For the first Exorcist, starring Linda Blair and Ellen Burstyn, the interior shots of the house were done at the CECO studios in NYC. The long steps on the side of the house, down which Father Karras tumbled to his death, are on M Street in Georgetown, Washington D.C. Archeological dig scenes were filmed at the site of the ancient city of Nineveh in Hatra, which is now al-Hadr, Iraq. Not sure about the others. We visited Georgetown and the house The Exorcist was filmed in. Interesting fact: The stairs (dubbed The Hitchcock Stairs) that Father Karras fell down are not attached to that house, but rather a couple of buildings down. We walked up and down the stairs and got breathless, as they are very steep.
