A diet of vampires then  rubschin:

Now I though that Vampires can cast a shadow (in moonlight obviously)  but do not show a reflection in a mirror.

According to the internet (Wiki and many films etc) vampires cast a shadow (See the movie "Shadow of the Vampire) but their reflections are not to be seen in a mirror.
According to legend it is the silver used on the backs of glass to create a mirror which give the vampire the problem although Hollywood have, over the years, exaggerated this to include all reflective surfaces.
Modern mirrors do not use silver as the backing although the process is still called "silvering"


Zombies deffo flesh! All be it rotting flesh.

Shall we change the subject?

Vampires in films would have to cast a shadow cos they aren't real vampires, they are actors  ::)

You reckon that they employed real vampires to play vampires in films?

3. Boil the potatoes in a pan of salted water and the turnips and swede together in another until cooked. Mash the potatoes with half the butter and enough milk to achieve the preferred consistency. Season to taste. Mash the turnips and swedes with the remaining butter and season with black pepper.
