The Fear of Dolls


Pediophobia, also known as the fear of dolls, is a relatively common kind of phobia.

It is an anxiety that can be associated with a range of dolls from old-fashioned china dolls and porcelain dolls to dolls that talk and move.

A person with pediophobia would usually hide any dolls they encounter or refuse to go near them.

If they would get near a doll they might feel embarrassment to their reaction, trembling, an elevated heart rate, inability to speak or think clearly, panic, dread, breathlessness, crying, and nausea.

In worse cases an individual would have a loss of control or anger, heart palpitations, a sensation of detachment from reality, or a full-blown anxiety attack.
