@Paranormal Yes, I do. All over the world, there are stories about mirrors acting as either literal portals to another dimension or realm or as a figurative portal one uses to examine ones self. And now I need to contemplate using this in one of my stories. Thanks for the inspiration!

@Paranormal Logically, I would say no, that mirrors can’t be portals. That it’s just the result of an hyperactive imagination and unreleased stress plotting against one’s mind. But then, I also tend to avoid looking at or standing too close at them at night… Like I could actually be trapped in the otherside by my own reflection, a corrupted and underworldly version of myself. I love when this fear is used in fiction as it both talks to me and keeps my interest into understanding what the hell is going on. “Vampires” use that concept a lot too as they can’t see themselves in the mirror after they have “awaken”… As if something darker had replaced them in exchange of immortality.

@Paranormal Whether or not they’re real portals, mirrors are perfect for stories... because every reflection carries a version of us we can’t control.”
