A genuine word, combing triskaidekaphobia (fear of the number 13), with Frigga, a Germanic goddess who gives her name to Friday, to form a word meaning 'fear of Friday the 13th'.
Magnificent, huh?
I'd love to add it to my list of neuroses, but there are two Friday the 13ths still to come this year, and two entire days of fear sounds like a lot of hard work.

3 in one year? That can't be very common?
I'm not afraid of the number 13, but the 666.667 club is one of my favourite albums.
And frankly, as long as it's Friday, I don't give a fuck what date the Tamplars got arrested, or how many witches make up a coven.
Darren - I dunno, but apparently there's at least two every year so three probably isn't that unusual.
CLC - never heard of that album, who's it by?
It's a french rock (or should I say the french rock group) Noir Désir.

Check out the song Ernestine. I don't think you need to speak french to get it.
I was born on Friday the 13th. It's widely celebrated in the lower levels of hell, even on Thursdays.
