I cheated, wofa, but:
Apotemnophobia- Fear of persons with amputations.
Whoa--I found a name for something I suffer from: Automatonophobia- Fear of ventriloquist's dummies, animatronic creatures, wax statues - anything that falsly represents a sentient being.
Things like that--clowns, robot-looking things, whatever--have always scared me; still do, though not to the point of panic. That's why I don't like monkeys, apes, etc. (Hi, SS) They're so close to being human, it unnerves me. I could not stand to watch Howdy Doody when I was a kid. Those things just...give me the creeps.
