Happy Friday the 13th - any stories?
What is the story behind the superstition that surrounds Friday the 13th? Why are people scared to do things, they would normally never do on Friday, the 13th?
There is even a phobia named after Friday, the 13th: Parakevidekatriaphobia, which is derived from three Greek words:
Parakevi = Friday
Dekatria = 13th
Phobia = Fear
I am linking to a webpage with a lot of different thoughts about Friday, the 13th.
But tell me, have you any special habits related to Friday, the 13th? Anything special ever happened to you?
