The fear of Friday the 13th is called friggatriskaidekaphobia (Frigga being the name of the Norse goddess for whom "Friday" is named and triskaidekaphobia meaning fear of the number thirteen),

Got any superstitions ?

No superstitions, but "suspicion" about people who know this stuff! Just kidding. I'll bet you are great at trivial pursuit!
Love your photo by the way.

Normally there is only 2 Friday 13 a year. This year there will be 3 and they are 13 weeks apart. Now those with friggatriskaidekaphobia will really have something to fear.
