Actress Sidse Babett Knudsen reported that the horses, used during the first season, were neglected on set. She was quoted as telling the producers and wranglers, “These horses have been out in the sun for 10 hours, they are going to fucking die…They are not even working today – get them in the shade!”

There are host storylines (past ones) that involve ghosts. We don't see the storylines but we hear host dialogue from it and hear about the storylines briefly and vaguely.
A lot of yes votes but I'm not sure what they're referring to. I'm sensitive to jumpscares and had no issue. It's generally not a "scary" show although it is violent and has some "thriller" suspensful aspects
Hosts can be reprogrammed, you can argue that the changes made to the Host or the person making the changes count as mind control, a form of possession.
Season 1 and 2 are clear of this trigger, S3E1 has one bad guy retching, slightly visible in the rear camera of a car at night. It mostly sounds like he's choking on blood; I didn't see anything visually traumatic during this.
Traditional shock therapy does not take place in the series, but something that might seem to have similar effects to shock therapy or seizures happens in Season 3 Episode 8.
s1e2 one of the hosts, Maeve, wakes up during surgery and tries to escape by running nude and bleeding through the facility, where she finds the room where hosts murdered by guests are "processed". -----s1e4 maeve has flashbacks to waking up in the facility after being shot and being operated on.---s1e5 a schene of her being repaired on the operating table.
Given Westworld is basically an MMORPG, reality is incredibly unstable & prone to dramatic, unexplained change. Especially for the ‘NPCs’ (the HOSTS, not the guests)
Someone commits suicide in Season 1: Episodes 9 and 10. Two people commit suicide in Season 2 Episode 9. One additional person considers suicide. It largely deals with the way that loved ones are affected by the suicides. Watch the show with caution because there might be more, especially in Season 2.
Show is about a virtual place that glorifies the Wild West for their customers. And so it includes the typical racist and violent stereotypes of First Nations folk, sometimes using slurs to describe them.
Extensively. I would not recommend this show if you don't like, for example, tarantino films. But it's not exploitative depictions like, for example, the saw series.
In addition to lots of shooting and stabbing and sexual violence, there are dead bodies being chopped apart, people reaching inside various wounds, a hand being chopped off, torture, bloodletting, scalping, a heart being cut out, heads being cut open, and a lot more.
