Yes, the no-13th floor buildings still exist. I was in - let me think - I think it was Cleveland in 2003 and there was no 13th floor. There was no 12th floor either, because it was a 6-storey building! I'm kidding of course. There was no 13th but a 14th floor, a 15th and so on. I was on holiday with a big group and we were scattered over many floors, calling each other from one room to the other. On the ninth floor they had kept the room number 911.... Dangerous! And it wasn't even a Friday 13th!
Tonight I will go to an event that happens every year here in Brussels. It's called the BIFFF (Brussels International Festival Of Fantastic Film -
www.bifff.org). It lasts several days and one day they always have a party called "Bal des Vampires" - vampire's ball. I'm not into horror/gore movies at all, but with a friend we have been volunteering every year for the "Bal des Vampires". In order to access/participate, you have to wear make-up - and I mean horror/gore/fantastic make-up. So my friend and I (and others) will put make-up on people's faces all night! It's fun! You need a lot of imagination and it's exhausting! But it's fun!
That's what I will do on Friday the 13th!
