Graphic: Blood, Death, Toxic relationship, Murder, Emotional abuse, Domestic abuse, Mental illness, and Gaslighting

Moderate: Infidelity, Sexual content, Religious bigotry, and Incest

None of the characters are related, but they keep referring to themselves as "sister", "son", etc. That's why I put incest as cw.
