Not only old people! Many people are afraid of the number 13. That is why, in many hotels, they wont have a 13th floor or a room 13. Also, some people have been known to change their house number from a 13 to a 12a. This phobia is called Triskaidekaphobia!
This is because, back when people believed in witches, when witches met in a group to do their wicked spells and potions, there were always 13 in a group.
Because witches were evil, they were the opposite of good. Everything they did was known as the opposite of what was good. Because Jesus had 12 disciples, they decided to be 13 in number. Over time, 13 became known as an unlucky number.
Hope this helped!
