Take Our Phobias Quiz

With over hundreds of phobias, it's probably no surprise that there is a phobia of phobias: Phobophobia. If you do suffer from a phobia, you can take comfort in the fact that humans aren't the only ones to suffer. Hydrophobia, or fear of water, affects dozens of chemicals.

If you don't suffer from testophobia, test your knowledge of phobia names and their causes in this week's quiz. Our ten questions run the gamut of phobias from the dangerous to the downright bizarre.

Don't be afraid to take the quiz multiple times to get to 100%, but remember your cumulative time is what will affect your position on the leaderboards.

8/10, would have gotten nine if there were any right answer to the harry potter one, I looked up every answer on Google and no four phobias exist.

10 out of 10 first time AND second place?!

How the hell did that happen? I'm scared.

It did take me near 3 and a half minutes, mind.

" I scored 100%, with 10 of 10 correct on The Escapist's Phobias!. Take this quiz [/quizzes/view/145-Phobias] "

(just as proof).

9/10! My etymological skills win the day!

But... wiccaphobia? Seriously?
yup, that's the only one that made me blink. It's a bit of a lame name.

7/10 first try, no google.

Which I guess is pretty good in normal standards... if it was by video game review standards then I failed miserably and should start apologizing for such horrible results.

90%, time 1:30-odd.

I'm still most fond of Anatidaephobia, though. That one phobia that everybody remembers because it's so silly...
