Hurmmmm why do people believe in superstitious?? I think, people do have many reasons for being superstitious. For some, superstition is something that was passed down from their parents and their grandparents. The most likely explanation is that it gives a sense of control over the uncontrollable things in life. Some people might not be superstitious and feel that these beliefs are silly, but to those who truly believe in omens, and good or bad luck, following the unspoken rules of behavior is a way of life.
These are some examples of superstitious from different country…..
