Televisiophobia is the irrational fear of watching television.
Causes[]
One possible cause is past trauma pertaining to television. Or if you get severe migraines if you watch television for too long, you might develop a fear of watching television for too long.
Some might also fear the television might unexpectedly broadcast something creepy/unsettling, such as the Emergency Alert System (see EASphobia), a scary moment in a TV show, or in a very rare case, the program getting hacked by third parties.
