No, but there is a very obviously fake cat that is strung up (among other animals of similar quality, along with various skeletons) in the background of a scene. Just wanted to mention it just in case.

There are two different senes involving someone being attacked while in a very small space and cannot get out. The space itself is not the threat, so not true claustrophobia, but is likely to make the attack seem more intense if you're affected by claustrophobia yourself.

Body Dysmorphia/Body Dysmorphic Disorder is a mental health condition where you spend a lot of time worrying about your appearance. NOT body horror.
