Dorothy's House infamously lands on the Wicked Witch of the East, we see her legs sticking out from under it afterward, but nothing graphic. We don't actually see the house land on her.

Dorothy dresses fairly modestly and no one is shown to be attracted to her throughout. Most characters either wish to destroy her, or protect her from the witch--if anything, the ones in the latter camp treat her more like a little sister than anything.

The four protagonists shake a lot, and Dorothy cries a lot. No full blown panic attacks but definitely feelings of hopelessness and fear.

There's a common urban legend that an actor killed himself in the background of the scene. The "hanging body" in question is very clearly a large bird moving its wings. There are cranes all over the set for some reason and when one raises its head, its neck kind of resembles a rope, which is how the rumor started. No actual deaths happened.
