This article explores the significance of Charlie's tongue-clicking in Ari Aster's psychological horror film, Hereditary. It delves into the symbolism behind the tic, revealing its connection to the demon Paimon who inhabits Charlie's body.
Hereditary is full of small details that elevate the viewing experience once you catch them and make them part of the story, among them Charlie ’s constant tongue-clicking noises. After rising to fame with short films, most notably The Strange Thing About the Johnsons, Ari Aster made his feature-length directorial debut in 2018 with Hereditary.
Charlie’s tongue-clicking is a tic as it’s not something she can control, and it tends to come out in situations where she feels uncomfortable or anxious. This is why she can be heard clicking her tongue at the funeral, when seeing her grandmother in the woods and while in the car with Peter on their way to the party. However, the tongue-clicking being a tic is just on the surface, as there’s something deeper and more sinister behind it.
As mentioned above, Annie struggles with her grief as she doesn’t have a good relationship, and Charlie is the only one visibly upset about her grandmother’s death, which is also due to Paimon’s presence in her. Speaking to Variety in 2018, Aster confirmed that Charlie is the first successful host for Paimon, and from the moment she was born, Charlie was “displaced” and it was just Paimon.
