Nose Wiggles

Now, this is a shocker. Yes, the nose wiggles were iconic. However, Erin Murphy (one of the actresses who played Tabitha) said the “wiggle was actually a camera trick.” Crazy right? Although Samantha’s nose does a slight wiggle, it’s actually the upper lip she’s moving when you look closer. They based the iconic wiggle off of Montgomery’s nervous twitch. In order to enhance it, they sped up the film and used a xylophone sound. Also it’s not true that Elizabeth Montgomery got the role for her nose wiggling abilities. In fact, she already had the part before the nose twitch was invented.
