Not really? Worth mentioning that Abbie's mentor was a "lovable bastard" type, and he's portrayed favorably in flashbacks because that's how Abbie sees him. Some of his "tough love" approaches may make others feel differently.

No but there’s a scene where the horseman’s horse suddenly appears in front of a car. The driver swerves to avoid hitting the horse. Also, the horse belongs to the Horseman of Death so it’s not really clear if it can die or not

There are a few dead bats suspended in vines/cobwebs. I’ve seen this episode multiple times and somehow never noticed them before. They’re only shown onscreen for a moment and aren’t mentioned/acknowledged so it’s very easy to miss them

(Early spoiler) Abbie loses a mentor figure and the theme of grief is reoccurring.
S1E1: Abbie goes through the belongings of a character who has died, and we see a framed photo of him with two youngish children.
S1E2: The "monster of the week" stalks a specific family and steals the urn containing the father's ashes.

Technically yes. A man willingly touches a cursed rosary that severely burns his hand (severe meaning 3rd degree burns) because he can read information from the beads. So while he is technically harming himself, it’s a side effect of a necessary action rather than an intentional act

S1E3 has a possessed man threaten to shoot his wife in a hostage situation and then he shoots himself.
