The fear of Friday the 13th is called paraskevidekatriaphobia, a word derived from the concatenation of the Greek words Paraskeví (Παρασκευή) (meaning Friday), and dekatreís (δεκατρείς) (meaning thirteen), attached to phobía (φοβία) (meaning fear).
But if I'm going to be the awesome Greek guy... maybe I should learn to speak Greek? Cause I sure as hell can't come close to pronouncing that word. Anyhow, I love useless knowledge like this (thank you Wikipedia... I LOVE you). I think I'll start a new posting section... Today's Random Wikipedia Fact... or something like that.
