| One urban legend has that if you say “Bloody Mary” thirteen times in front of a candle lit mirror while brushing your hair, the revenging spirit of a woman will appear to disfigure you. In Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, Harry discovers the Mirror of Erised that brings you face-to-face with your yearning desires, and as Professor Dumbledore explains to Harry, the mirror has been the cause of downfall of many. In Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking Glass, Alice's mirror is truly a mirror to a strange world. In early days, the mirror was actually a sheet of polished metal like silver and copper. |
