Death is the most dreadful and fearful part of everyone’s life. All of us want to be away from death. People used to believe that certain incidents will take them closer to death. Here are some interesting and weird superstitions about death.

Hi Valli: What do you mean "People used to believe...." . I still know people who are afraid of death and believe in these superstitions, or, should I say coincidences. Thanks for the post. It's always amusing to see what unrelated events scare people to death. Thanks.
