// Couldn't find the answer anywhere, but this finally worked for me:
app.post("/login", (req, res) => {
  passport.authenticate("local",
      (err, user, options) => {
        if (user) {
          // If the user exists log him in:
          req.login(user, (error)=>{
            if (error) {
              res.send(error);
            } else {
              console.log("Successfully authenticated");
              // HANDLE SUCCESSFUL LOGIN 
              // e.g. res.redirect("/home")
            };
          });
        } else {
          console.log(options.message); // Prints the reason of the failure
          // HANDLE FAILURE LOGGING IN 
          // e.g. res.redirect("/login"))
          // or
          // res.render("/login", { message: options.message || "custom message" })
        };
  })(req, res)
});
