I always thought it was a quantum effect: light is passing through the vampire and bouncing on it at the same time and it's only when you observe its predicted path that you'll project it in a defined state.

But, from your point of view, light "knew" from the beginning that it had to pass through the vampire or bounce on it.

I don't think the light "knew" from the beginning. The light started in a state of superposition, right? Both unholy and holy. Once it hits the vampire, only the unholy light is reflected, acting like a sort of filter similar to a polarizing lens.
