There are a lot of phobia. People tell different confusing names and you wonder if there is such thing like ..so and so..phobia.

Well, this is a very comprehensive list of phobia (more than 530 !!)prepared by Fredd Culbertson and arranged alphabetically.

It is amazing how much differently a person can feel fear. We all fear sometime of something and worst of all, most of the fears we fell in day-to-day life don’t fall into any of the category given in the huge list.

Let me list some of the fears:

Ablutophobia- Fear of washing or bathing.
Acarophobia- Fear of itching or of the insects that cause itching.
Acerophobia- Fear of sourness.
Achluophobia- Fear of darkness.
Acousticophobia- Fear of noise.
Acrophobia- Fear of heights…….

and it goes on and on……
