I think that a black cat being bad luck is just stereotypical. I know people who have black cats as pets and they're not breaking their neck everytime they pet the cat.

For Halloween, they ban the adoption of black cats for their own safety. Very sick people adopt them and torture them as part of their "celebrations."
Black cats aren't bad luck--I think they're beautiful and used to live with one before he passed away. He lived a long and happy life, so I consider him to be very lucky :)
PS- If you already have a black cat, KEEP HIM OR HER INSIDE FOR HALLOWEEN. Better yet, keep all of your animals inside with you for Halloween--I doubt the sickest people would stop at a black cat.

People torture black cats at halloween that is why and they say if you have one [which I do] Miss Kitty is anything but bad luck.
She got the mice out of the garage. Which here if you have mice you have snakes. Which are pit vipers, rattlesnakes to coral.
I have an inside cat that is black and white. But this black cat showed up one day hungry and I feed her and that was it she was home. I took 6 months of feeding before I could touch her.
She was so scared. But there are crazy people out there who steal black cats to kill for halloween. Even adopting them to kill.
The bad luck is for the cat.

My black kitty wasn't bad luck.. but just for giggles we named him Monster Kitty.... he was one of the sweetest kitties anyone could ever meet & definately not bad luck
Whoever those idiots are that are banning adoption of black cats should be proven wrong!!! I say put up signs to honor a black cat for Halloween by adopting one

Yes, It is true they do not allow black or white kittens to be adopted during this month. NO it is not true it is because of bad luck. Yes it is true that people will torture these lil guys for rituals on halloween and that is why they dont allow adoptions.

Don't worry! IT'S NOT TRUE! So don't think that you have to get rid of your pretty kitty just for some silly Halloween saying. IT IS NOT BAD LUCK!!!
