However characters are often shown emaciated from hunger, which may be a trigger.

Very debatable when it comes to codependence.

MILD SPOILERS
Thorfinn's relationship with Askeladd is very complicated. This is particularly evident at the end of S1.

One character's mother was kidnapped by his father and locked away in his room and sexually abused, it's not shown but only mentioned when a character is talking about his mother and why he hates his father's people. Also the way slaves are treated is obviously very abusively and scenes of slaves being abused could be very triggering for abuse survivors.

Nothing super graphic is shown, but there's descriptions of women being kidnapped and sexually abused. Also scenes of women being dragged off and it's just assumed what is about to happen.

Technically no ghosts, however a character imagines conversations between him and a ghostlike depiction of a decapitated head. It's made clear this is a visual product of the character's development. This happens multiple times over the latter half of S2.

Women are often if not always separated to be sold as slaves for obvious reasons.
So yes. Commodification and constant objectification of human beings.
There are also man/women slaves for other kinds of horrific purposes.
