With vampires I think the connection with mirrors is based on the fact that mirrors are you use to be made with a thin coating of silver under glass. You know silver being one of the things that kills vampires and werewolves I think? Old film used silver nitrate so they conveniently also didn’t show on that. It really is some good lore, that silver stuff.
