My husband said he absolutely is not, although he won't do "Bloody Mary" in the bathroom. Has anyone? If you are, what is it?

Not at all. Superstitions usually come from biblical times when no one knew any better.

I am a bit superstitious but not when it comes to Bloody Mary. Thats just a silly game kids play. But I believe in the symbology of certain things. Some common superstitions....
Bad Luck
Walking under ladders
Black cats
Breaking mirrors
Open umbrellas inside
Stepping on cracks in pavement
Good Luck
Rabbit feet
Blowing a kiss
Cricket in the house
Clothes worn inside-out
Crossing finger
Other
Biting tongue while eating = you've told a lie
Lighting a candle = good health
Burying a coin in a purse during full moon = wealth
A few more....

I believe in ghosts, but I dont believe my mom will suddenly fall over from a fractured spine if I step on a crack on the sidewalk.
