Both “magic mirror” and “mirror, mirror” are correct depending on the source. This Mandela Effect is unique in a way because in this case, it’s actually correct or incorrect, depending on the context. It’s the version of the phrase that I always said when referencing it.
I, like many others also believed “mirror, mirror” to be correct. The original story is very short and Disney heavily expanded on everything. The “Magic Mirror” itself is also referred to as “Slave in the Magic Mirror” or “Spirit of the Magic Mirror” in their version of the lore/story. They took creative liberty on a lot of things in the movie, least of which involves the dialog. Disney simply made their own version of it. Hundreds of sources of “Mirror, mirror” exist in our culture today because of the original story/translation. How can this be? Well, before we dive into the possible explanations, you can save yourself the trouble and understand that in the original Brothers Grimm story (translated into English), it is indeed: There’s even a movie 2012 entitled “Mirror Mirror” staring Julia Roberts.

The mirror’s persona in the Disney adaption is named, “Slave in the Magic Mirror”, hence why the Evil Queen refers to it as the “magic mirror”. There is no credible evidence to support that it has. It has not been changed or edited since its original release. In the 1937 Disney classic, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs the Evil Queen utters the famous line “ Magic mirror, on the wall – who is the fairest one of all?”.
Actually: It’s both “Mirror, mirror, on the wall…” AND “Magic mirror, on the wall.”
