Most common phobias — the full ranked list

The complete ranking of most common phobias, in order, with what the ranking counts and how firm the figures behind it are. Free reference, no sign-up — and the guessing game that plays the same list.

What people report fearing most. Spiders kill almost nobody and top every survey; cars kill over a million people a year and appear on none of them.

No single authoritative source exists for this one. Estimates differ, sometimes widely, so read the order as an argument rather than a fact.
