(Before It's News)

There are lots of wives tales and some of them will completely freak you out just because they are totally spooky. I can remember my mom sometimes telling me spooky wives tales around Halloween time. Do you? Ever wondered why some people might jump on you if you open up the umbrella inside? That’s just one of the many wives tales but maybe not as scary as these 10 Freaky Wives Tales That Might Make You Think Twice.

 

10. Mirrors

People have found mirrors to be very fascinating for thousands of years. It is due to this fascination that there’s a lot of old wives tales that involve mirrors. One of the many wives tales about mirrors is when a mirror suddenly falls down in your home and instantly breaks and shatters without anyone touching it then that means someone in your home will be dying soon. Mirror, Mirror on the wall is someone going to die in my home soon?

 

9. Umbrellas

I already told you one wives tale about umbrellas. However, there is another scarier wives tale about them that many might not know and I think its scarier then opening the umbrella inside. Did you know that if you ever dropped an umbrella on your floor that it means someone will be murdered in your home? Maybe it’s a good idea to just put the umbrella near your door and open it up fast outside your home so this way you won’t drop it in your home or open it inside by accident.

 

8. Thirteen people at the dinner table

There is a lot of superstition around the number thirteen. When you’re having guests over be sure to make sure never to put 13 of them together at the dinner table. The reason why is because if you do then one of them could die. You don’t know which one might die and it could end up even being yourself. If you don’t want to risk anyone dying then it’s best to not put 13 people together at the dinner table. I know that I’ll never do this.

 

7. Never spill the pepper or you might argue with your best friend!

Spilling pepper can be a very bad sign and most people don’t even know this one. If you spill the pepper at the table then that means you will have a very serious fight or argument with one of your best friends. In order to prevent that from happening, don’t spill your pepper or you might end up regretting it. If this does happen then it’s up to you try and apologize and get things right with them. I hope that this never happens to me and hopefully since I don’t like pepper it won’t happen.

 

6. Head Injuries

For centuries, it was believed hat people who have sustained a head injury – specifically one that led to a loss of consciousness – should not be sleeping, when in reality, sometimes a nap or a good night’s rest will make things all right. What the experts do continue to agree on is that the person should be checked on frequently to make sure they remain awake and their condition is becoming worse.
