Then there's 'Dracula' which, while often thought of as a horror novel, also has strong gothic romance elements, especially in the relationship between the characters and the allure of the vampire. 'Frankenstein' can also be considered in this genre to some extent, as it has a complex relationship between the creator and the created, set against a backdrop of mystery and the unknown.

The salted fish female supporting role, she just wants to lie down

Su Miaoyu had liked to read novels since she was young. She was extremely envious of the plot in the novel. She was arrogant and fell in love with the fast-acting and face-slapping type of novels. She could not help but want to learn all kinds of skills. Su Miaoyu, who was not afraid of death, did all kinds of things that could transmigrate, but she did not get the system that could help her realize her wish of face-slapping. It was just that when she had already given up on the ward area and was ready to step into the nursing home to enjoy her old age with her old friends, she was taken away by the salted fish revival system that was decades late to carry out a mission. The dumbfounded Su Miaoyu refused to admit defeat and prepared to be a salted fish. However, reality did not cooperate. In addition to the various instigations of the system at the beginning, she finally managed to subdue the system as a little fan. However, the system's superior could not see her comfortable. Every time she transmigrated, there would be a problem with the plot or someone would cause trouble. Su Miaoyu, who was a salted fish, didn't want to make a comeback at all. Unfortunately, she owed the system a huge sum of money and could only think of ways to fulfill her dream of being a salted fish while paying off the debt. In the first world, she had finally fallen in love with a single mother, but she was stabbed by Mo Chengyuan, who was controlled by the world's consciousness. From then on, she had a shadow over men. In the second world, she even met Mo Chengyuan, who had the same name as her and looked the same as her. Her mission in this world was to survive from him, and Su Miaoyu, who had no plot hints, lived carefully… (I don't know if there will be a male protagonist in this novel. According to my initial expectations, there will be one, but it's hard to say for sure now. Everyone, be careful.)
