To get in the spirit of Halloween, we compiled the nine oddest phobias we could find. It's hard to believe these people are actually scared of these things.

Chrometophobia

Perhaps the oddest fear of all – chrometophobia, or the fear of money. Who in their right mind is scared of money?

Oenophobia

A glass of Chardonney or Merlot is off limits for those who have oenophobia, or a fear of wines.

Ephebiphobia

Those who suffer from ephebiphobia, a fear of teenagers, should steer clear of arcades and movie theaters.

Somniphobia

Suffering from somniphobia? You have a fear of sleeping. Aren’t you tired?


Medorthophobia

Hard to imagine that some men might actually have medorthophobia, a fear of an erection.

Sophophobia

You won’t be the smartest person in the room if you have sophophobia, or a fear of learning.

Anthrophobia

Check with your significant other to make sure he/she doesn't suffer from anthrophobia, or a fear of flowers.
