Vampires are considered to be the undead. Since they are not living beings, they cannot be reflected. Plus their pale skin reflects the sunlight too and shines brightly.

Why do vampires cover their mirrors?

You can blame Bram Stoker for this one. In his story, Jonathan Harker notes that the mirrors in the house are all missing or covered. His own travel mirror for shaving is broken when the Count looks into it. Other popular legends state that mirrors are covered as to not give away the presence of a Vampire, since they cannot, traditionally, cast reflections. -Indiriel -- This stereotype is the result of only a few vampires having an aversion to their own reflections and is not typical of all. Some vampires are not entirely comfortable with what they have become (a vampire of course) and shrink from the sight of their reflection as it brings to mind what they once were, their present condition, what it is that they do, and all the incidences that lead up to it ect.


Why don't vampires show up in mirrors?

Vampires don't mind mirrors actually. They are afraid of crosses but not mirrors. The connection between mirrors and vampires is that vampires can't be seen in mirrors. I suppose if mirrors did bother a vampire it would be because perhaps they are tortured by the fact that they can never be human again, and not being able to see their reflection would be a reminder of this.

Do the vampires in twilight have reflections?

Yes. the vampires in twilight do have reflections. it is just a myth that they dont, humans just made the myth up so they would think they would stand a chance at defeating a vampire. Some vampires have had trouble in accepting the fact of their new existence and couldn't bear to see their reflections: a reminder of who they were and what they have become. Other vampires have suffered great denial, refusing to see the fact of their reflection. From instances such as this has evolved the myth of a vampire not having a reflection.
