One character is seen smoking an absolutely enormous pipe. I wouldn't dare to know what he's got in that thing.

At a minimum, a we see horses whipped and a living fly consumed by a Venus Fly Trap. I don't feel good about what probably happened to those rats either.

We see a fly caught in a Venus Fly Trap, and another insect (I think) devoured by a different plant. There are also two scenes where people kick or attack rats, we don't see the aftermath but it could plausibly have killed them.

Not explicitly, but keep in mind that the original story of Dracula uses vampires as a metaphor for rape, and Nosferatu is no different. The way Orlok preys on Ellen is visually portrayed as assault.

In a way. Hutter cuts his finger on a knife and blood is visible. Nosferatu then decides to lick Hutters finger.

Knock, the Renfield analogue, has "fallen under the shadow of Nosferatu," suffering from delusions etc, and is kept under guard in a sort of prison cell. Kind of unavoidable in the second half of the film, because there are frequent cuts to him.

Couldn't tell if it was really a hospital, but a sick man is brought to a room with a bed where a nun and a doctor take care of him.

Knock isn’t quite mentally ill, but he is in an insane asylum where he attempted to harm the guards.

i guess it depends on the version since the original had no sound, but the one i watched, the score really bothered me and sounds typically don’t bother me, but it’s not like chewing sounds or mouth noises

The insane asylum scenes are naturally a representation of a time when the mentally ill were not treated with dignity, but there isn't anything particularly egregious.

Nosferatu has been noted for his anti-Semitic undertones with his hooked nose, long claw-like fingernails, and large bald head.

Not really, but Orlok is attracted to Ellen's beauty. When he sees a picture of her he comments on her lovely neck. Later, he specifically preys on her due to his attraction to her.
