Abuse and neglect at a Victorian - early 20th century orphanage is discussed. Personally I found the discussion to be sensitive and non sensationalist.
Several episodes feature children being routinely frightened by paranormal phenomena.

Deaths of hamsters, whose perspective is not dwelt on but which were presumably not very happy about being killed.

No but most episodes feature people being frightened in their homes by something they perceive as living with them, so could be triggering.

Overall no. Most episodes end with the people at the centre of the haunting moving on with their lives but being confused/uneasy about what happened.

This sometimes happens when spooky scenery is shown between discussion. It would be easily possible to follow the show without looking at the screen at all if this is an issue.

No violence from a person with a diagnosed mental illness but there are discussions of telekinesis, the theory that a person could move an object (sometimes violently) with their mind at times of extreme stress.
