Looking for it, this caught my eye:
Casting call for black cats for "The Black Cat" segment in Tales of Terror.
Hilarious!

That's good detective work from the Grimm guy. He gives me the creeps a bit with his macabre wanderings but I'm pleased he likes black cats.
Over the years, I got the impression that black cats are somehow more easygoing.
That's certainly not a scientifically reliable statistic, but even the terror-tomcat is actually just funny
and not malicious.

I agree. They don't make the black cat an object of terror in this movie because I suppose they wanted a lighter episode amongst the horror. Actually black cats are supposed to be lucky where I live.
That's interesting.
Where do you live? (country/state)
Here it depends, how the black cat crosses your path.
"Schwarze Katze von links nach rechts, bringt was schlecht's".

(Black cat from left to right, brings something bad.)
"Schwarze Katze von rechts nach links, bringt's."
️
(Black cat from right to left, brings it…brings something good).
Complete nonsense, but our maternal grandma believed in it. facepalm
Before I make more fun of our superstitious grandma:
I still throw some salt behind me, whenever someone spills salt. 🧂
That breaks the spell of spilling salt, which is supposed to bring bad luck. -

I don't know if people still keep up your grandma's superstition about spilt salt here but I have heard that one. I live in Norfolk, England and you'd be surprised how the cat sayings are still used. I've even hear young parents telling their children now. I think it's nice as children love cats.

A Night of Terror begins
Black Cat Horror
The Chinese horror story
ends with a cliffhanger.
Actually it's only the terror-tomcat, who asks for slaps.
And it's even not wolf's hour here!
