As soon as people invented the mirror, they immediately endowed it with mystical powers. Young girls looked out for future husbands in the mirrors, and sorcerers studied the future. The mirror was closed in the house where the deceased lay, so that his soul would not get there. In Asia, mirrors were hung over the front door of a house to protect themselves from evil spirits. Thousands of legends have been written about the mysticism of mirrors. However, as we know, in every fairy tale, there is some truth.
In ancient legends, vampire mirrors are often mentioned. Our ancestors knew that you shouldn't hang an old and unfamiliar mirror in your house. After all, it is not known what this mirror saw and what it remembers. Perhaps it saw quarrels, murder, violence, but it is impossible to recognize such a mirror. In Slavic traditions, it was always customary to treat mirrors with caution. The mirror was often called a gift from Satan. And not without reason. For example, Tsar Ivan the Terrible believed in corruption, curse and evil eye. He was so afraid of mirrors that blind craftsmen made them especially for him.
Damn mirror. Eyewitness Valentina Ivanovna
At 23 I gave birth to a girl. Beautiful and healthy Julia, went to school and began to play with her peers on the street. Like all children, my daughter often ran away with friends from home to the forest, then to the lake. But by the lake there was a house of ill fame. For fifteen years no one entered it. An ordinary family once lived in that house. However, no one knows why the owner of that house killed his wife, two young sons, and then hanged himself. Of course, children were forbidden to come close to the accursed house.
As you know, prohibitions for children act exactly the opposite. Julia with two boys made her way into that house. There the children found old photographs, newspapers and other junk. Julia was interested in the mirror, which was covered with a cloth. She, without thinking twice, pulled off a rag and began to admire herself.
Suddenly the boys, who were looking at all kinds of junk at the other end of the room, heard Yulia's cry. They got scared and rushed to her. The girl sat on the floor in a state of shock, with empty eyes full of horror. The guys took the insane girl out of the house.
Since that day, Julia has not said a word. She looked creepy, gradually turning into a vegetable. Julia was admitted to the hospital, but the doctors could not do anything. Three months later, the girl died, and since that day I have not kept a single mirror in the house.

What did the girl see in the mirror? Comments by parapsychologists
It is difficult to answer this question precisely. She could see terrible events in the mirror, the ghost of a killer, or some other evil force. It doesn't matter who the girl saw there, but we can say with complete confidence that it took all the vitality from her. Mirrors that have witnessed such events are best destroyed immediately. This also applies to those mirrors used by sorcerers and witches, or those who saw the dead.
