When he’d first seen it, the lake had been simply a crime scene in his mind, but up here it took on something else entirely. It was a black mirror, the surface as glass and reflecting the stars above, though for a moment Harry felt as though he was looking down through a window, a hole or a portal perhaps, and into another place completely.
That’s why they do attempted contact with the paranormal in front of a mirror & candlelight, also a bowl of water can be used. Not something I’d do, you don’t know what you’d really be talking with, and if we thunk there’s a lot of evil in this world?… we ain’t seen nothing yet. I also won’t look into mirrors in the dark. It may all be silly superstitions, but my pov, don’t mess with something you don’t understand.
