The Exorcist filming locations - 38 years later

0:25 right now I'm outside DC in Georgetown

0:25 University you'll notice this bridge

0:27 behind me straight over there is on the

0:29 very spinning scenes of the movie The

0:46 Exorcist over here is the big wall seen

0:46 so prominently in the movie here's the

0:49 stairs and graffiti by some vandals that

0:53 are not fans of The Exorcist classic oh

0:56 there's a female she's scared of The

0:58 Exorcist demon

1:19 I know how scared you must be following

1:21 me up the EXC but trust me I'm more

1:24 afraid right now than you are watching

1:26 at home all this has been changed over

1:29 the last 28 30 years there's Jr Straight

1:32 Ahead holding the tripod right up here

1:35 where the Shrubbery was was where the

1:42 window that the priest was thrown out

1:42 father Caris was thrown out bounced a

1:45 couple times

2:10 right behind me is the Exorcist house

2:13 and the windows that The Exorcist demon

2:16 peaked its eyes out of not really there

2:18 was no eye peeking in the movie but it

2:20 sounds good for this video peek over the

2:22 little fence here you see that door is

2:24 used prominently in the movie okay honey

2:27 this is father Dyer hi Father hello

2:31 hi

2:33 Mrs goodbye father goodbye

3:12 mine here's a little area you might

3:12 recognize from the movie Taxi was right

3:14 here she came down those steps walked

3:17 right around in this area here

3:36 I think I'll walk home tonight Mike okay

3:36 you take that drop by my

3:43 house here's where the famous shot where

3:43 she walked along this way was and the

3:44 music started just follow me this way

3:46 and listen to the

3:57 music bet all the inhabitants living

3:59 here have no idea this movie was filmed

4:06 here there's definitely a lot of college

4:08 kids walking around all around us none

4:11 of them realize the legendary grounds

4:14 they're walking

4:16 on this might look familiar to you why

4:19 because it was used in the movie right

4:21 over here leaning against this pole it's

4:24 where the detective and the priest had

4:25 their little discussion is that it look

4:27 father this is hard for you please

4:30 I understand but but for priests on the

4:34 campus here you're the psychiatrist you

4:36 know who was sick at the time who was

4:38 and I mean this kind of sickness you'd

4:40 know that this spot might also look

4:42 familiar we got the chapel behind us got

4:45 the little area here in front of the

4:46 chapel where they had the discussion

4:47 about movies do you like movies they did

4:50 hey father wait a you like movies very

4:54 much well I get passes to the best shows

4:56 in town Mrs K though you know she gets

4:59 tired you know never likes to go it's

5:02 too bad yeah I hate to go alone you know

5:04 I love to talk film you discust to

5:09 critique you want to see a film with me

5:12 and then right over here is the stairway

5:15 there's another plane flies over me the

5:17 Caris went up inside that doorway right

5:20 there I

5:23 lied you look like Sal

5:27 Mino that plane is really bothering me

5:30 hopefully it's not blocking out my

5:32 voice or maybe The

5:34 Exorcist is trying to sop

5:38 this the bells are now ringing behind us

5:41 is now what time is it

5:43 now it's now 8:00 and the Bells Are

5:46 Ringing right here in front of The

5:47 Exorcist Chapel it's a little creepy

5:50 there's a waterfall over here behind

5:53 us and the bells have now been rung

6:58 so I'm now actually inside The Exorcist

6:59 Chapel

7:00 there's no one in here except me and

7:02 JR this is a little

7:14 creepy all the stained glass windows are

7:14 the same those stained glass windows are

7:17 exactly the same as they were in the

7:19 movie remember also oh Lord thy servant

7:22 Mary

7:29 Caris who has gone before us the sign of

7:29 face and sleeps the sleep of

7:37 Peace Lord I am not worthy to receive

7:37 you but only say the word and I shall be

7:40 healed the preacher stood there the

7:43 priest and right over

7:46 here there's where the statue was

7:48 desecrated when oh my

7:58 God one thing interesting about the

7:58 movie The Exorcist is that in the

7:59 beginning of the movie there's actually

8:01 a movie being made inside the movie so

8:04 it's a movie inside a movie and right

8:06 behind me is where one of the opening

8:09 scenes was

8:10 filmed right here in front of this

8:13 massive structure all right hustle

8:15 background and action hasn't there been

8:18 enough

8:20 killing is

8:29 this Haring off this camp

8:34 this might look a little different just

8:35 because it's Barren of people but in the

8:37 movie there was hundreds and hundreds of

8:39 protesters filming a scene from the

8:41 beginning of The Exorcist right here on

8:43 these

8:49 stairs come on we're all concerned with

8:51 human rights for God's sake but the kids

8:54 who want to get an education have a

8:56 right

9:02 can't really go any farther from here

9:03 because the door is locked but if you

9:06 look straight inside here up those

9:08 stairs is where another scene where he

9:11 walked up those stairs see if we can get

9:13 a better Angle now shooting through the

9:14 glass window but if you come down

9:17 low you can kind of see the

9:20 stairway just barely where he walked up

9:36 Daven amen
