I don't believe in superstitions, but I know our local superstitions pretty well because my grandmother was extremely superstitious. She told me which things to avoid, but I don't really believe that those things bring bad luck.

Hi and welcome to mylot.
I looked up the definition of superstition and here's what I found:
'a widely held but unjustified belief in supernatural causation leading to certain consequences of an action or event, or a practice based on such a belief'
So, it may be that many people believe something, but it is not based on facts or evidence.
It is easy to fall into such thinking because a lot of people assimilate the concepts they grew up with.
Even so called educated people believe things or behave in a way that betrays belief in things that are not based on reason.
