Not deliberately gaslighted by another person but the main character struggling to tell fact from reality and feeling like she's losing her sanity is a core plot element.

A raven is sacrificed at a table where people are performing some sort of ritual at the start of the movie, and I immediately turned it off.

A raven is killed onscreen at the very beginning, and a doll made from a stuffed rabbit is found in a cupboard.

Maybe? One of the main characters hurries to his room and is having odd symptoms that look like be could be having a seizure... but it possibly could have been a panic attack? I'm honestly not sure.

A child doesn't die in the film, but two children die before the film begins and investigating those deaths is the core plot.

Towards the end of the film, the main character remembers the death of a parent and a fair amount of it is shown on screen.

This comment should be removed for giving away a key part of the film, when saying "Yes" could have sufficed.

especially during a scene after the opening ritual, there is a scene in the main characters home where they use a handheld camera.

When the main character opens up a secret cupboard, she finds a distinctly racist doll meant to be a caricature of a black person. While it is not hate speech, it is racist imagery that I feel should have a warning.

Some semi-nudity and a relatively tasteful non-graphic sex scene, with only before and after shown.

I am confused by the phrasing of this question but it does have a happy ending!
