Over 50 years after its release, The Exorcist sits firmly atop the list of scariest movies ever made. It’s also one of few horror films to get Academy Award recognition—and the hugely influential starter of a franchise that’s still going today. If the season’s got you feeling spooky, or if you just need to add a jump scare to your bookshelf, Sideshow’s got you covered. Behold, this creepily detailed figure of Regan MacNeil, the 12-year-old played by Linda Blair who transforms into the ghastly possession victim through the film.
The 1/6 scale Regan figure comes in two versions. The collector edition, which costs $290, features the sinister eyes, teeth, and oozing skin we immediately associate with her head-rotating era; she also has synthetic hair, a fabric nightgown stained with ick, sculpted bandages, and feet that allow her to stand.
The accessories include three sets of hands and “a floating Pazuzu head on a clear stand and a black hexagonal support base,” according to Sideshow, so you can get that Exorcist subliminal messaging just right no matter which version of the movie you’re watching (William Peter Blatty’s director’s cut, released in 2000, has a notably enhanced Captain Howdy presence).
However, you probably don’t even need the devil tempting you to shell out for the deluxe edition. It’s a steep $395, but the upgraded cost feels worth it, since it adds so much more malevolence to your purchase.
You receive everything that comes with the collector edition, of course. You also get two different options for Regan’s face—both possessed, but one that’s clearly more hideously possessed—and two pairs of legs so you can pose her floating if you decide to. But the real draw of the deluxe edition is that it comes with a special figure base that is essentially her four-post bed, including pillows and blankets, as well as “an attachable clear support rod that magnetizes to the figure to reenact the famous levitating scene.”
You will have to supply your own priests, but really you’ve got all the terror required with this figure alone. The sounds of “Tubular Bells” immediately come to mind, don’t they? Consider placing this at the top of the steepest staircase in your home for added effect.
Both versions of the Regan MacNeil 1/6 Scale Figure by Sideshow, officially licensed by Warner Bros., are up for pre-order now and are expected to ship between May and August of 2027.
