One of my friends who used to live in Japan told me a story ( I was 14 then, I think ) about monsters called "Kyoma Demons" that live in mirrors and look just like you, but if you turn your back they show their true form and emerge from the mirror to grab you and pull you into an alternate universe, and you would be trapped in the mirror while they lived your life. I still find it hard to go to the bathroom without a wrench, hammer, or some other blunt object to defend myself.
