Nerophobe

A person who has an irrational fear or aversion to anything black in color. Examples would include (and overlap) anxiety and/or depression viewing the night sky, darkness, cars (like a hearse) or even furniture that's painted black.
The prefix is the Italian word for the color black.
My wife exhibits nerophobia (is a nerophobe) and needs anxiety medication when she stares at our 82" TV, entertainment center, and my guitars on either side, which

are all black in color.
