Similar to Catoptrophobia (Cat-ope-tro-phobia) and Eisoptrophobia (Eye-sop-tro-phobia), Spectrophobia is one of the many different reasons a person might be scared to of mirrors. Spectrophobia is specifically used to describe a person's fear to look into a mirror and see something other then their own reflection such as a spirit, demon, or something not of the normal human world. Symptoms of this phobia could be trembling, shaking, faster breathing, increasing heartbeat, crying/screaming, sweating, or panic/anxiety attacks whenever looking into a mirror.
