Dr. Evil's Face Your Fears series of caches will highlight common phobias (fears) that many people have towards common everyday things or objects. Some phobias are steeped in years of conditioning and survival instinct. Some fears come from childhood experiences. Some fears are just irrational but cause anxiety and reaction nonetheless. Dr. Evil thought it would be interesting to create some caches just to see how cachers react to certain phobias. Each of the caches are designed to exploit, expose, and trigger a phobia response (assuming the cacher has that phobia). Many cachers will have no issues with these caches and some may decide to just DNF and walk away. Dr. Evil may add to the series from time to time as he gets a notion to. Good luck facing your fears!
This cache is combines several phobias into one cache since all of these phobias are often intertwined with graveyards and cemeteries.
Coimetrophobia is the fear of cemeteries, and is more common than one would think. This fear originates from a place where dead bodies are buried thus triggering a reminder that one day we all will be laid in a cemetery somewhere. People with this fear often have an associated fear of death (don't worry, that is not part of the series....yet). This fear can also be temporary after watching too many zombie or horror movies.
Placophobia is the fear of tombstones and grave markers. This fear is usually accompanied with Coimetrophobia since that is where most tombstone reside. People with an extreme fear of death often have the phobias of places and things that remind one of death.
Hagiophobia is the fear of saints and holy things, like statues of angels. This fear is usually developed by past experiences attaching themselves to imagines of holy things or saints.
For this cache you will have to Face Your Fear. Cache is a tombstone very near to a cemetery, and has an angel statue attached. If you have any of these fears then good luck. If not, please say hi to Francsis for me.
