Mirror People
The Mirror People are a kind of horror that inhabit the Place on the Other Side that exists within some mirrors.
Overview
| “ | Look at me. | ” |
Ordinarily trapped behind their mirrors, these horrors take forms mimicking those who look into them. They resent the endless void in which they are trapped, a void that only takes on a facsimile of life when the mirror is viewed. They wish to escape that prison, and bring along all others of their kind. Their leaving merely requires that the viewer look into the mirror a bit too long or catch it out of the corner of the eye.
Only some mirrors reflect the Place on the Other Side. It cannot be determined which and remains unknown why.
Appearance
The Mirror People lack an appearance of their own. When not viewed, they merely do not exist in the void of unreality. When viewed, they look precisely the same as the viewer, but flipped along the long axis. Additionally, at times, they have other tells, like "stretching" along their body as they move, be it a long, funhouse grin or an arm grasping out the mirror.
