The necrophobia or thanatophobia is the phobia or fear of death or dead things .. Both terms are used alternatively, thanatophobia is more specific: including but not limited to, the fear of death itself. Necrophobia is the fear of death, dead things (eg, corpses) as well as certain things associated with death (eg, coffins). The term is derived from the Greek necros (cadaver) and phobos (fear). Those who suffer from this condition can not clearly explain the creepy feeling experienced when facing a mummy or a corpse.
