Completely tangential to this excellent thread, i want to bring up one of my hobbyhorses, which is: there's absolutely no reason to think that vampires wouldn't show up in digital photos or reflect in modern mirrors, just like normal people.https://twitter.com/AlexandraErin/status/1269356227596816384 …

Anyway I was mad at What We Do in the Shadows for weakening this weakness and having the vampires shocked and delighted they can see their "reflections" in a cell phone camera Then I realized it's a mockumentary and if it doesn't work like that it can't exist

There was a British series, Ultraviolet, which extended this to any sort of recording or retransmission device: phones couldn't pick up their voices, for example. The vampires had workarounds for some of them (eg voice synthesizers, TTY) but the writers had a lot of fun with it.
