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.

Infinite reflection mirrors work by using two parallel mirrors facing each other. When light is reflected between the mirrors, it creates an endless series of reflections. This phenomenon is based on the principle of multiple reflections, where each reflection produces a new image that is reflected again and again, creating the illusion of infinite reflections.

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.
