Jack is an alcoholic and does appear to get drunk later in the film. However, while we do see him drinking, it is unclear whether this is just an illusion.

No finger or toe mutilation, however Wendy does defend herself against jack by cutting the back of his hand with a knife.

Kind of? Jack makes out with a woman who is not Wendy but it is somewhat of a hallucination.

*SPOILERS*
The main kid, Danny, survives. Technically, no child deaths happen during the events of the movie.
I still marked yes just because we learn about the murders of two young girls, and although this happened before the events of the movie it's mentioned a lot and we see visions of the gorey aftermath.

There are ghosts throughout the movie. There is a ballroom filled with ghosts, two little girls that haunt the hallways and a goul/ghost in a haunted room.

Some, but not nearly as bad as the jump-scare-heavy modern horror movies. It's more about atmosphere and suspense.

Will depend on if you consider addiction/alcoholism a mental illness, but I marked “yes” to be safe.

Yeah when Jack drinks bourbon, the glass + ice make sounds. Could be seen as unpleasant.

The whole movie has a claustrophobic feel, as the family are totally isolated at the hotel.

Very sexual, but often shown in a creepy, disturbing way.

One could say that Jack was sexually assaulted by the ghost in #237… he consented to the pretty lady illusion, not so much the rotting corpse.

The n word is used a few times by white characters to refer negatively to a black character.

Sort of. The first dead bodies shown are white, but their deaths occurred before the start of the film. The first character to actually be killed onscreen is a black man.

*SPOILERS*
Jack tries to kill his wife and son. he fails and dies of hypothermia. It's a good ending, depending on how you look at it.

We are shown the aftermath of a car crash caused by icy roads, but not really the car crash in action. However, it looks pretty violent

An elevator is filled with blood. That's how much blood to expect.
