(Noun) The striking fear that enters one’s heart when gazing into the lifeless eyes of a taxidermy animal, such as the deer head at Cracker Barrel.
I have had taxidermaphobia since I was a child and encountered two deer heads at the antique store displayed at my eye level. I was very concerned that they were running around in heaven without there heads and cried aloud.
