People are freaking out over a spooky photo of Mike Pence’s family (PHOTO)
Donald Trump’s running mate, Mike Pence, inadvertently created an internet frenzy when he posted a picture of his family on Twitter that some have taken as evidence that his daughter is vampire – or even a ghost.
Pence shared what initially appeared to be a normal photo of his family enjoying a meal while on the campaign trail in New York – only there was something very strange about it.
Busy weekend in NY! Enjoying a quick dinner with the family at @Chilis. Looking forward to getting back to Indiana. pic.twitter.com/SUFjYcvQpH

His daughter Charlotte appears to make no reflection in the mirror behind them.
Pence and his wife Karen’s reflections can both be seen, but Charlotte’s is non-existent.
@mike_pence@Chilis - Where is the reflection of the woman in white? Does Chili's cause people to become vampires?!

@mike_pence@Chilis sir I don't mean to be rude but your daughter might be a vampire just sayin

While the non-existent reflection could be explained as a visual trick, and his daughter is small, her curly hair can’t be seen in the reflection either.
@mike_pence@Chilis so we just gonna act like we don't see that his daughters reflection Is not in the mirror 😷🤔

No one has explained yet why Pence's daughter doesn't appear in the mirror. It's really strange! https://t.co/v1dZ0dyuXF

@fmanjoo is it a mirror? Maybe there's another very similar family that is also running for vice president at the table next to them

One possible explanation given was that she was photoshopped into the image.
@camilleregan@fmanjoo She was shopped in (I'm guessing) to improve his family cred. She probably doesn't speak to him in real life!

@fmanjoo@myecoll@mike_pence@Chilis She was mortified to be seen with him, had to be photoshoped in by the logo designer.

She's a witch!
Other people were more concerned about the boy in red that can be seen in the reflection, but not at the table.
@furso27@fmanjoo@bruce_arthur@mike_pence@Chilis yes! Let's move onto the boy in red in the mirror.

@fmanjoo I'm more confused about the half black blob by pence's wife's reflection. Seems like it'd be in view of picture

While the mystery of Pence’s ghost/vampire daughter was debated online, many others were more upset by the Indiana governor’s choice of restaurant – Chili’s – which is a restaurant chain.
@PowerMan4Evr@Olivianuzzi@mike_pence you don't eat at chain restaurants in NYC....ever
— Nate Semmel (@FedTaxes) July 16, 2016
@mike_pence you came to New York City and went to @Chilis???? Shameful.
— Dion Rabouin (@DionRabouin) July 16, 2016
.@mike_pence this is an insult to the people of New York.

.@mike_pence@Chilis There's a great underground Italian eatery for next time you're in NY--the Olive Garden.
