Ever wondered why Friday the 13th is considered unlucky? This superstition has deep historical roots. The fear of 13, known as triskaidekaphobia, dates back to Norse mythology, where Loki was the uninvited 13th guest causing chaos. In Christianity, the Last Supper had 13 attendees, with Judas as the betrayer. The number 13 and Fridays were considered unlucky separately, but their combination became infamous after the arrest of the Knights Templar on Friday, October 13, 1307. This day has since become linked to misfortune. Whether you're superstitious or not, it's fascinating to see how history shapes our beliefs.
