The number of witches in a coven is actually 9 or 12... The 13th was the master they chose to serve. I've never thought Friday the 13th was unlucky. In fact, it usually brings me good luck, as does the number 13. As for Friday usually being a good day for me, too, I think it's because I've come to associate it with the Sabbath. I'll gladly work on Sundays, but my boss has to fight to get me to come in on Fridays. Then again, I'm pagan, and most people believe pagan=witch. ...Morons. We just happen to have the same Sabbath and a few ideals.
Do you really think the kind of morons who thought that dunking people was a good idea actually bothered to make the differentiation between witches and master? And to their minds, pagan probably did = witch.
Even if that never stopped them from hijacking dates.
