Modern ghost novels often feature contemporary settings. They might blend elements of horror, mystery, and the supernatural. For example, they could be set in modern cities with haunted houses or cursed buildings. The ghosts in these novels may also have more complex backstories related to modern issues like family secrets or past traumas.
They also play with the psychological state of the characters. In 'Mexican Gothic', the protagonist's state of mind is constantly in flux as she tries to figure out what's real and what's not in the strange mansion. This internal struggle adds depth to the horror.
Hey, let me recommend you a few modern ghost catching novels!
1. <Chaos of the Well of Rebirth>: A political woman who has been reborn has opened her own supernatural ability to catch ghosts and has made a name for herself in society.
2. "Ghost Wife: I am Hades": The female protagonist caught ghosts and exorcised them, so she conveniently brought along a ghost wife, and this ghost wife was also her Hades.
3. "Night of a Hundred Ghosts": The female protagonist was a ghost hunter. She took in some female ghosts and solved strange events and suspense while catching ghosts.

Some great modern ghost story novels include 'Bag of Bones' by Stephen King. King is a master of horror, and this book is no exception. It has a great blend of the supernatural and human drama. 'The Little Stranger' by Sarah Waters is also a wonderful choice. It's set in a decaying English country house and has a sense of unease and mystery that slowly unfolds. Additionally, 'The Graveyard Book' by Neil Gaiman is an interesting take on the ghost story genre. It follows a boy who is raised in a graveyard by ghosts, and it has a unique charm along with its spooky elements.
I recommend the novel,"Put on the extras quickly: Loyal Dog Male God's Kiss", to you. Although the theme was not entirely modern, there were some elements mixed in. For example, the male protagonist had the attributes of a loyal dog and the skills of the gods and ghosts. Moreover, this was a TL novel with a sweet plot. The male protagonist was also very loyal to the female protagonist, which was very suitable for the male protagonist's loyal dog attribute under the theme of ghosts and gods.

😋I recommend the following two novels to you:
" Yixuan Ghost Story " and " Old House Ghost Story " were both modern romance novels about urban life, telling the story of the female protagonist and ghosts. "Yixuan Ghost Story" tells the story of the indissolvable bond between the female protagonist and the ghosts, and where the gears of fate will lead them."Old House Ghost Story" takes the form of a story collection, showing the kind and simple feelings of the ghosts. I hope you like it. Muah!
One of the best modern ghost novels is 'The Haunting of Hill House' by Shirley Jackson. It's a classic that creates a really spooky atmosphere with its old, haunted house setting and the psychological tension among the characters.
Susan Hill is another author. Her 'The Woman in Black' is a famous modern ghost story. It tells a terrifying tale of a vengeful ghost and is set in a desolate and spooky location, creating a very effective horror story.
😋I recommend "Monster Hunter Cop" and "City Monster Hunter" to you. The protagonist of the former is destined to become a monster hunter goddess and falls into a world full of monsters and danger, while the protagonist of the latter is a mysterious monster hunter master. He hunts monsters and fights evil in the city, using his special ability. I hope you like this fairy's recommendation. Muah ~😗
