Alpha is more emotionally abusive than physically to her daughter, Lydia. Though we do see scars on her arm throughout this season... She says her mom gave them to her throughout her years with her, but we don't see physical abuse beyond a slap E13/14.

There is a very explicit scene where a band of men happens upon some main characters and they are tracking them for killing a member of their own party. The leader of said band of men says "First we'll beat your friend to death... Then we'll have the girl. Then the boy. Then we're gonna shoot you and we'll be square." while another man says "Stop your squirming" while attempting to rape said child. It is very triggering even though no actual rape happens, it is threatened.

No specific episode, but any interaction from Negan with his wives. It's very clear that the majority (if not all) of Negan's 'wives' are not there by choice. They are threatened with severe punishment, such as mutilation or murder of their family. As such, they are forced to be his wives and so any sex between Negan and the wives is rape.
Negan states more than once that "Rape isn't allowed" in Sanctuary, but he is obviously raping his 'wives.'

In S1:E6 Lori gets sexually assaulted by Shane, however she fights him off before he goes much further than groping. Before he assaults her, he acts very angry and erratic when drunk and blocks off her exits. In S2:E11 a character heavily implies that his old group of survivors raped two girls in front of their father.

There are MANY brutal decapitations of humans and walkers. Several characters end up beheaded, and the severed head turns into a zombie until someone destroys the brain. There are scenes of undead severed heads stuck on spikes as a warning. An older, much-beloved character is murdered via decapitation.

Two major characters get their heads crushed in by Negans bat. It’s extremely graphic and one character is shown with one of his eyes protruding out of his skull. This scene starts at the end of the last episode of season six and stops around the 15 minute mark of the first episode of season seven.

s06e13: Towards the end of the episode, two protagonists pour gasoline all over a room, wait for a group of their enemies to enter, light the room on fire, and close and lock the door. /// s07e11: Again towards the end of the episode, the main antagonist throws someone into a furnace. This is preceded by a long rant by said antagonist, so there's time to mute and/or fast-forward. /// s08e16: A group of unnamed characters are killed via Molotov cocktails. It's not graphic and it's a very short scene, but it does catch you off-guard. Look out for Tara and a group of rehabilitated Saviors (led by Alden) breaking off from the others. /// s09e06: Towards the end of the episode, a protagonist pours gasoline all over a room filled with sleeping antagonists. Then, when they wake up, she lights a match, drops it, and leaves them locked in.

Many of the walkers demonstrate body horror. They are in various states of decay, some have parts of their bodies missing, some of them have rotted to the point they are almost fused with the earth. There is a decaying, water-logged zombie in a well. I'd also say the way Negan kills a certain character is so brutal and graphic it could count as body horror.

Many minor and major characters die, not every episode but many. Depending on your view of zombies (depicted in this series as dead, rotting etc.) then many zombie people die and the zombies themselves are dead people wandering around.

I would say yes because of Rick's hallucinations of seeing Lori. Even though she's not *actually* a ghost in the context of the TWD's reality, Rick views her as a ghost and I think that should count. If not, then how many show and movies should be excluded from seeing ghosts because only one character viewed them as real?

It's a tough call, but I'm gonna say "no" to this one. The protagonist is a cop, but they don't glorify his career or anything. The only other cop characters are antagonists, including a whole community run by horrifically misogynistic, abusive, violent cops. If anything, I might actually call this show pretty anti-cop despite the main character's former career.

Although the term is not explicitly stated in many cases, nearly all of the main cast show signs of PTSD. Most notably is Morgan, who is traumatized after the loss of his wife and son, Siddiq, who was forced to watch his friends be murdered, and Princess, who actually says she has PTSD, referring to the abuse and trauma from her childhood. The characters have flashbacks, panic attacks, and hallucinations. Other characters exhibiting symptoms (and are highly implied to have PTSD) include Rick, Daryl, Michonne, and Carol, among others.

There are small special effects, like a cockroach crawling onscreen made to look like it's on your TV screen, and blood/gore/mud splashing onscreen as well. The show doesn't have any major running themes that try to elicit paranoia for the viewer (aside from building suspense in the storyline as is common in this genre) but those sfx could be a trigger for some.

Not an abortion but and attempted abortion. When Lori discovers that she is pregnant in season 2, she asks Glenn to get items for her when he goes to scavenge again. When Maggie discovers what Glenn gets for her, she throws the pills at Lori referring to them as “abortion pills”. Lori takes these but then forces herself to puke them up. She does have the baby.

Lori’s water breaks during a walker attack on the prison. She is with Maggie and Carl (her son). Carol has been trained to do an emergency C-section if needed but had no way of knowing or getting to Lori so Maggie is forced to do it herself when Lori is unable to have the baby on her own. To prevent both Lori and the baby from dying, Maggie cuts her stomach open and gets the baby out. Lori dies and Carl is forced to shoot her in the head so that she does not turn.

The N-word is not in S1:E1 it is in S1:E2, used by Merle against a black man who then gets attacked by him. Rick does not 'shut it down' and only intervenes because they started fighting and later Rick uses the word himself. It is also in S2:E5 used by Merle offhandedly. Both times Merle uses the hard R.

This is a very blink and you miss it thing but on Merles bike you can see the double lightning bolt symbol which is a N@ZI symbol. This alludes to Merle being at the very least being apart of a antisemitic bike gang. His bike is seen multiple times up until the prison is lost in season 4. Daryl is also commonly seen working on it.
