Benjamin Horne

Ben Horne is a business mogul who owns "The Great Northern Hotel", department store "Horne's" and the casino/brothel "One-Eyed Jacks". He is well-known and respected person in the town of Twin Peaks.
I see him as a successful and capable businessman but also as a bad and dishonest person. Ben Horne would do whatever it takes to make more money and to expand his business empire, including killing the people that stand in his way. His biggest threat was Catherine Martell, the owner of the Packard Saw Mill, so he burned down her mill with her inside it.
He doesn't show any positive emotions, not even towards his daughter Audrey who he loves very much.
I think Benjamin Horne is the only one from Twin Peaks who would fit in today's world.
He is cold, heartless and emotionless, just like the world we are living in.
