Spectrophobia is the
abnormal and persistent fear of ghosts. I
don’t fear ghosts as much as I have respect for them. I won’t lie I do freak out when I encounter
spirits and I encounter them on a regular basis at my work. After a while you learn to just ignore them
and go on with your day. Most mean no
harm, but I’ve encountered a couple that I’m afraid of and if I have an up
close encounter with one I will most definitely develop this phobia. Close encounters with ghosts are the main
cause of this phobia, but it can also be caused by stories and the fear of the
unknown.
A phobia is a strong,
persistent fear of situations, objects, activities or persons. The main symptom is an excessive and
unreasonable desire to avoid the feared subject. Other phobia symptoms include
shortness of breath, irregular heartbeat, sweating, nausea, and an overall
feeling of dread. Phobias are the most
common form of anxiety disorders.

Spectrophobia? Please share your
story. How was it triggered and how does
it affect your life?
