Mirror People

Dracula
By Dracula

According to an old Chinese myth, at the beginning of time there were two kinds of people.
These people were constantly at war, fighting each other forever in never-ending battles.
The enjoyment of life had reached zero-point and a wizard (these existed at the time) decided to cast a spell: he banned the most gruesome people to the reflecting inside of the mirror; they were doomed to imitate physical appearance, movement and facial expression to the end of time.
At last there was peace and man lived in prosperity as he admired himself in the reflecting surface of the mirror. Spellbound by narcissistic urges, he soon forgot about the mirror people, trapped behind the silver coating.
Yet, a wizard's spell, as powerful as it may strike, never lasts forever: it gradually loosens and frays at the edges at a vexingly slow rate.
The mirror people find their revenge in deception.

...just as you might stand in front of the mirror, you may notice a small movement of the elbow, an eyebrow that seems a little out of place or a shifty look that seems strangely unfamiliar - the mirror becomes not a reflection of what you are but, moreover, of what you wish you were not.

Bloody regards,
Drac
(Note for myself:The vampire's mirror: a parable. Everybody knows that a vampire cannot see himself in the mirror.)

Vampires can't have reflections, but Bats can! However, bats can't see. A real quandry.
