Georgetown is a neighborhood located in Washington, D.C., on the East Coast of the United States. It is the home of Georgetown University, which is the oldest Catholic and Jesuit institution of higher learning in the country. In the horror genre, Georgetown is best known as the primary setting of the 1971 novel The Exorcist, which was adapted into a feature film in 1973, The Exorcist, directed by William Friedkin.
Georgetown is the place to go if you are in the market for twelve-year-old girls with skin disorders who can turn their head completely around and projectile vomit pea soup all over you. It's also the best place to find crisis of faith priests, alcoholic film directors and movie stars with a penchant for repeatedly taking the Lord's name in vain. Oh yeah... and if you are ever searching for an ugly little demonic bastard named Pazuzu - then Georgetown is the place for you!
