Sonoscopophobia

The fear of being watched or stalked, triggered by faint, unexplained sounds—especially deep bass or music coming from a car you can’t see. Common in urban environments and horror movie moments, where the sound feels like a lurking threat.

I heard that slow bass thump from somewhere down the block, and I froze—instant sonoscopophobia.
