Lonely Planet review

Movie buffs may recognize the setting of 1973's shockfest The Exorcist : two of little Regan's hapless victims met their fates at the vertiginous Exorcist Stairs. Unsuperstitious Washingtonians often use them as an exercise tool - run up the super-steep stairs and you'll understand. They are hidden next-door to the Exxon Station on M St, almost directly across from Key Bridge, in an appropriately dark and creepy corner.
