Well, when twelve people involved in a singular event all end up dying in less than seven years, that starts to transcend the realm of simple "luck", in my experience. Probability and coincidence just can't account for things like that.

Mummies don't get enough modern takes outside of The Mummy series (which are more action oriented), so we really don't know what the current idea of "scary" would be in the sense of them. Back then, all the mummy tropes were probably considered utterly terrifying - to quote Lisa Simpson, " Maybe people were easier to scare back then."
Until someone actually tries to make a modern, scary piece of fiction with a mummy, they probably won't ever be considered scary. Dr. Who has the wussiest monsters of pretty much any piece of fiction. It's about half of the reason why it bores me so much.
