(I don't like to watch horror films, so I know I won't be making a visit to the locations.)

Not on the list but in my neck of the woods is the old school house from the movie The Birds. The Birds was filmed in Sonoma County along the coast at Bodega Bay and the small town of Bodega where the school house is.
I like the building behind the school better. It’s a white wooden Catholic Church that Ansel Adams took a picture of..

Ha - I wondered if they would include Corinth Vermont (East Corinth to be accurate), best known for Beetlejuice. And they did. They filmed parts of the new one there also, so I think it has had a resurgence of interest.

I've been to the Exorcist steps in DC in Georgetown a few times. Fun to take visitors there.

Just had some of our out-of-town visitors at the Exorcist steps a few weeks ago. They walked up but I opted to stay at the bottom and wait for them since it was very hot outside. 🥵

We've taken visitors to the Exorcist steps a times.
Not on the list and also not really where it was filmed, Burkittsville, MD was the setting for the fictional "Blair Witch" film. One of our best friend couples live there and they still get lookie-loos in town. It is a tiny, picturesque town at the base of the Appalachian Mountains. Up the road is Gathland State Park with a war correspondent memorial and trail access for the Appalachian Trail.
Spook Hill is also on the same road where it's said you can put your car in neutral and you will feel your car being pushed up hill by Civil War soldiers. Burkittsville has decided to embrace their lore and are hosting an anniversary showing of movie at the Ruritan Club to benefit the town historic cemetery. The mayor is a huge horror movie buff and we once swept the local Spook Hill fall race together where he was dressed as Michael Myers and had the walk downpat. In case anyone wants a fun drive through the country, history, Appalachian Trail day!

Around the time the movie came out I drove by that cemetery from Pet Semetary every day on my way to work.
