Like other cultures, the Cajun’s have their own set of superstitions. The basic American culture has superstitions like If you step on a crack, you will break your mother’s back. Or there are other superstitions like If you see a black cat on Halloween, it brings your bad luck. And also like American’s, many of the Cajun’s do believe in their common superstions.

Two very common superstitions Cajun’s believe in are If you cut a potato in half and rub the juice on a wart and you throw it over your shoulder not looking where it fell, it will definitely get rid of your warts. The second one is To make someone not ever come back to your house, when they leave, throw salt in the shape of a cross as they leave.

This is just some fun information about Cajun’s and their traditional superstitions. Feel free to comment below with any thoughts or questions!
