Triskaidekaphobia

From the word to the meaning, I found this hilarious to see as an actual phobia. I don't know anyone who has it, much less anyone who can pronounce it. This is a fear of the number 13. This number is considered a bad omen as it is the witch's number. While most have a supersition about the number, few have a full phobia of it.

People with this phobia make it hard to discuss math, play billiards, and even read books for fear of seeing or hearing the number 13. Imagine watching someone read a book, they turn to the page numbered 13.... They scream and drop the book. When they tell you what is wrong, you'd probably start laughing.
