I think the difference between if a ghost appears all messed up and gruesome has something to do with whether they have a shrine set up. This man with the cats and wife has a small room shrine to both his wife and two cats, and in Miko’s house they have an in house shrine dedicated to him as well. I think all the scary spirits are people who died without proper funeral rights and/or have no one to care about them. The ‘good spirits’ are probably using the shrine as a portal to visit from the afterlife or as a tether to continue watching over their loved ones.
 
I actually like this sudden small feels trip... thank you.

Wow I didn't feel bad enough for the cat guy before but I'm glad he's got something with the new cat.

Also the little nekomata fistbump is gold.
 
The cat dude can see them as well?
Nevermind, i misread what he said.
 
@ cornonthekopp

That’s actually a really interesting theory. It makes me wonder what purpose of the shrine they visited is...
