Every society throughout human history has had some level of superstition and similar too, just like the west thinks of Friday 13th . if I am remembering what my x wife said when we were in an elevator in Japan, I noticed the number 4 button was not there.
And according wikipedia, the number 4 is pronounced "shi" but the word "shi" meaning "death", is also pronounced "shi". So other numbers are considered bad luck besides 13.
