It's Friday The 13th, 2015: Are You Superstitious?

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) -- There's not much to dislike about Friday -- except when it falls on the 13th, like it does today.

There is an actual condition called Friggatriskaidekaphobia, known as the fear of Friday the 13th.

This is the first Friday the 13th of the year, and we have two more to look forward to in 2015: March and again in November.

Kinemortophobia is the fear of zombies. After several incidents a few years ago, some feared the zombie apocalypse was inevitable.

We asked CBSNewYork Facebook fans if they were superstitious.

George Worthington said, "Nope, I think black cats are great. I step on every crack I can and go under ladders and a rabbits foot is of no use except to a rabbit."

Marion Raucci Varano said, "Love Friday the 13 and love black kittens (cats)."

Do you have a fear or superstition, like a fear of heights, spiders or perhaps zombies?  Share it on out Facebook page.
