SPOILERS!!! The main antagonist was forced to obtain the role of his younger sister after she dies when they are younger and is abused when he refuses. He then kills his parents and years later kidnaps girls and locks them up and makes them "be" his younger sister Carrie Anne.

Long-term child abuse is a major element of the plot. In addition to that more explicit thread, the teenage protagonist refers to her mother's past pattern of neglect several times.

When Elissa goes to the party with Tyler after her mom picks up her first night shift, he becomes drunk and attempts to force himself on her in a spare bedroom despite her saying no and telling her to get off of him. He does let her go after trying to push himself on her multiple times, but it's still a scene that can very easily not be fun to view.

The main character has to burn her own wrist to burn the rope holding her, which might make you think of cutting.

Heads are banged against the wall and a kid’s head is smashed in when she falls off a swing - we don’t see this, but hear the sound.

It is hinted at that the killer puts blue contacts in the eyes of unwilling, probably sedated victims, but at least we never see this.

A police officer actively stands up for an ostracised character and goes out of their way to help their community. Highly unlikely.

The plot itself is ableist in multiple ways. The initial set up is that a young girl with a brain disorder murdered her parents a couple years before and townspeople are afraid she's still hiding out in the woods. More Details & Spoilers: The original backstory of the child is that she got a traumatic brain injury that turned her violent. Some twists reveal that it was actually childhood trauma that turned the child violent, and the child goes on to violently abuse and manipulate others.
