Part of the plot involves a science-fictional menace affecting the fabric of reality, resulting in events like a person being able to walk through a closed door, which results in another character questioning her sense of reality.

Complicated. someone is possessed and attacks the body's spouse. So violence by intimate partner's BODY, but not by the partner.

There's a pretty uncomfortable and distressing hospital scene where the main character is on an operating table after nearly dying in the crossfire of a fight- and they struggle to warn the surgeon that they aren't human, to no avail. Tread with caution.
