If you want some modern fantasy crossed with Japanese horror, looks up the Garo live action franchise sometime. It was a late night drama series aimed at adults, fair warning, but in more of an actual mature way. General concept is a secret order of knights with mystic armor protecting humanity from monsters created by the dark side of humanity, made manifest, called Horrors, who possess everyday objects that have been suffused with large amounts of negative karma, and who then use humanity's vices against them in order to devour them. Certain episodes get -really- creepy, like the manhole episode, the mermaid episode, and the tree episode. There's a few anime series too, that take it to other settings. Though tbf the live action doesn't have a dub, and I think the anime series do, but they don't get as dark as some of the live action stuff, or as creative, like with the movie theater episode in season 4(Makai no Hana).
The series design was done by Keita Amemiya, famous for his Final Fantasy boss designs, and considered the Japanese Tim Burton, if that tells you anything.
