Yes. Many superstitious people have treated any Friday the 13th as a bad luck day. I have heard of some who would not even get out of bed.
People with such fears are said to have triskaidekaphobia.

The fear of Friday the 13th is called paraskavedekatriaphobia. Wow, whatta word.
Yes, I've heard of it all my life. Used to bother me a tad, but doesn't anymore.
Thirteen is a much maligned number. I've heard that some buildings don't have a thirteenth floor.
". In some countries, the number 13 is considered unlucky and building owners will sometimes purposefully omit a floor so numbered."
