What if vampires’ non-reaction to mirrors is why reflected sunlight does not bother them?
If we can figure out the magic wavelength, we could take out vampires with flashlights.
Reminds me of the part in Bloodlines where you (a vampire) are captured and they run a series of tests, including shining UV rays on you (it doesn’t do anything).
Seemed to work out for Blade.
This is funny, but I think stereotypical vampire lore still stands. I think it’s only direct sunlight that is an issue. If a vampire stands in a room with an open window, but off to the side, they’re generally considered fine. If light reflected off a wall is ok then why is the moon not?
Science: The poison is in the dose.
Language: It’s a good joke, I love it!
also, from what I can find, it looks like the moon only reflects 1-3% of UV light back
Did this really happen?
Everyone is saying it.
Nerds saving lives, one vampire factoid at a time.
count Dracula wasn’t destroyed by sunlight, he just had weaker magical powers. during the day he could only change form at dawn, noon, and dusk, although he maintained that power throughout the entire night.
But he’s the OV (Original Vamp). According to Supernatural logic, the Alpha monster is immune or isn’t affected as badly by weaknesses as converted monsters.
He wasn’t, but Count Orlok from Nosferatu (1922) was
I always head-canon that sunlight reflected off of moon rocks has some property that makes it not dangerous for vampires, sucks out the hamon or something.
