Can they rush in after the first two words, before you say “not”? Can they enter if they stuff their ears before they hear the final word?

    This inspired me to keep a handheld mirror near my front door, for when someone inevitably asks if they can come in, I can grab it and do a very obvious vampire check

      I hope your can find a mirror made with silver, most modern ones aren’t, and that’s why vampires didn’t show up in them

        Dude. Thank you. I would’ve let so many vampires in.

        As much as I appreciate it though, we’re poor as fuck, vampires still welcome.

            Or stab a stake in their heart! If they are a vampire, they will either instantly turn to dust or at least be paralysed, so you can easily dispose of them.

            Otherwise it’s going to be just ordinary murder.

        You’re mixing stuff up. Mirrors reflect souls, and since vampires don’t have souls, they don’t have no reflections.

          By that logic, no inanimate objects should show up either. I’d look in a mirror and would see behind me through the back wall and all the way to my neighbors inside their now invisible soulless house, and all neighbors beyond. It’d just be a bunch of people at various distances in my mirror line of sight in an infinite void behind me as far as the eye can see. And we’d all appear naked.
