10 Scariest Cursed Items In Horror Movie History
4. The Mirror - Oculus
A problematic mirror isn't a new concept. Amityville: A New Generation, From Beyond The Grave, and of course the inventively titled Mirrors all toy with the idea of a mirror being a gateway to something insidious, and Oculus joins their ranks with an evil iteration that turns those reflected into the worst versions of themselves.
Supernaturally implanting hallucinations that cause them to lose their minds, the Russell family each succumb to the mirror's dark intent - though it's never actually clear what its presumably demonic origin is.
In any case, unless you're dedicated to looking a mess, a haunted mirror really is an issue. For one so easily to reach out and warp the minds of those simply near it is pretty terrifying: even if it does really make the room look bigger and add some antique chic, it's best to just get yourself a store-bought instead of a frame forged in the fires of hell.
