Sort of - a minor subplot has an antagonistic character, Quasimodo, trying to capture Johnny and cook him. Johnny ultimately survives

Not necessarily outright abuse, but some audiences have noted that Dracula's behavior towards Mavis is rather controlling and can be read as abusive, though Dracula is vilified for this and improves on his behavior late into the movie. Examples include not allowing her to leave the hotel, deceiving her into thinking all humans are violent to prevent her from leaving (he is later called out for this), openly disapproving of her relationship with Johnny and scaring him into rejecting her (against Johnny's own wishes), generally refusing to let her be independent, and so on.

Several sheep are killed and eaten in the climax. It's off-screen and brief, but audible, and the character responsible is shamed for it.

There's a brief joke about a sentient suit of armor being kicked in the genitals, but this is played for humor and lampshaded as being implausible.

Several shrunken heads are shown with their eyelids sewn shut. There is a scene where a character attempts to take out their contact lenses, and a character is visibly bothered and grossed out by this

A new mother was killed before the beginning of the movie. Her death plays a considerable part.

There's a few jumpscares with Dracula suddenly growling when he gets angry or defensive. Mostly played for laughs.

A variant with fantasy racism: monsters are racist towards humans and Dracula regularly antagonizes humans before Johnny arrives to the hotel. (Johnny even explicitly calls the monsters "racist".) Humans are shown to antagonize and even attack monsters in flashbacks.

An antagonist character is called Quasimodo. There is nothing monstrous about him. He’s simply a person with a hunchback, but he is treated as though he’s a monster

Yes and no. Mavis is 118 and Johnny is implied to be 21. Despite the 97 year age gap, the whole vampire age vs human age idea puts them at roughly the same mental age/maturity.
