If people truly believe in the superstistion it can really damaged their mental well being if they are confronted with the belief...like if they see a black cat or end up walking under a laddeer.

There's also the belief that the dead will come back and harm the living, so those that believ this use a lot of time and energy trying to keep their dead ancestors appeased.
