For me it would be things with a bunch of holes in them and spider webs.

#1

I don't know if it's unusual or not but I get spooked in open water. The ocean definitely but even lakes. Lakes are scarier I think because of tree limbs sticking out of the water always freaks me out.

Globophobia, the fear of balloons.
Lots of people are scared of them popping, but it’s not just that for me. I see a balloon and I kind of freak out, and I can’t blow them up.

Ladders. Not superstition but legit fear of even getting on a step stool some days. The sensation of falling I fear more than heights but those make me nervous. June bugs. Basements.

Okay.....This is really weird and irrational but I have an intense fear of the sound of didgeridoos ( An Aboriginal Australian popular instrument) I don’t know why but it really creeps me out.....yes I’m Australian!

I'm afraid of bags of bird seed. When I was a kid, I put my hand into one to fill the bird feeder, and instead touched a dead mouse that had gotten inside. We still always feed the birds, but the fear of the closed bags that could have a dead mouse inside hasn't left me.

Escalators! And those moving walkways that go diagonally. I am fine with the ones that are horizontal though and I am fine with ramps and elevators of any kind. But escalators and moving walkways that are at the same angle as escalators I dislike. And it is always at the same height each time. It's like cool, cool, cool, cool, cool WTF!
