Hereditary fan thinks they figured out the film's greatest 'mystery,' which has been puzzling viewers for years

Hereditary.

A horror fan has solved what they believe to be Hereditary's biggest mystery – and it's an accidental mix-up involving Aleister Crowley.

In Hereditary, Annie (Toni Collette) opens a spellbook to a chapter titled "Summoning King Paimon," which contains a drawing that depicts Paimon as wearing black robes, holding a staff, having a big triangle hat, and riding a camel. The Redditor points out that – camel aside – this is not the way that Paimon, described as the King of Hell in early grimoires, has been depicted throughout history.
