Weird fears? I can't think of any.

But I am completely petrified of the dark. Like Nate_dog_woof, it is something that I have had passed on from my childhood. Specifically, it is only when I'm alone in the dark. My brain likes to go nuts, and have me become paranoid that there is someone, or something hiding anywhere I can't illuminate.

My actual fear has got better, a lot better in fact. I don't feel the need to have my do open anymore (my thinking was that if it was open, I could see an intruder), and I don't need to always sleep with my dooner completely covering me (I believed for whatever reasons that I was inifinitely safe under my dooner, and I'd literally sweat to death in Summer, when I wouldn't part with it).

And I guess this all started when I mistook the dripping of the taps in my old house, and creakings to be intruders. I would hide under my dooner, and hope that nothing would happen. Of course, nothing ever did happen. But, this was my childhood, and its a very delicate time for the mind.
