These things are superstitions???
Just kidding. Anyway, I have heard of/experienced the hag/ ha'nt thing (where a hag's jumped you & that's why you can't move). I've since learned that it poor circulation, or your mind wakes up before your body (or so they say, but if I ever catch that durn hag...)! They say that you should put salt on your doorstep to catch the hag and pepper to burn her. Salt in a jar will trap her. Ok, Ok...
I always thought the red sauce/gravy thing was really nasty... I'll leave it at that.
Here's one: if a bird finds one/some of your hairs & uses it to help make their nest, you'll loose your mind (weaves don't count).
