evil Cooper's face in episode 5 of ''The Return'' seems to imply that BOB has merged with the Evil Doppelganger of Cooper that he created but leaves the Coopelganger in control while residing dormant within him.]]

* GutturalGrowler: He has a low, raspy voice.

* HumanoidAbomination: BOB is obviously a kind of demon or something, but he looks like a perfectly average human.

* TomTheDarkLord: He is a demonic entity who feeds on fear and pleasure and comes from an alternate plane of reality that consists of pure evil. He goes by the name BOB.

* WeUsedToBeFriends: With MIKE; before the events of the series the two seemed to have a VillainousFriendship.
* WildHair: Long, grey, and messy. [[spoiler: Given enough time, the hair of the Cooper doppelganger he creates becomes extremely similar.]]

* DeathBySex: It killed Sam Colby and Tracey Barberato when they were hooking up.

An eyeless woman who dwells in a bizarre steampunk house afloat in a cosmic void. She aids Cooper in his flight from the Black Lodge, against the wishes of her unseen "mother", but is ejected into space in the process. She later reappears in Twin Peaks when the police go to a set of coordinates left in a capsule by Major Briggs, and is taken into their protection. Is eventually revealed to be the true Diane, who was transformed into Naido by the Woodsmen after being raped Mr. C. After he and BOB are finally destroyed, she is able to finally return to her human form.

* TheSociopath: BOB is a vicious entity who feeds upon agony he subjects his victims to. He feels nothing but sadistic joy at all the suffering he has caused the people of Twin Peaks.

* AnthropomorphicPersonification: [[spoiler:Given his possession of Leland and his role in Leland's backstory, it's not hard to read BOB as the personification of child abuse.]]

* BeardOfEvil: The woodsmen have straggly matted facial hair. [[UncannyValley Some of them even appear to wear large, obviously fake beards]].

* NuclearNasty: In ''The Return'', he is implied to be a product of environmental ruin caused by [[spoiler: the H-bomb, or at least as having fed on the suffering it brought about]].

* NuclearNasty: It's ''very'' strongly implied their existence is somehow connected to nuclear tests that knocked out part of America's desert wilderness, making [[MindScrew various strange and usually bad things happen]].

* EmotionEater: They feed on "garmonbozia", the pain and suffering of mortal beings.

* EvilIsHammy: Nearly everything he says is delivered in an over-the-top style, and when he's not talking we often seem him grinning or screaming maniacally.
