This was the home of the fictional McNeill family in the hugely popular 1973 film The Exorcist where young Regan was possessed by the devil. Much of the movie was shot in this house and a special addition was built on to it during filming that has since been removed. The home does in fact sit on top of the famed "Hitchcock Steps" where Father Damien Karras falls to his death at the movie's climax. These days there's a privacy fence that surrounds the home, which still frequently attracts curiosity seekers.
