Top 10 Most Common Superstitions

VOICE OVER: Rebecca Brayton

Believe them or not, these old wives' tales are enduring. Whether it's a good luck charm, a refusal to walk near black cats or a fear of Friday the 13th, it's a superstition. Some think they're silly, while others swear by them; either way, some have been around for centuries so they're not going anywhere. In this video, http://www.WatchMojo.com counts down our picks for the top 10 superstitions. For this list, we're sticking to more general superstitions, and staying away from more specifically themed ones like sports, wedding, or theatre-based stories.
