Serious question: why do they always look like they are looking right at you? is it that they’re absorbing all the light all around them and the dark spot is just “your” light?

IIRC mantis eyes are a series of small holes/tubes angled in different directions. You can see into the ones that are faced directly towards you down to (I assume) some photoreceptor like our pupils, but the other holes are occluded.
So basically, yeah, kinda. I think.
