I suppose "Zemmiphobia- Fear of the great mole rat" would also include democRATS.

Some are fearful of their arms hanging over the side of their beds; others are fearful of clowns. There are probably phobia words to describe these two fears as well.

Apparently there are quite a lot of people who are truly frightened of clowns. Wonder why.

Coulrophobia is the fear of clowns.

I guess people are scared of them the same way I'm scared of ventriloquist's dummies. It's just sort of something that happens.

Seeing "the Thing" wouldn't exactly help, either...

I don't know what the name is for the fear of arms hanging over the side of beds.

The clostest thing is Clinophobia, fear of beds or going to bed. But arms, no can do. Sorry. : (
