Spanish superstitions are deeply ingrained in the culture. Many believe that Tuesday the 13th is unlucky, more so than Friday the 13th. Putting a hat on the bed is thought to bring bad luck. The “mal de ojo” (evil eye) concept is prevalent, with various amulets used for protection. Spilling wine is considered good luck and is often done intentionally before important events. Some Spaniards avoid walking under ladders, considering it unlucky.
