The characters take LSD in an early chapter, though none of them seem to experience any effects from it.

While it does not happen on screen and we don't know anything about the cat, it is mentioned that owls have been killing cats by dropping them.

There is a lot of body horror involving bugs, framed as a hallucination brought on by a demon. There is also a tapeworm infestation described in graphic detail.

It is speculated that a main character was assaulted. They never 100% confirm this, but that character recalls vague things that make the others believe it is true.

It is not 100% confirmed, but heavily implied that a main character was assaulted. There is also groping by supernatural forces.

In the chapter "Party All The Time", a character remarks 'You guys are so queer". The two main characters often say "Dearly but not queerly" when expressing affection. Two straight characters are accused of being "homos". None of this is directed at LGBTQ characters (unsure if there even are any).

80s typical language is used throughout, including one use of r-slur, two uses of psy*ho and multiple uses of crazy, insane, sch**o, sp**tic, sp*zz.

there are some instances of them being mentioned but the viewpoint of the narrative isn't on their side, it's clearly presented as bullying.
