Friday the 13th October marks the second and final instance of this cursed day this year

In 2023, 13 October is the second and final Friday the 13th this year, while 2022 only had to contend with one.Various theories abound as to the alleged “unluckiness” of Friday the 13th, but both Friday and the number 13 have carried negative connotations throughout history.

It’s also been suggested that the superstition comes from an incident that took place on Friday the 13th in 1307, when Philip IV of France arrested hundreds of the Knights Templar.Norse mythology also has its own explanation, with the story “13” concerning a feast attended by 12 gods in Valhalla, which was gatecrashed by Loki, the god of mischief.

In Italy, 13 is actually believed to be a lucky number, which was also the case in ancient Egypt and China.
