Mirror Scare: Difference between revisions

* This happened once in ''[[Death Note]]''; it's how Misa meets {{spoiler|Rem for the second time after losing her memories of the Death Note.}}

 

* ''[[Mirrors]]'' uses this trope throughout the entire film.

** As does its original, the Korean ''Into The Mirror''.

* Used in a way in the [[Broken Sky]] series; the secret police of [[Big Bad|King Macaan]], the Jachyra, can see, hear, and even travel through mirrors, or anything sufficiently reflective. This causes a number scares with the mirror being stationary, as well as the main characters being incredibly paranoid around them. Any base which the [[La Résistance|Parakka]] make has no reflective surfaces whatsoever.

* ''[[The Dresden Files]]'' has an [[Eldritch Abomination]] called "He Who Walks Behind." As his name implies, He is ''always'' behind you, no matter where you turn, so the only way to see Him is in a mirror. Harry first encountered Him while looking at an arcade game. [[Walking Techbane|It shorts out]], and ''something'' appears reflected in the screen. Harry turns around; nothing there. Harry turns back; He Who Walks Behind is now standing two feet closer ''and smiling''.
