Violence and frightening imagery
Characters are seen fighting each other with blades and objects, they sometimes also throw things at each other. There is hardly any serious injury, and most of the violence is undetailed and comedic.
There are scenes which includes frightening imagery. For example, scary skeleton toys and puppets hanging in a dark room. The town has a gloomy and tense atmosphere. Although it's not really shocking, younger viewers may still find it disturbing.
