No. However there is tension between a couple with a failed marriage.
Depending on the player's choices, there's a flashback scene where the couple is arguing over the phone but there's no domestic violence present.

Arguably. Characters who have seen the creatures have their fears rejected by other characters even if the other characters have found evidence of them. The love triangle subplot involves characters misleading or lying to others.

It's possible for one of the main characters to have his hands tied behind his back for a small portion of the game, though the restraint isn't focused on. A character may also be handcuffed to a table briefly.

Multiple characters can fall to their death if the player fails the QTEs.
Some characters can be taken by the vampire creatures who fly into the sky and drop them down from a high distance.
One character can fall down a hole and break his neck.
One character can fall into the abyss and get impaled by a stalacmite.

i don’t feel like there’s a proper answer for this. there is a main character who is at first portrayed as ‘intolerant’ and racist but becomes very close to an iraqi soldier, which can be seen as propaganda. however in the ending there are government workers who are portrayed as morally wrong and uncaring
