a mannequin head is stabbed in one of the games more disturbing scenes, iirc the mannequin heads never speak but are implied to be alive in the same way other artwork in the game is, as several are shown to be moving autonomously.

Not explicitly, but Mary talks a lot about missing her father. The implication is that he died without her being aware, but from her POV it would seem like abandonment.

Not quite gaslighting, Garry does see the doll room differently than Ib and Mary, and doesn't understand what they see cute about the room.

There is a large snake in the New Game+ bonus dungeon. It is asleep the entire time, and the only interaction you have with it is to move it out of the way.
There are also a few paintings or drawings of snakes scattered throughout the game.

Most of the game takes place inside the "fabricated world", it is separate from but connected to the real world. It's possible for characters to cross through from one to the other through the painting(s?) that exist in the real world. In some endings, things that happen in the fabricated world affect the real world art gallery.

The main character may ask another character why he "talks like a woman" during some optional dialogue- it's just an awkward consequence of the fact that in the original Japanese, the character being asked uses a traditionally feminine mode of speech, which doesn't translate well into English.

some fans get creepy and act like Ib (9 years old) and Garry (a presumed adult) have a romantic bond because of giving roses, but it's a complete misinterpretation. they are only platonic. there is no romance in the game.

At most, there is an optional scene where Ib finds a romance novel containing sex. But because of her age, she does not know any of the words, and Garry takes the book away. This results in a lot of the words being censored.

if you fail certain choices in the game, Garry gets his rose taken by Mary and as you try to find her to get it back Garry slowly loses strength and has to stop and rest. he promises to catch up with you but then becomes unresponsive, and it's clear he will be dead soon because somewhere Mary is plucking the petals from his rose and killing him. you never see him again after that.

There are some depictions of writing in blood, and there is a storybook-esque segment near the middle which features someone dissecting someone else in order to get a key, and there is a brief period in that scene where the player can hear some screaming due to that event.
