claude-strophobia 

The fear of Claude Faustus. He is pretty scary, if ya ask me.
Everyone knew she had Claude-strophobia yet they still sent her to the spider demons layer.

Claus-strophobia 

The feeling of being trapped and encroached on by Christmas; being unable to avoid or escape the commercials, the music, and the rest of the havoc that is wreaked upon all of us regardless of our religious denomination from Thanksgiving to new years'.
It's still a few days from Christmas, but I am dealing with a severe case of Claus-strophobia after going by the mall. Wake me up when it's over.

Introverted Claustrophobia 

When an introvert is a large crowd and feels as if everyone is closing in on them.

Feeling overwhelmed or stressed in crowds or loud noise.
During that concert Nancy felt as if she had introverted claustrophobia.

claustrophobia 

Fear of being in enclosed spaces. Not necessarily small spaces, although many claustrophobic people don't like these much either. The main issue is being trapped in somewhere you can't get out of easily. Claustrophobic people may avoid or feel uncomfortable in situations like flying in a plane, being in the middle of a crowd, or using an elevator.
Friend: Now we just take the elevator up to the ninety-seventh floor...oh, I forgot. You've got claustrophobia. Better take the stairs then *sigh*

Me: Actually, like many others with claustrophobia I still use elevators, because we don't let it control our entire lives.

Little Harry took one look at the bleary eyed old geezer with a white beard and did a runner. It was a bad case of traumatic claustrophobia.
