New blog post - Beyond Reflections: The Secret Sentience of Mirrors and Their Paranormal Presence

Mirrors are mesmerizing and for a good reason. Their shiny, reflective surface is not only aesthetically pleasing, but they contain mystery

originally, I was trying to find a floor-length mirror for my bedroom at estate sales...since you can get a great deal and find something unique. but then I heard a scary story about a haunted estate sale mirror (it brought demons into a person’s house, since the theory is that mirrors are portals to other worlds) and I started to reconsider getting a second-hand mirror. and every time I share this with someone, they’re like, oh you can’t buy a second-hand mirror, of course it’s a portal to another world. or that you have to cleanse the mirror before bringing it into the house. so this seems to be common knowledge. but on the other hand, does a full-price mirror from IKEA have 0% likelihood of being haunted?

Eisoptrophobia is the fear of mirrors. Often this phobia stems from fear of being put into contact with the spiritual world through a mirror. Many sufferers realize that their fear is irrational, but this doesn’t stop them from feeling terror around mirrors.

Mirrors and the Supernatural

Unless you are a vampire, chances are that you have at least one mirror in your home. However, did you know that your mirror may be a gateway to the spirit realm? Or did you know about how it can be used as a tool to divine your future? Unbeknownst to many, mirrors have a long history of being connected to the supernatural.

As far back as ancient china, there was a belief in the “fauna of mirrors.” According to this belief, each mirror is the entrance to an alternate universe filled with creatures from another realm. Other cultures also believed that mirrors have the power to capture and trap souls. They say that the reflection we see is actually our souls staring back at us (Hence why vampires do not have a reflection). This belief still hangs around today with several cultures burying the dead with their mirrors to prevent the deceased’s spirit from becoming trapped in them. Others will cover mirrors with a cloth if someone dies in a home in order to prevent the wandering spirit from being stuck in them. Today, some still believe that having a mirror directly in front of your bed is an ill omen, as it invites either your soul to become stuck in it or other spirits to come out.

On many occasions, mirrors have been cited as the source of hauntings in homes troubled by spirits or demons. For whatever reason, even if a spirit is not necessarily trapped in the mirror itself, catching a glimpse of a ghost in a mirror in a haunted home is rather common. The most common types of ghostly sightings in mirrors are shadow people, mists, and faces.

Other than holding spirits, mirrors can be used for divination or scrying. However, it is important to use proper protective spells before trying to use the mirror for these purposes, and to cover it afterwards, as this can sometimes open a portal to the spirit world. Portals may also be opened by using an Ouija board near a mirror.
