Profanity

Mild
145 of 182 found this mild
Bullshit, ass and dick are used once each. Goddamn, damn and hell are used 2 times. Also 1 faint f-word.
Damn and other profanities are briefly seen scrawled on a piece of paper, however they're very easy to miss.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

Mild
132 of 181 found this mild
A man and woman drink wine and appear a little tipsy.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

Moderate
130 of 256 found this moderate
Scenes where ghosts appear can be found disturbing, startling, upsetting, dark, and suspenseful.
The behavior of the mentally troubled Vincent Grey (Donnie Wahlberg) is disturbing.
A few genuine frights. Eerie atmosphere throughout. The scary bits are so well woven into the story that they are more thought provoking than frightening.
Two boys locks the boy inside the cupboard, screaming for help. That might be very upsetting for viewers.
The boy yells at his teacher and calling "Stuttering Stanley" over and over until he teacher stop him by slamming his fist on the boy's desk and tell him to shut up then he called him a freak.
A few jump scenes.
