violence

There is supernatural violence as people are attacked by ghosts and as people try to stop ghosts, for example by using devices to trap them. However, the tone is comic and exciting rather than scary.

threat and horror

There are a number of scenes in which ghosts appear. While there are some jump moments, the ghosts are not particularly frightening and the comic context helps to reduce the imapct of any scares. In one scene, a woman's fur coat comes to life and attacks her, while in another scene there is sight of severed heads. In another scene, there is a moment of tension when a baby crawls onto the ledge of a building.

language

There is use of mild bad language, including 'shit' and 'crap'.

sex

There are some comic sex references and innuendo, such as references to whether a man sleeps with a ghost and a man saying he wants to carry out a gynacological examination on a woman. There is also a scene in which it's implied a couple are going to have sex, although nothing is shown.

nudity

There is brief non sexual nudity when people change and shower.

injury detail

There is brief sight of severed heads.

alcohol and smoking

Adult characters drink alcohol.
