In Appalachian folklore, a falling broom is a common omen indicating that company—often unexpected—will soon arrive. It is also considered a sign of bad luck, bad fortune, or a warning to be cautious, sometimes signaling unwanted visitors or impending misfortune.

Key Appalachian Broom Superstitions:

Company Arriving: A broom falling across a doorway is a traditional sign of a visitor.

Unwanted Visitors: Placing a broom upside down behind a door is used to get rid of, or prevent, unwelcome guests.

Bad Luck/Misfortune: If a broom falls for no reason, it is believed to bring bad luck.

Moving House: Never bring an old broom into a new home, as it brings bad luck with it; instead, break and burn it.

Love and Marriage: If a woman sweeps over her own feet, or allows someone else to, she may never marry (or it will bring bad luck).

Broken Handle: Breaking a broom handle is thought to cause a broken heart.
