I can think of a couple of series off the top of my head.

Full Metal Alchemist(the first one) is clearly Western in setting, and takes place in a parallel world before World War II. There is definitely some supernatural things to it, with homunculi and alchemists and there is some really dark things once you get into some of the backstory. It's done by Bones and Edward Elric is a pretty good protagonist too.

Gosick is a mystery series set in 1924 in Europe. It follows a Japanese student who just transfered in and a mysterious blonde-haired girl named Victorique who wears dresses that look pretty Victorian. There is some supernatural and dark stuff once you get into Victorique's backstory. It's also done by Bones so the animation quality is pretty good. You can also watch it on Crunchyroll.
