My chilean relatives are very superstitious..from the walking under ladder thing to throwing salt over thier left shoulder..chanting something while spit is flying out of thier gummy mouths.
Maori customs..do not reply to a hooting owl..
always toot your horn as you pass a cemetary..
never continue your long distant journey if you approach half a rainbow..
never turn your back to the sea..
a menstrating woman must never swim as it will contaminate the waters.
never leave a cemetary without washing your hands/face or any part of your skin that has been exposed.
If you drop something into a coffin..it stays there.
never take photos of the living beside a headstone.
never take pics of a body in the coffin.
(ironically..alot of white ppl do the 2 above)
never drop bury pics of the lving with the dead.
never look at yourself in the mirror after midnight till dawn.
never whistle in the house after dark..or cut your hair.

Wow,i havn't heard of many of these,some of them are pretty creepy.The throwing of salt over the shoulder is one i do myself too,it wards off the devil so i'm told,also i've just had lunch(Steak&pasta)and when i had finished i put my Knife and fork down in such a way that they were crossing,for this i received a sharp dressing down off my better half as this too is supposed to bring bad fortune.
