40+ Best Friday The 13th Jokes And Puns That Are Scarily Good

According to western culture, Friday the 13th is believed to be a very unlucky day.

'Paraskevidekatriaphobia' is the term used to define the fear of this day. The number 13 is considered an unlucky number in many countries.

According to the Georgian calendar, Friday 13th is the most ill-fated day of the year. The tale originated in Norse mythology when 12 gods were having dinner in Valhalla. Loki, the trickster god, who was not invited, arrived at the supper as the 13th guest. He made Höðr shoot Balder with a mistletoe-tipped arrow. The whole Earth became dark and mourned Balder's death. Since then, the day is considered to be an unlucky day.

According to some people, the fear of Friday 13th is linked with the last supper and has a biblical origin; there were 13 guests at the last supper before Jesus's crucifixion. Other people say it's nothing more than a superstition. Many people believe this day to be so unfortunate that they avoid doing their everyday routines like going to the office and doing business, traveling, driving, and taking flights. Some even avoid getting out of their bed due to the fear caused by this day.

To raise awareness about the number 13 and the hysteria surrounding it, a secret society named 'The Thirteen Club' was founded in 1890. 13 group members would regularly dine on the 13th day of every month in room number 13 and eat a 13-course meal. Before sitting down for dinner, the group members would pass under a ladder which held a banner that stated "Morituri te salutamus," which roughly translates to "those of us who are about to die, salute you." in Latin.
