Found this pretty exhaustive list of fears earlier. Some of the latin roots make sense here, but I'm thinking somebody was really trying to stretch a few: scatophobia? really?
Here's a few I thought were pretty awesome or just downright out there. Really though, the whole list is just littered with 'em.
Alliumphobia- Fear of garlic.
Apotemnophobia- Fear of persons with amputations.
Equinophobia- Fear of horses.
Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia- Fear of the number 666.
Phallophobia- Fear of a penis, esp erect. vs. Medomalacuphobia- Fear of losing an erection.
Scatophobia- Fear of fecal matter.
