Characters are smacked and beaten, though always briefly and in a comic context. A man briefly shakes his wife, though this is ultimately condemned. During a sword-fighting sequence, a person's clothing is slashed.

language
Very mild bad language ('damn') is used.
sex
There are occasional undetailed verbal sex references in a comic context.
discrimination
The term 'dwarf' is briefly used in an undirected manner.
rude humour
There is a brief gag featuring burping.
injury detail
Animated corpses are shown with skeletal detail, severed limbs, and decaying body parts, though always in a fantastical and comic fashion.
alcohol and smoking
Characters occasionally drink alcohol and smoke pipes.
theme
There are occasional upsetting moments centred around death and murder, though the overall tone is reassuring.

threat and horror
There are occasional scenes of mild horror, although these are presented as morbidly fun rather than frightening. Examples include a corpse whose eye repeatedly drops out of its socket, and friendly ghosts and skeletons who reveal the manners of their death, such as swords protruding from their chests. Although there are brief 'jump moments', the horror imagery is balanced with humour and songs.
