What is the noun form of superstition?

The word superstition is normally a noun. For instance, in the sentence "Molly has a superstition about black cats," the word is a noun. You could also say "Molly has a superstitious fear of black cats," where "superstitious" is an adjective describing the word fear. The only case I can think of where superstition would be an adjective would be something where you were talking about the Superstition Mountains in Arizona.
