technically yes but a large part of the show is seeing the deaths of characters so it isn’t inherently just a woman being brutalized

Season 1, Episode 7. Madison (The Mermaid) is abused by her husband (he hits her, throws a drink at her and then blames her for his violent outburst against her.) It's the intro if you wish to skip this.

Sort of? In S2 E3, there's a Jorogumo which is a yōkai from Japanese folklore meaning "woman-spider." She does grow and retract spider legs a couple of times in the episode.

While there is some blood and gore throughout most of the explicit violence happens off screen. The worst of the on screen violence is in S2E7 where a character has her heart ripped out of her chest. The actual action is off screen but we do get a closeup of the heart in the attacker’s hand

This one is more in an abstract way but characters at several points volunteer for death challenges, all agree to vote for themselves for the death challenge effectively sacrificing themselves and one instance of a character purposely losing a death challenge

S1 E3 has a seance in which a character is a vessel of a spirit's soul. S3 E9 could arguably be one as well; the Collar of Control possesses and controls those who wear it.

No, but they have a pattern of killing them off in the fourth episodes for some reason. One was due to the person having an injured leg, however.

Season 3 Episode 9 is full of this.
Also there's a vampire orgy in S2 E2 and one of the challenges has the guests playing perverse games with mannequins.
And Season Four Episode 8 arguably. Two of the characters end up making out on a table.
