I have a new phobia of possums. My mom accidentally ran one over with her car. I looked at the face and SCREAMED!!!! I then started crying. It looked like a combination of a super furry cat and the joker from Batman!!! I'm not really sure what it is called but now I can't stand possums!!!

I am afraid of taxidermy animals, Im not sure why but every time i see any kind off animal stuffed and mounted a freeze up, and the room goes black. I cant not go into sporting goods stores. And some restaurants. I am incredibly embarrassed of my phobia and I dont share it with many people.

I have an irrational fear of spiders, which isn't very uncommon, but mine is pretty severe. I am terrified of any and all spiders, even very small ones. I cannot bring myself to kill them. If I spot one in a room of my house I will flee and refuse to return there until someone else goes and checks and gives me the "all clear". I cannot bear even a PICTURE of a spider; if I see one on television or in a book it gives me the shivers.

i have a massive phobia of peacock, peacock feathers. i can't go to places where there are peacocks. everytime when i go somewhere my eyes only search if there are any peacock feathers. i become unconscious if somone tries to show me feather, i also start crying. i dont tell anyone about this phobia as people used to laugh at me. i am just fed of it, and i just wish i could overcome it.

When I was about five my friend told me that wolves were waiting under my bed to attack me. Ever since then for the longest time I would run and dive into my bed so I didnt walk near the underneath of my bed. It soon moved to being afraid that wolves were anywhere it was dark, my bathroom, closets, garages, etc. I bascially sent half my younger running from imaginary wolves.

I am utterly terrified of sloths.
Yes, as in, that really slow moving animal that gets moss growing in it's fur.
I can't even look at pictures of them (well, the full-grown ones, anyway. The babies, while they creep me out, are far less scary to me).
I'm not even sure what it is about them that bothers me, but no, it has nothing to do with those big ol' claws.
They're just utterly menacing to me.

Hello, my name is Michael and I'm a boviphobic. Yep, that's right, I'm deathly afraid of COWS! I can't go anywhere near them or I start to shiver and shake. I get nervous when I drive through areas where there are dairy farms and I can't ever go to a county or state fair because they may be there. I am not really sure where this stems from, but I know it's a definite ingrown fear. I know they are stupid creatures that wouldn't know how to hurt a person, but that doesn't matter to me. I now live in Spain, where they fight bulls. I have not brought myself to go to a bullfight yet because I think that would be my worst fear: having to run from and fight with a nasty cow.

I have a few phobia's actually, but most are common, like spiders, closed in windowless places, storms, but one that is rather strange is, I am petrified of animatronic things. I guess it started when I was about 14 or 15 with the "big mouth billy bass" My mom showed it to me and when it "came to life" when she moved her hand in front of it, I freaked out. I don't like those santa clauses in stores, that come to life when you walk past them or anything like that. To this day I'm still scared of them. But i guess spiders still trump that. HATE those evil creepy little things. lol

I am 26 years old and STILL have a moth phobia. I can't stand the thought of the powder and the furriness of their wings coming anywhere near me. Plus they are unpredictable, and I swear they sense my fear! If one flies into a room, my instinct is to run - which is very embarrasing when you are in a restaurant or at an awards function! I can't sleep if there is one in my room and I once missed a morning's worth of lectures because there was one on the floor in the hallway outside my varsity residence room. I was too terrified to step over it so I stayed in my room until a friend came to visit and I got her to take it outside...

I have an extreme fear of peacocks, peahens as well as the albino ones. I have no idea what triggered my fear of peacocks but is mildly comforted that I am not the only person in the world with such a phobia. When I am stressed out, I would have nightmares of being surrounded by peacocks. I can't go to places without first asking if there are peacocks around.

I hate moving furniture. I always feel like there's going to be an earwig or cockroach that crawls out from underneath some crevice onto my hand.

Often, when I enter an empty room or garage, I'll feel like there is a bug watching me. And most of the time, I'll start scanning the room frantically--corners, walls, ceilings, crevices, etc. And then it's almost like a self-fulfilling prophecy because I almost always find a bug somewhere in the room.
Score:
I'm fine with one, two, or three ants. But whenever I see a swarm of those little bugs--any little bugs, in fact--I get a tingle down my spine and temporarily freeze. Just the image of a collection of tiny little dots crawling around is horrible. The worst is when you see one ant, then two... and suddenly you discover a whole swarm about you. eeep.

I have an extreme phobia of birds, and particularly peacocks. It's quite hard to even write the word peacock - gives me the shivers!
A funny (or not so funny if you're me!) story - it stems from when I was very little and my parents showed me a picture of a small girl feeding a peacock (with it's tail feathers up, so pretty huge compared to the girl) out of the palm of her hand. And they thought it would be funny to tell me that the peacock was eating the girl. Thanks Mum, thanks Dad. :P

One time I went on a self guided tour with my mother at an old cowboy ranch. At the ranch they had about 36 peacocks and peahens. After a while my mother needed to go to the bathroom, which just happened to be where all the peacocks were 'hanging out.' While my mother was in the bathroom I remembered I had a banana and I took it out and started eating it. Then, the peacocks started making their way toward me, slowly at first, until they were chasing me and pecking at me. I was scared silly and I ran into the men's bathroom, me being a girl it was quite embarassing, it was the only thing close to me and I called my mother from inside of the bathroom listening to the peacocks scratching the door. We had to get an employee to come and help. Ever since I am scared of peacocks.
