The
Phobia List
site
sponsors
I started this list in the late 1980's and put it
on the web in 1995.
It's since been adopted and adapted onto many pages since then.
Please don't ask me about curing phobias because I know
little about them. My interest is in the names only.
All the
phobia names on this list have been found in some reference book.
If you're looking for a
phobia name that's not on the list....I'm afraid I don't have
it.
