The Exorcist (1973)

All the exterior locations for The Exorcist were shot in Georgetown.  The house itself looks similar, however, the production added a roof to the structure (as their is an attic scene) and added a new front to the house to make it bigger.

 

More famous than the house are the stairs.  As in the movie, they are right next to the house and are very steep.  All long the wall are various Exorcist quotes fans have written over the years.

 

 

 

Here is the university campus where Ellen Burstyn shot the movie-within-a-movie.  The path she takes home from the university is actually real, no Hollywood tomfoolery here!  (By the way, directly across the street from the Exorcist house is the bar that inspired St. Elmo's Fire.)

  

 

Here is the bridge where Ellen Burstyn meets the priest to discuss the exorcism of her daughter.
