There is a myth that when Christianity came and the Norse Gods were cast out, Freya was declared a witch. She was believed to meet with twelve other witches, making a total or 13, on the day named after her, Friday. This meant the number 13 coinciding with the day Friday is considered to be something to be superstitious about.
