They thought they were invisible, but they forgot to cross their arms in front of them to signal that.
Seriously, though, I think they're reacting to being seen, not seeing what Monica is. Though it could be both.
My guesses as to Wapsivamp powers/restrictions...
1) don't burn in daylight (100%)
2) invisible, and other limits in daylight (75%)
3) will burn in the sunshine Monica can bring (99.9%)
4) in mirrors [!] their visibility is questionable (90%)
5) not affected by symbols of faith (80%, exc. smoking mirrors heh heh heh)
6) not repelled by garlic (35%)
7) are repelled by water or running water (60%)
8) metamorphs, probably to bat and/or smoke (70%)
9) blood drinkers... (65%)
10) ...but actually feed off human energy (85%)
11) hypno-stare (99%, lookit those shiny peepers)
12) need an invitation to enter a human domicile, or bleed from the eyes (100%)
I'd always love to know what enforces that barred-from-the-human-home caveat. It's like magnets, I'm more a Faraday than an Insane Clown Posse.
Which makes me think...
13) They wander the earth 24/7, and have no grave or home to return to (55%)

Also, without Pablo's meta a few weeks back, we wouldn't even know they're vampires yet. We'd be taking bets which one was Justin's werewolf ex.
