What is the fear of death or dead things called?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Necrophobia. It is the fear of death or dead things. The word "necro" comes from the Greek word for "dead". People with necrophobia may avoid cemeteries, funeral homes, or anything else that reminds them of death. They may also experience anxiety or panic attacks when they are exposed to these things.
The other options are:
- Noctiphobia: fear of the night
- Nyctophobia: fear of the dark
- None of these: There is no phobia specifically for the fear of night or dark.
