Right, I get what you're saying. So I guess you'd have to fall back on the lore... There's some that says they don't cast shadows, some that do, and if you consider Bram Stoker's Dracula, he's able to control his shadow. Then I guess also the lore for why they don't have reflections comes into play? Either because the mirror is coated in silver, which destroys their reflection, or because the mirror reflects the soul, and vampires don't have souls.

I dunno, I guess it all depends which mythos you want to follow and just how much you're willing to ignore basic physics.
