Also can you explain to me the silver with vampires in cameras. In other media say like in being human (UK version) vampires didn't show up in mirrors, cameras, camera phones or anything. I made up a sciency reason for that in my own series VA but what was your thing, something involving silver, I am fascinated

Essentially, silver was among a vampire's banes. It was highly reflective and reflections were said to be your soul made visible, and since vampires had no soul, they had no reflection in silver.
Before the werewolf legend became widespread, vampires were the ones who feared the precious metal.
Polished silver was used as "mirrors" until we developed the silvering process using to coat glass, making mirrors what they are today. Note: we usually use the cheaper aluminium to silver glass nowadays.
Traditional film photography relies on the light sensitivity of silver halide crystals present in film. When the film is exposed to light, the silver-halide crystals change to record a latent image that can be developed into a photograph. Due to the presence of silver, the vampire legend expanded to say that a vampire cannotbe photographed.
In my series, Zodiac Pack, vampires have capitalized on humans being ignorant of those processes and enjoy living among humans, being seen in digital pictures and most modern mirrors.

That's interesting, in Being human they had no reflection at all. It was known as old nick's wink as a reminder to them that they had no soul and were a part of his forces. In my series V.A it's revealed that vampires actually degenerated from an alien race which were present in the first moments of the universe but consuming human blood had corrupted their DNA and made them primal and feral. Also because on their planet the only light they got was moonlight (ie reflected light) their bodies became unable to absorb or reflect light at all and thus they cast no visage in mirrors and film. The way to detect them via the latter was through vibrating them and such forming a shakey visage. I may not be too down with the science but I like to think I got a few things sort of right.

But I like your explaination, it's mythology based and that's cool.
