In season 7 episode 10, it shows Bobby’s early family life. His father abused him and his mother emotionally and physically.

There are themes of domestic violence throughout the show. ( A kid literally whipping herself through emotional manipulation, multiple spouses killing eachother (though one is usually a monster) etc.

Perhaps not for "spectacle", but women are often hit, beaten, abducted and killed, sometimes in unnervingly realistic ways that could definitely be triggering for some.

In season 7, there’s extremely strong alluding to Sam being raped/sexually assaulted by Lucifer when he was in the cage. He’s also plagued with ptsd and hallucinations of Lucifer which constantly make him feel unsafe, and cause him to be unable to eat and sleep

There is so many examples of non-consensual sex which is often not acknowledged as sa. Though most examples of on screen rape it is because of uninformed consent, sex while on mind altering substances, or sex with a being thats possessing someone else so the people we see involved are happy and enthusiastic during, it's still not consensual.

throughout all seasons of the show there are scenes of characters cutting their palms or firearms for rituals, spells, ad sigils. The cuts are not often shown explicitly on camera and I the later season are healed quickly by Castiel.

There are a few scenes of Castiel with larger cuts. One scene shows a sigil cut into his chest, and another shows a message carved into his chest by another character.

Almost every character ends up with a cut at some point, most often from violence from a monster or another character.

I'm not sure why there are No's on this. Sam intentionally wounds his own hand through an entire season to keep an evil part of himself at bay. His hand is frequently bandaged and bloody.

As seasons progress, characters get more and more mutilated. They are often put back together by an Angel. However, there is an entire arc of Frankenstein people who decapitate and dislocate people's parts.

s2 ep9: dude at the beginning has a seizure
s4 ep20: jimmy (castiel's vessel) has a seizure at 6 minutes
s7 ep17: sam is forced to get ECT (electroshock therapy) by a demon at full force and hes convulsing/seizing while it happens at 36 minutes
s7 ep23: polly (the blonde girl) has a seizure after dick roman injects her with something in a syringe and shes seen profusely foaming at the mouth at 23 minutes
s10 ep16: the witch who led the grand coven is seen convulsing for a few seconds at 32 minutes but stops
s11 ep3: cas has a seizure at 9 minutes then again at 36 minutes, honestly probably most realistic ones ive seen so far so if this is your trigger id watch out but it doesnt last too long
s11 ep17: pretty similar to the last one w cas very realistic, dean od'ed in a hospital and has a seizure
around 24-25 minutes, theres more in the other comments and in the "does someone v*?" section but i wont spoil much.
s14 ep7: at 3 minutes jack is sick and has a seizure
s14 ep14: dean kinda seizes for a few seconds at 29 minutes after hitting his head

Not sure why so many “No”, as there are very clearly multiple times this happens of characters, all men, getting kicked in the groin. Especially in season 2, 4, worst of all season 5, and season 10. The Japanese gameshow that the other person mentioned had a giant metal rod smash into Sam’s groin for “humor” in season 5, although it can be very distressing.

Typically sticks to suggestive sprays of blood, shots of bodies that don't peer into injuries, blood on clothing. Most injuries are streaks of red on bodies with a few exceptions for pitted looking burns or magical wounds that don't look like normal gore. Some episodes show severed heads. Individual body parts such as bones or eyeballs. Sometimes graphic sound effects meant to gross the viewer out. Many characters die in horrible ways but the wound itself is off-screen, with sprays of blood and gross sound effects.

Self-mutilation is very frequent as it is a common method to summon some supernatural entities in the series.

The protagonist wakes up in an alternate reality and can't decide if it's real. Sensations from reality like dead bodies randomly appear and cause jumpscares. The characters in the other reality admit they aren't real. The protagonist kills himself hoping his death won't be real and it will bring him back to reality. The audience doesn't know which is reality during the episode or whether suicide will just kill the protagonist.

No, but one victim's reflection doesn't move as a consequence of the spirit, it might be triggering?

•In S5 Famine, one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, causes insatiable hunger similar to binge eating. We see this affect a main character [Castiel].

•It is implied that Dean (main character) may have a binge eating disorder from childhood neglect (lack of food while Dad abandoned them on hunting trips). Most non-violent scenes with Dean feature him consuming food of some kind. He has an unhealthy relationships and attachments to food, sometimes putting it above other priorities.

Dean overdoses and dies momentarily (can’t remember the season). Crowley stabs himself with an angel blade to save the Winchesters (last episode of season 12). Boy shoots himself (season 1). Angel suicide bombers exist in season 9. (all I can think of off the top of my head, may be more x)

In s6 e23, Crowley makes a running gag out of misgendering Raphael for inhabiting a female vessel.

In s8 e23, Castiel briefly makes an insensitive comment about a (presumably)trans woman’s biological sex.

Hitler is briefly risen from the dead, but is quickly killed. None of his ideals are appreciated or adopted by any protagonist characters. There is a Jewish character, Aaron if I remember correctly, but he is not portrayed in an antisemitic way. Crowley, when he was the king of hell, has a portrait of himself in Nazi uniform with an insignia of a pitchfork in place of the swastika. He does not hold antisemitic beliefs or values. Jewish folklore is mentioned several times throughout the show, but never in a derogatory way.

In "Free To Be You And Me" Dean finds out Castiel is a virgin and attempts to get him to have sex despite his visual discomfort in the situation. This scene is played for laughs. There are other cases where Castiel's lack of understanding about sex is laughed at (such as season 6 episode 3, the "pizza man" bit) but it is never directly stated in the show that Castiel is on the asexual spectrum.

Dean gets a memory curse cast on him. At one point he looks in the mirror and keeps saying who he is over and over again until he Can no longer remeber his own name. It is a brutal scene imo (season 12, episode 11)

While not an illness, a main character makes a deal with a demon in season 3 and only has a year to live until he is killed and taken to hell. Multiple episodes in this series touch upon the fear and grief this character and his loved ones experience while faced with this information, which may be upsetting to watch

The male protagonists actively try to convince one character to have an abortion multiple times. There is focus on the entire season around preventing the birth and catching the mother, who doesn't want to abort. The mother tries to kill herself in desperation but does not succeed. She doesn't want to abort but is being told if she doesn't she'll endanger the world. She dies from the birth.

!SPOILERS!

God is defeated by Jack, who quickly fills the position. Cas is in The Empty (SuperMegaTurbo Hell), and stays there until being briefly mentioned by Bobby in the last scene. Dean dies while fighting "clown-vampires", getting impaled by a large screw sticking out from the wall (OSHA Violation). Sam lives on, without his brother and starts a family, but eventually dies of old age. They are reunited in heaven. Cas and Jack are absent for the finale. Not necessarily sad (more bittersweet), but extremely disappointing for long-time fans.
