Ever read 'Beloved' by Toni Morrison? It's a monumental work where the supernatural is the direct, undeniable consequence of horrific trauma. The ghost isn't a metaphor; it's a literal, demanding presence born from an unspeakable act. The emotional drama is raw, historical, and deeply painful, exploring motherhood, memory, and the legacy of slavery. The supernatural element is the engine for the entire plot and the emotional catharsis.
'White is for Witching' by Helen Oyeyemi is a stunning, challenging read. The house is a character, haunted and haunting, tied to family history and racial tension. The emotional drama is about identity, inheritance, and madness, all filtered through a fragmented, poetic narrative. The supernatural is less a separate element and more the very fabric of the characters' reality and their fraught connections.
'The Book of Cold Cases' by Simone St. James (again, she's great at this). A true-crime blogger interviews a woman acquitted of murders decades prior, in her possibly haunted mansion. The emotional drama is about two women haunted by the past—one by alleged crimes, the other by childhood trauma. The ghost story intertwines with their personal reckonings with violence and fear.

The man who stood at the door to the kitchen walked forward and the light illuminated his features.
He was lean and tall, very tall. Dressed in a white long sleeved shirt and dark suit pants, the few exposed parts of his body were ashen, lifeless and cold, like a bleak winter day.
"Marry me." These were the two words that came from the deathly pale lips of his emotionless face...

The ghost as a metaphor for inherited trauma is a powerful angle. 'Beloved' is the pinnacle. But also, 'Home' by Toni Morrison deals with a Korean War vet haunted by his past. In a different genre, the film 'Hereditary' (and novels with similar themes) show the ghost as a literal family curse, where the grief and horror are passed down through generations. The supernatural visit isn't a one-time event; it's a legacy. You're not just mourning a person; you're mourning the damage their death (or life) caused, and that damage becomes its own haunting entity for the next generation.
For a lighter, but still melancholic take, 'The Ghost and Mrs. Muir' is a classic. The romance between the widow Lucy Muir and the ghost of Captain Gregg is charming, witty, and ultimately tragic because, well, he’s a ghost. Their relationship is a meeting of minds and spirits, but the impossibility of it gives the whole story a gentle, eerie, and bittersweet feeling. The hauntings are friendly, but the underlying sadness of their situation is always there.
