Today is Friday the 13th, so you already know what that means!! There are a bunch of superstitions about today and all Friday the 13ths in general, but where exactly do they come from? Why are people so worried/scared of Friday the 13th? Could it be because of the movies and people who decide to dress as Jason to scare people? Is it because 13 is an “unlucky number” and Friday is known to be an “unlucky day” so they two of them combined is just an overload of unlucky? According to a recent study 17-20 million people fear Friday the 13th. Hit the jump to uncover the truth behind Paraskevidekatriaphobics, the fear of Friday the 13th! @Julie1205
