I never heard any particular case where it could be proven to have brought luck, but if people believe in it, it may have some psychological effect. If you want to try it, Hang it in a "U" shape to "catch" the luck--hanging it upside down is supposed to let the luck spill out. And be sure to nail it well--if you come through the door and it lands on your head, that CAN'T be good luck!

Some people do believe that a horseshoe will bring them luck. When applying to the outside of your house or barn, it is placed upside down. So that it looks like a U. This is so the luck never runs out.

I always heard over the door and open end at the top. Catch all the luck in the room and prevent it from falling out.

I've been told that you can hang it above or on the door. Just as long you hang it like a "U". That way none of your luck will run out.
