A character is shown to have the ability to dislocate their bones in very bizarre places. The most popular way is turning your head 360 degrees before facing the front again. Can fall into either Squick and/or Nightmare Fuel for some people, since it doesn't look natural. See here for a compilation of this trope. Often done as a Shout-Out to the Trope Namer, The Exorcist — for example, in cases of Demonic Possession. Subtrope of Abnormal Limb Rotation Range, Compare Body Horror, Losing Your Head, Demonic Head Shake. Not to be confused with Head Turned Backwards, when an outside force causes someone's head to be turned backwards. |

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess has the infamous Jump Scare from Blizzeta, the boss of Snowpeak Ruins. When Yeta leads Link to a Mirror of Twilight shard and gazes into it, she becomes corrupted and her head 180s to reveal a Nightmare Face on the back of her head. | |

Adventure Time: The Earl of Lemongrab does this, despite not really having a neck. Also, unusually for this trope, doing so seems to cause him visible strain. It somehow makes the whole thing even more disturbing. | |

The Simpsons: Maggie turns her head this way in the very first "Treehouse of Horror", in a nod to The Exorcist. Parodied in another Treehouse of Horror episode which has Homer Simpson moving his head Exorcist-style. Played for Laughs in "Krusty Gets Kancelled" when Gabbo spins his head in shock when he learns the only guest he could get on the day of Krusty's comeback special is Ray J. Johnson. In "Home Sweet Homediddly-Dum-Doodily", the one where Homer and Marge are declared unfit parents and the kids are given to the Flanders family to foster, Ned takes them to the river to baptize them. Bart and Lisa are sitting in the back seat and Maggie is in front. In "When You Dish Upon a Star", an angry Homer is driving to the beach and turns his head clockwise toward his fighting kids. He then turns his head further clockwise to face the road and we hear an audible snap. In the "Treehouse of Horror XXVIII" story "The Exor-Sis", Maggie is possessed by a demon called Pazuzu and she starts to turn her head 360 degrees. |

When the remaining Xiaolin apprentices try to restrain him so they can restore his chi, including trying to sneak up behind him during his rampages, Omi makes a complete 180-degree head turn, complete with Slasher Smile, Red Eyes, Take Warning, and the sound of scraping metal. | |

But then the real Dewey walks up right next to them, with no recollection of having called out to them. The kids all turn to see the imposter rotate its head behind it, revealing itself to be a Demonic Dummy. | |

Hilariously inverted in the Star vs. the Forces of Evil episode "Blood Moon Ball". Star's demon ex-boyfriend Tom holds his head still so he can continue to give Marco a Death Glare while his body rotates as he and his anger-management counselor "walk it out". | |

Baby Sinclair does this twice in Dinosaurs. The first time is in the episode "Germ Warfare", in which he's dying of a mysterious disease. The second is in the episode "Terrible Twos", a full-on Exorcist spoof in which he acts like the possessed Regan MacNeil because he turned two years old. | |

In the Good Eats episode "Give Peas a Chance", Alton is called in to help a child named Stevie, who has been sitting at the table for days, because his parents told him he couldn't leave the table until he finished his (mushy, overcooked) peas. Alton shows him that peas can be delicious if prepared properly. He makes split-pea soup, a burger made of pressed split-pea paste, and a pea salad with cheese cubes. Stevie expresses his approval by turning his head around 180 degrees. (His parents don't find this unusual.) | |

In Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, the T-X's head does a 360 spin after the T-800 hits her full-on with a fire extinguisher. Her response is a Quizzical Tilt. In fact, the T-X can also rotate her arms, torso, and legs a full 360 degrees thanks to artificial liquid steel lubrication in her actuators, something that even older Terminator units can't do. Being a highly advanced Terminator robot, her chassis is capable of Abnormal Limb Rotation Range. | |

Havik from Mortal Kombat has the ability to contort his entire body in odd and sickening ways. In fact, two of his specials allow him to regain health by doing so. Frost in Mortal Kombat 11 gains a lot of Abnormal Limb Rotation Range due to her becoming a Cyborg, and her head is among her body parts that can freely swivel around, and even detach to use as a weapon. Played for semi-creepy laughs in her Friendship where she merrily performs impressive figure skating spins... as her head remains completely in place, facing towards the camera. | |

Death Becomes Her, one of a pair of Alpha Bitches, Madeline, (now made immortal by a magic potion) falls down the stairs and cracks her neck. Not only does she survive (or un-survive) the fall, she gets back up with her head twisted completely backwards, facing her backside. Although her head is reoriented to its proper position, it leaves her with a bone protrusion on her neck. The doctor exclaims it's a dislocated neck. | |
