My hidden gem is located in my hometown and capital of the United

States (๑˃ᴗ˂)ﻭ

In Georgetown, Washington DC there is a spooky presence hidden within these stairs...\(º □ º l|l)/

The Exorcist Stairs! These stairs were made famous for being in the 1973 classic hit horror movie, The Exorcist!

This is where Father Damien Karras fell down the stairs and died in the movie.
Our mayor even recognized the stairs as an important part of our Washingtonian history!

I'd be more than happy to be your ghoulish guide for DC if you ever come to visit ( ‾́ ◡ ‾́ )

    If you come to Seoul, you can see commuters walking up or down a long steep escalator like those stairs every morning.
