This isn’t what you think, and actually requires you to have seen the extended version of The Exorcist before it scares you. Which is quite a nuanced requirement and therefore the reason it only comes in at number ten. The stairs in Regan’s house are absolutely terrifying. To an outsider, they seem perfectly normal, but to someone already familiar ...
At the end of the film, Pazuzu is finally exorcised from within Regan. However, this doesn’t mean the demon has been defeated, and we see Karras become possessed by its spirit instead.

While Father Merrin is attempting to exorcise Regan for the first time, she is tied to the bed, covered in cuts and bruises and is shrieking at the top of her voice using all manner of different tones. The uncanny nature of a young girl creating these demonic sounds and being able to rattle a huge wooden bed with so much force simply fills the audi...
Before this, Regan’s stomach shows a scar in the form of the words “help me.” It’s this that seems to convince Karras that Regan is possessed, rather than her immense strength or extreme suffering, but that’s an entirely different point.

This is the very definition of a blink and you’ll miss it moment. The film is full of subliminal messages that are used to heighten the fear, but one of those is particularly strange and incredibly terrifying.

It’s pretty hard to not be absolutely terrified of Regan’s mutilated face every single time it appears on screen.

Regan’s rather unusual use of a crucifix is one of the most famous scenes in The Exorcist. It also ended up as, unsurprisingly, one of the most shocking. Not only is she screaming an incredible amount of obscenity for a young child, but she also uses the crucifix to stab herself in the crotch multiple times. Her voice is replaced by a devilish bark...

Okay, we’re finally back where we started. Remember The Stairs? Remember how if you’ve seen The Exorcist before you’ll be scared of the stairs forever and will never be able to look at them without cringing?

Interestingly, the final entry into our list isn’t from the first Exorcist film. Technically, this list could have drawn from the various entries into the franchise, but let’s be honest, they’re all pretty bad.

I feel it’s strengths comes with what it doesn’t show the audience, I found the best examples to be the booth scene and the ‘its a wonderful life scene’ that are both equally chilling. The score is also brilliant and adds to the overwhelming sense of dread that the film conveys.
