Where Is Twilight Set
The Twilight saga is set primarily in Forks, Washington, a small town on the Olympic Peninsula in the Pacific Northwest. The story centers on the Cullen family and their vampire community living in the surrounding forests and nearby reserves.
Real Locations Used in Twilight
While the films use CGI and studio sets, many scenes were shot in real locations across the Pacific Northwest. Portland, Oregon, and nearby areas in Washington stood in for several town and forest scenes.
Twilight Setting and Atmosphere
The rainy, overcast climate of Forks is central to the series atmosphere, reinforcing the vampires' need for concealment and the moody tone of the story.
