Weird Phobias My Neighbors Actually Have.
Yesterday, something strange happened with me.
My neighbors were casually talking to each other. Then they started discussing their fears — like different kinds of phobias. One by one, they were sharing what things they feel scared of, even if those fears sounded a little unusual.
It Started With Gossip… and Ended in Weird Phobias.
One aunt said that she is afraid of lifts, so she always uses the stairs.
Another aunt said that she feels very uncomfortable when the car AC is on, and it makes her uneasy.
Then there was a girl of my age who is very scared of firecrackers. She said that whenever people start bursting crackers, she runs away from that place. She even hides somewhere far and only comes out when the crackers stop.
But one story really surprised me. There is an old granny who is very afraid of darkness and ghosts. One night at around 2 a.m., she had to go to her neighbor’s house for some work.
It was very dark, and she got so scared thinking about ghosts in the dark that she became sick for eight days.
In the same way, every lady sitting there was sharing her strange fears and phobias.
One lady said that in her childhood, she was very scared of hibiscus flowers. Another said that she used to be afraid of cotton when she was young. Everyone had something unusual to share about their fears.
You know, there are so many strange types of phobias in this world. We can’t even imagine that people can actually be afraid of such things.
But I had nothing to share.
While everyone was talking, I kept thinking about what I am afraid of, but nothing came to my mind. I tried a lot to remember if I have any phobia, but I just couldn’t think of anything.
Damn… I don’t even know what I am scared of, (LOL).
Do you know anyone who has such strange and unusual phobias? Like, I was just thinking about it the other day… it’s kind of surprising how many different fears people can actually have.
