You do not see a dog die onscreen; however, the implication is that the man intended to kill the dog before the scene changes.

About 30 minutes into the first episode a man is threatening to drown his wife/fiance/girlfriends puppy. The dog is heard yelping as the man carries it to a tub of water. Ultimately the dog survives. The people are distracted and the dog does not die. At least not on screen. That doesn’t make the sounds less upsetting so be warned.

There is a dead pig being cut open at about 16:30. Ed says he walked in on someone gutting a pig just before you see it so you have a bit of warning to fast forward through it. It’s a very short period of time, 10 seconds at most

The beginning of this episode it goes to Ted Bundy kidnapping two women, and killing them and then going back to perform sexual acts on them after they were dead it pans away and ends the scene as he's taking off his pants doesn't show anything but it might be triggering. This happens at it right about 4 minutes at the very beginning of the episode

I mean, the crime as extremely gorey. It did not feel to me like the film was excessive relative to the crimes, if that makes sense. Still, it sometimes cuts to severed body parts unexpectedly

When Hitchcock takes the actor that plays Ed Gein in the movie psycho to the set, he shows him a fridge full of preserved vulva and you see them.

I didn't see any slurs, but there is a scene where Alfred Hitchcock is talking to the actor that will play Ed,saying he was chosen because he has a 'sickness', similar to what Ed had. The actor is gay. There is also a therapist scene with the actor talking about how to stop him from being gay using language like 'get better' and it cuts to him receiving electric shock therapy.

Presents baseless theories that Gein (who murdered women and girls) was a transgender woman. Way too much pacing is detected to panties, which Gein didn’t care about.
