Do vampires cast a shadow? Because if they cast a shadow, would they actually be able to see through themselves in a mirror, or would they just see a big void in the shape of their body as the light from behind them hits their body but not the mirror? ๐Ÿค”

Ummm... Because shadows aren't a solid mass. They're just where light isn't. So even in a case where a vampire casts a shadow, it wouldn't matter, mirrors still work in the dark.

mirrors still work in the dark.

I mean, do they? Mirrors reflect light. If there's no light then there's nothing for the mirror to do.

This is like saying a water wheel works without water. No it doesn't, it just sits there.
