Just in the first minutes of the first episode but afterwards it’s ok luckily. I almost stopped watching bc of how violent that was but it was the only scene like that throughout the show so just skip the beating of Damon in the first episode and u should be ok

*spoiler* not alive because they talk about how to cover it up and definitely not buried in the ground. It was kind of neglect of rules of her job and client safety,also breaking laws. graphic description of conversation in a few scenes about this topic and how to deal with it for a coverup.This triggered me alot.

There's some light BDSM in some of season 2. It's consensual. It's not torture. But, if something like that might be distressing, be advised.

Yes, dead characters show up in multiple episodes as either ghosts or hallucinations, sometimes it's hard to tell exactly which one the writers were going for

Sounds of whipping/bodily impact in a BDSM context. So it's consensual but the audio may be upsetting to some people

He doesnt die, but in s2e6 a character has a vision of another character trying to convince him to kill himself. since she reasons through why it would be a good idea, this could be triggering even though he tells her he wont do it.

Technically, the first person to die during the course of the series is a black man. However, the show itself does not treat his death lightly at all. Pose takes place during the AIDS crisis of the late 80s and looks at how disenfranchised people were left to die due to social/political apathy.
