History Heartwarming / Hereditary

* When Peter is hanging out with his friends under the bleachers and begins to freak out, they ask what’s wrong. He tells them that his throat is tightening and asks if one of them can "just hold [his] hand". The friend complies, the attack appearing to be psychosomatic. It’s a small moment, but it shows the boys care for their friend.

While ''Hereditary'' contains loads of Nightmare Fuel, there are a few small heartwarming moments, which are easy to miss on the first viewing.

* While very minor, Annie stating that she still loved her mother despite their issues at the support group. It's a very real situation that many can relate to.
* Annie tucking Charlie into bed and telling her that if she wanted to cry, it would be ok.

** Peter doesn't protest or complain when Annie brings up taking Charlie with him to the party. He seems completely fine with the idea, and just asks if she ''wants'' to go.

** Peter telling Charlie that they can hang out and draw together after he smokes is pretty heartwarming. Considering Peter is a bit socially awkward it's likely he was serious about it.
** After realizing Charlie is having a reaction, Peter literally ''carries her in his arms'' out to the car.
** Peter's openness to the seance might imply that he wants to talk to his sister again. Of course, he ''freaks out'' when it actually happens, and begins sobbing afterwards.

* While it doubles as tearjerker, Annie only being able to sleep in Charlie's treehouse.
