Friday the thirteenth
Unlucky calendar day
Friday the thirteenth is a date considered unlucky in Western superstition—when the thirteenth day of a month falls on a Friday.
The superstition combines longstanding unease about the number thirteen with Friday's association with bad luck.
Some people avoid travel or major decisions on these dates: I'm not signing the contract on Friday the thirteenth.
