People with globophobia might avoid parties in fear of balloons being present.[1]
Balloon phobia or globophobia is a fear of balloons.[2] The most common source of fear is the sound of balloons popping, but individuals can also be triggered by their texture and smell.[1]
Generally, people with globophobia will refuse to touch, feel, smell, or go near a balloon for fear it will burst.[3]
Globophobia originates from the Latin word Globus meaning sphere and the Greek word Phobos which translates to fear.[4]
