Satanophobia is the fear of satan. This fear is associated with demonophobia (fear of demons) and stygiophobia (fear of hell). These people are scared of burning in hell forever and being tortured by the demons and being anguished forever in hell and being tormented by Satan. People with this fear usually have very strong religious backgrounds thus they would do anything to do what is right so that they don’t have to suffer an eternity in hell but have an afterlife in the midst of the angels in heaven instead.
These people are usually scared of committing a sin and will go to frequent confessions. They will do everything not to think of Satan and will be in a state of constant prayer.
Treatment includes cognitive and behavioral psychotherapy. Talking with a priest or pastor may also help the phobic person to feel better.
