I am typically not a superstitious person but ever since I learned about them as a child I found myself actually kind of actracted to the mythes and lores. Maybe amused or entertained by them is a better way to describe it. The traditional superstitions I think are rather quirky and fun and have often find them referenced in the old postcards I collect. The imagery of people freeking out over a black cat crossing their path or throwing salt over their shoulder would make a rather fun theme for a postcard collection.
