In Naples, Italy, there’s a peculiar tradition surrounding the lottery. For centuries, locals have turned to their dreams to figure out what numbers to play — the belief is that dead family members and friends send encrypted messages with the winning lottery tickets. So, for every image or scenario in a dream — there’s a number associated with it. And as The World’s Lucía Benavides reports, this tradition is reflective of Neapolitans’ quotidian relationship with the spirit world.
