There is a tense flashback between one son and his mom where she was yelling at him to get out. He was an adult at the time.

I would not count what is happening in the film as stalking-- a shadowy figure is shown in the background of a lot of scenes in the house appearing to observe the characters. The characters are not aware of the shadow figure. Sort of ghost-like menacing.

Kind of. <<spoilers>> This movie revolves around a cult that sacrifices babies in exchange for a weird, uniform emotional happiness. <<super spoilers>>
When the main characters baby is taken, he is told by his wife, brother and mother that this is okay, that the baby is "going to a better place" and he is physically held back from stopping the sacrifice.

Not on screen, but you see the burnt body of a teenager.
A baby is taken by a shadow man, and disappears.

It could depend on your interpretation of what happens to the babies after the Shadow man takes them. <<spoilers>> main characters infant daughter is taken by Shadowman and at the end of the film it shows him researching, with the implied intent that he's trying to find his daughter.

Ish. Someone is shown repeating two sentences in the middle of the night as if they were sleepwalking. But then the other person is shown waking up so it's possible it was just an odd dream. Heavy cult mentality though.

There is mention of a possible but unconfirmed suicide attempt. At the time the person in question is missing so it's not certain.

<<spoilers>> the movie revolves around a cult that sacrifices children. Several babies are shown, and pregnant women. One baby is shown being given to the Shadow man and disappearing. One baby is held by creepy cult dude while the adults crowd around, it is implied that this child and others met the same fate.
