Fun Vampire Fact; the reason that Vampires traditionally cannot see their reflections in a mirror is because mirrors used to be backed with a reflective layer of silver ā which, as the metal of purity, would not āinteractā with Vampires, who are the Devilās work.
However, modern mirrors have used aluminum as their reflective backing for many years now ā and aluminum is not a āpickyā metal at all. So Vampires are able to see their reflections in modern mirrors.
All I can think about is a vampire used to not seeing their reflection in mirrors for centuries, and one day they are just walking along and unknowingly pass a mirror backed with aluminum and THEY NEARLY SHIT THEMSELVES.
