My Mum suffered from tristadekaphobia (a fear of the number 13) but I think she suffered from friggatriskaidekaphobia which is a fear of Friday the 13th. She absolutely hated that day! She always said that on Friday the 13th she should never, ever get out of bed. I honestly don't see what all the fuss is about.I know that some people take the fear of 13 really seriously. One house we lived in when I was a teenager was numbered 11A but in reality it was really supposed to be number 13. I guess whoever built the house had tristadekaphobia.

Do you have a fear of the number 13 or of Friday the 13th?
Didn't even notice it was Friday 13th, and here it is, Saturday already!
