The superstition surrounding the number 13 has roots in various cultural and historical contexts. One prominent theory links it to the Last Supper, where Judas, the apostle who betrayed Jesus, was the 13th guest. Additionally, in Norse mythology, a story recounts how Loki, the trickster god, was the 13th guest at a banquet, leading to chaos. This number's negative connotations have since permeated many cultures, leading to widespread avoidance of it in various aspects of life, including buildings and events.
