Mirrors are doors to another dimension, and you can just walk right through.
Well you could, if the people known as "reflections" were there to keep us out.

REFLECTIONS
Emily Brooks, seeking a fresh start, moves into a charming but old apartment. In the living room, she discovers an antique mirror, accompanied by a cryptic note: "The mirror shows what the eyes cannot." Initially dismissing it as a quirky piece of furniture, Emily soon experiences unsettling occurrences. Her reflection begins to act independently, displaying disturbing and eerie scenes not present in reality. Curious and alarmed, Emily learns from her elderly neighbor, Mrs. Hargrove, that the mirror was once owned by Lydia Darrow, a woman who vanished mysteriously years ago. The rumor is that Lydia was obsessed with the mirror, which is said to be cursed. Driven by a need for answers, Emily investigates Lydia's history and discovers hidden symbols on the mirror's frame that seem to suggest a dark, arcane connection. As the mirror's influence grows, Emily's reality distorts, revealing her deepest fears and regrets. Her confrontation with the mirror reveals a nightmarish alternate dimension where she encounters Lydia Darrow, now a spectral figure trapped within. Lydia's despairing message hints that Emily may be the next victim of the mirror's curse. Desperate to escape, Emily faces her own inner demons and finds the strength to break free. She returns to her reality, only to find the mirror calm and seemingly benign. However, as she prepares to leave the apartment, her reflection in the mirror gives a knowing smile and whispers, "It's not over." Emily leaves, but the mirror's eerie allure remains, hinting at its persistent, dark influence. The story concludes with lingering suspense about whether the mirror's malevolent force has truly been vanquished or if it is merely biding its time for another victimComplete
