Occasionally the ghosts (mainly Thomas and Mary) will try to peek at Mike and Alison while they are in the bathroom, could be seen as stalker-ish.

I'd say no, but Alison being convinced the ghosts aren't real throughout episode 2 could potentially feel that way.

No but a ghost character has an affair with the body of a decapitated ghost’s body (but not his head as they are separately ‘sentient’) so 1. The head is upset to find that his body has been dating her 2. With no head the body probably couldn’t consent— verbally and all— but this would be overthinking it haha but worth noting

Going to say no. There are ghosts with somewhat gruesome appearances (a headless man, a child who died of the plague, a man who was shot in the neck by an arrow, several folks who perhaps died of the pox) but mostly they look campy and are not scary or excessive.

Kind of debatable as to whether ghosts count as humans. SPOILER: Mary (a ghost) “moves on”. It’s not like a general death but the episode focuses a lot on grief.

There are frequent “jump scares”- however, all of which are for comedic affect and aren’t actually scary. For example, Robin often makes Alison jump by shouting “boo.”

Yes; S01E05 Mike gags while cooking the pheasant, some audio, no visual.

S02E02 [27:40] Alison is gagging throughout the episode (hangover) and v*mits in the last few seconds of it, full audio and visual.

S02E06 [5:00] Kitty says "yes, yes, a thousand times yes!" then v*mits, full audio and visual (looks like dust, though, since she's a ghost).

ALL EPISODES the ghosts all gag anytime someone passes through them, which happens variably throughout.

A few times someone jokes about the Captain being obviously gay before he's out (like Robin saying that he's definitely not the one having an affair with Fanny). But it's not like this has any consequences for anyone.

Could be argued as a suicide attempt.
S1E4, Thomas says he is going to "drown himself in the lake".
As he is a ghost it's impossible, and later he is shown just treading water in the lake, no physical damage having been done.

The mild homophobia comes from Fanny in S2E6. It is resolved and she realises her ideology was wrong. Worth avoiding the entire episode if it intensely triggers you, but I was fine.

Nothing graphic. Frequent but vague sex jokes, one ghost talks about having died during a sex scandal, a movie is filmed and the scene leading up to a sex scene is shown, but nothing actually happens on screen.

In s1e3 mike takes off his clothes and runs through the house. In s4e3 he is having a bath with Alison, but they are both covered in bubbles. Mike then runs through the house briefly. Both times Mike was naked, the actor was wearing pants and nothing other than legs/head/midriff were visible.

A prehistoric caveman has a throwaway line about having slept with his sister, but he immediately insists that he was joking.

There are some theories that the Captain may have died due to chronic illness, but as of season 4 nothing has been revealed yet.

no nuclear explosion, but in season 2 episode 3, there is a relatively small explosion due to some kind of experimental explosive device sometime in the second half of the episode

Two brief instances of blood; S02E02 in a flashback of the plague victims, one man coughs and blood appears in his hand. S02E04, flashback of Thomas's death, we see him shot and he pulls his hand away to reveal blood. Minor, both times.

A ghost does walk into a lake, but because he's already dead he just stands there.
