The fox scene in episode 2 is hard to watch. While clearly fake, the fox is bound on a plate and it screams a lot. In episode 3 Louis bites and drains two squealing rats between 13:00-13:20. In episode 5 Louis eats a squealing rat.

Louis eats a cat in episode 3. He grabs it suddenly and bites into it while it yowls. You don't see much because it's a dark scene but the sound is upsetting. The scene happens from roughly 5:10-5:25.

Although it is not fully specified whether Louis fully forgives Lestat after abuse in episode 5 Claudia and Louis come up with a list of rules that Lestat has to follow and he agrees. Louis then proceeds to become romantically involved with Lestat again.

Episode 7, a man's lower jaw is ripped entirely off. Another man's eyeball is ripped out and dropped onto the floor, there's a brief shot of his face after. And this counts as body horror, a man's skull is punched entirely through

Arguably, every time Lestat kills he tortures his victims in some way. In episode 3 he breaks a man's spine so that he's still alive but aware and in pain. Meanwhile, he and Louis are arguing about killing him.

There are a few tense minutes in Episode 2 where it seems like Louis might have eaten a baby— he holds the baby and begins baring his fangs involuntarily, and when it cuts back to the present day he repeatedly dodges the question of whether he ate him. He did not, however, and left the house before he could do any harm. In episode 4, Claudia is technically killed when she is turned into a vampire, but she is undead.

In episode 1, Louis sticks his arm in front of the sun, causing it to burn. He does not do this out of suicidal intent. In episode 2, Lestat cuts his finger to mark a page with blood. Claudia self-harms by sticking her arm in a beam of sunlight at the end of episode 4.

Louis’ sister is pregnant in episode 2, and then there is a six month timeskip to Louis visiting her and meeting her third baby. He struggles with resisting the impulse to eat the baby (it looks like he’s going to for a second), but leaves before he can do any harm.

The first episode has a prolonged sex scene between Louis, Lestat, and Lily. Nudity is only seen from the waist up or from behind. Episode 3 has waist-up nudity around 15:10-15:15 and a sex scene around 24:20, though no actual sex is seen.

There’s no actual incest but there are references to the idea of it occasionally to reenforce themes of unsettled family dynamics. In episode 6 I believe, Claudia, an adult vampire in the body of a teenager, says to her adopted vampire dads that they’re the only people who will ever see her as an adult and therefore her only potential romantic partners. She didn’t mean this statement as a proposition but rather an expression of the morbidity of her circumstance, but this can be understandably uncomfortable and disturbing to ppl, especially those with incest triggers

There is a lot of drinking blood in this show, since it's about vampires. If you can't handle that, this is not the show for you. There is also some gore at the end of ep 1 where Lestat punches through the head of a priest. It's only visible for a couple of seconds.
