There are several details within this that hint at certain aspects of the movie and on repeat viewing it fills in more and more of the gaps about the character. Not only was Leigh the grandmother and mother to the family that the film focuses on, we also learn throughout the movie that she was the queen of the cult of Paimon. Paimon is one of eight kings of hell and when researching the figures I learned that his powers include the abilities to creative visions, aquire servants, make spirits appear, reanimate the dead and grant flight which are all things that we see happen in the film. Before the events of the movie we discover that Leigh had attempted to offer up her son Charles as a vessel for his spirit. We learn his name through this opening obituary and it becomes important later as it plays into what is really going on with one of the central characters. Charles committed suicide, accusing Leigh of trying to put people in him and though this was diagnosed as schizophrenia, we know from the events in the movie that this wasn't the case. Because of his death Leigh was unable to give Paimon a vessel. However, that didn't stop her from trying and she waited until her daughter Annie had a son named Peter. At the time they weren't on speaking terms and thus she was unable to use him in a ritual to summon the spirit of the demon. Years later, Annie and Leigh repaired their relationship and Annie had a daughter named Charlie. Charlie was of course named after Charles and from what we know, the cult then set their eyes on her. There's lip service paid to Leigh telling Annie that she wanted a boy and this is exemplified in one of the customised mats that Leigh made for the child which has her name as Charles instead of Charlie. The cult successfully managed to put the spirit of Paimon into the girl, however, Paimon desired a male body and thus he did not bestow upon them the riches that they seeked. The film centres around the cult transferring the spirit of Paimon from Charlie into Peter all whilst carrying out the rituals that enable to possession to occur. Now from the off there's a tonne of foreshadowing, returning characters and just things in general that don't pay off until the end. Annie makes minatures and we initially start off with slow pan across one which then becomes the real world. There are a tonne of theories that exist around the symbolism of this but personally I believe this almost dollhouse like aesthetic shows that the characters don't really have any agency or control over the events that play out.

The last 15 minutes of this movie give you a visceral feeling of existential dread. Truly magnificent. That last scene where Peter is walking around the house in the dark and there’s zero music, basically no other noise and just his pure terror was so unnerving. I can’t remember the last time I felt that uncomfortable in a horror movie. Wild. So well done.
i love how the closer you pay attention to this movie, the more terrifying it gets. ari aster is brilliant
Annie never told Joanne she had a boy called Peter.
I think the blue light of Paimon can also be implied as a reflective light coming from the magnification lens Annie uses when creating her miniatures
I still believe Toni Collette deserved an Oscar for her role in this movie. She was absolutely phenomenal.
ill never get over the fact that the parents were so worried about the girl over her nut allergy but sent her with her brother and neither had an Epipen
That shadow wasn't Peters Soul leaving his body while he's laying in the dirt it was a shadow of his headless mother's corpse floating out of the window
The Oscars have a huge bias against horror and science fiction, but Toni Colette´s performance was nothing short of Oscar worthy.
The #1 thing to remember is that Charlie is never ACTUALLY Charlie, Charlie is Paimon. And Peter didn't necessarily die from the fall at the end. You wouldn't die from a fall that high landing in dirt unless you landed directly on your head.
It wasn't the shadow of his soul leaving his body, it was the shadow of Annie's decapitated body floating out the window and over to the treehouse, which we see later. Peter wasn't dead, just sufficiently traumatized and hurt to become vulnerable enough for possession. Annie became vulnerable enough after the trauma of seeing Steve die. And we know Charles escaped possession by committing suicide so Peter couldn't be completely dead.
10:56 that's definitely the shadow of Annie's headless body leaving the attic and levitating towards the tree house. The next shot in the actual movie shows that. That being said, incredible movie!
This movie is so fucking good. Like, seriously, I think it is on the same level as horror classics like The Exorcist, Rosemary's Baby and The Shining. Ari Aster made a huge impact on me as a fan of movies and I'm eager to see his next work
This is the scariest movie I've ever seen. PERFECTLY TRAUMATIZING
Hereditary is a truly terrifying, psychological, dark, and UNIQUE horror film. That’s what I love about it…the storyline is very unusual and refreshing, and it explores the real life horrors of cults and the dark side of secrecy
The mum stuck in the ceiling with her back and staring at his son plus her banging her head on the attic. These scenes will haunt me.
My mom wrote a paper about Hereditary for English or something like that. As a result, she ended up memorizing the whole dinner scene. Sometimes, she just walks up to me and recites it word-for-word.
I just remembered that at the Grandma's funeral Annie mentions how more people that showed up than she expected, or something like that. So I'm sure there are plenty of cult members there, just like the creepy smile guy.
Annie banging her head on the attic door echoes the rhythm of the knife chopping walnuts at the party.
After Peter jumps out of the window you can hear the mums head hitting the floor, also I always thought that the shadow that you see afterwards was the mum floating out of the window not his soul
i actually noticed two hidden details after watching this movie yesterday with my friend! when annie is working on a miniature (sorry, i dont remember which) you can see in the window behind her that there are two hands pressed on the glass. another one is when the girl peter has a crush on leads him to the room to smoke weed, the two boys that are already in there are watching a video of someone's head being chopped off via guillotine. that last one is the one that really made me go "oh shit, theyre ALL in on it huh" since it was my second watching haha
