Number 2. Curing Disease, by the touch of a dead mans hand...

  It is a very old superstitions that if you touched the hand of a dead man, especially a man who had been murdered or committed suicide; you would be healed of all diseases!
Back in the time where people were executed, people would pay the undertaker to take the hand of the dead. If anyone was hanged from a tree, in the night people would go to touch the hand...
This superstition comes from no logic and definitely doesn't work... It's a bit creepy too.
