Technically speaking, yes. The story revolves around Abigail (17 at the point in the movie) who had an affair with John who was probably well over 20. This was set during the Salem Witch Trials, however, so this was seen as “normal”

Ann Putnam, also called Goody Putnam, has had seven stillborn babies. The deaths are not shown on screen, and it happens much before the movie takes place. It’s only mentioned.

No, but the closest thing is a needle in a poppet. The poppet isn’t destroyed, however it is grabbed rather roughly.

A needle is found in a poppet, and characters talk about Abigail having a needle in her stomach (implying the poppet was a voodoo doll, but she was faking that). The latter is not shown, only mentioned.

Some characters refuse to take actions even knowing it will lead to their deaths, but dying is not their goal.

This is set in Salem, Massachusetts in the 1600s, so religion is kind of the main premise of the movie.
