Fear of Heights is Acrophobia. (this one I have if Im Harnessed and climbing stuff, But not if im getting Paper Towels chucked at me to stack on a 3-4 metre or so fall from where i am standing.)
The fear of Clowns is Coulrophobia.
The fear of the number thirteen is Triskaidekaphobia.

None of these I have but the one I said and partially Coulrophobia but only evil clowns.
 
I just read an old Guiness Book of Records and there was a life size picture of spiders and I was a little freaked out so I guess we all have a little fear involving spiders.

I can never get to sleep when a spider is in the corner of my room because I have to keep looking at it and then I get scared when it moves because I could never sleep knowing that it could be crawling around on me through the night (I am not talking about little ones because we get huge ones up here.)
 
i have moronphobia

its different though. in this case, phobia means hatred. so, to disect the word, I HATE MORONS

I don't know if I mentioned it already but I have Altophobia- Fear of heights, Its only bad when i'm up high and i'm not fully restrained, like rock climbing, but otherwise i'm fine but I have suffered from vertigo before.
 
Loopaslipaphobia - The fear of being chased around your kitchen table by timberwolves, wearing brand new socks, on a newly waxed floor
 
I think that one was made up, just a little. A made up one I thought was leocularphobia, which is the fear of seeing. Would you kill yourself or something if you were afraid of your eyes or seeing things? You'd poke your eyes out anyway. And what would happen if you were afraid of water? What are you going to do then? Stupid phobias. Glad I don't have them.....I think.
 
I have a phobia of spiders. BIG TIME!!! My friends tried to get me over being scared of spiders so they had me watch some movies like arachnophobia. I was so scared I started to cry. Everyone thought it was funny.

IT WASN'T!
 
I just laughed a little at your phobia... even though I share it... I don't cry over spiders... I kill the bastards
 
I'm not afraid of them but I can't bring myself to kill one. Mostly because I feel bad for them. They do eat other annoying insects after.

Although it is freaky when the buggers crawl on your skin and fall on you.
 
have you ever seen that movie? oh my gosh it was so freeken scary. I almost pissed myself when the I watched the shower part. you have to watch the movie to know what I'm talking about.

but I am really scared of them I will kill the really small ones but if they are bigger then about a half a inch I will make someone else kill it for me. the most scary spider is the daddy long leg or those big black spiders. they scare me sooooooo badly. I hate spiders.

of corse they do GREAT stuff for the world like getting rid of the bad bugs for us but still they bite people.

when ever my dad and I see a spider, I tell him to kill it and do you know what he says to me? "oh it doesn't eat more then 4 or 5 pounds"

what they heck!
 
I found something out today...spiders do not rule. I was going through all this stuff near the corner of my room and there were about 10 of those little spiders that creep everyone out. I smashed them into the ground but that's not a nice thought when you think about how big their families are. I guess I am scared of spiders after all, but I guess everyone (except weirdos) are as well.
 
I have ocd....i think. I need to even things out persay. So if someone moves there head up i move mine down. Ya i know thats not a phobia but w/e.

Im afraid of bees, but then again i have to be since im alergic.
