If you have 13 letters in your name, you will have the devil's luck . Jack the Ripper, Charles Manson, Jeffrey Dahmer, Theodore Bundy and Albert De Salvo all have 13 letters in their names.

KNOCKING ON WOOD   
    
When a person today expresses a hopeful prediction and superstitiously knocks wood, Traditionally the wood should only be oak.

And, as often as not, people say the words "Knock on wood" but make no attempt to perform the actual knocking ritual.

this is such a cool game.i was initially scared about the 13 letter name wala post 😲and miscalculated my name too.thankfully my name has 12 letters.πŸ˜†
 
anyway-i will keep adding more.
for now one should't cut nails in the evening/night.
Breaking of glass is inauspicious.
If rice spills on your bed or even one or two grains you will get scared in your sleep.
your bed should never be directly visible from your front door/main door.brings really bad luck according to feng shui.

Bad Luck

  • A bat flying into the house
  • An owl hooting 3 times
  • 3 butterflies together
  • Hearing a rooster crow at night
  • Getting out of bed left foot first
  • A picture falling
  • Folklorists claim that there is a superstitious belief that opening an umbrella indoors augurs misfortune!!

Reverse your luck by turning three times counter clockwise.....

Candle

  • If a candle lighted as part of a ceremony blows out, it is a sign that evil spirits are nearby.

--------------

Cemetery

  • You must hold your breath while going past a cemetery or you will breathe in the spirit of someone who has recently died.
