Though it can lead to the fear that if you are attacked you will become a zombie hrmm...so maybe Ambulonecrophobia as a fear of zombies in general and Ambulothanatophobia for a fear of being attacked and becoming a zombie yourself?

I'm terrified to go out for a cigarette by myself at night, and if anyone says "the zede word" (either the actual word, or just the phrase "the zede word") when I'm outside, I get really paranoid and freaked out. I know my fear has something to do with fear of forced conformity and a deadening of my soul, but still...it's intense. I actually found this page because I had a dream last night where I had to chop off my arm due to my hand having been bitten by a zombie. :(:( I love the word, ambulothanatophobia.I think we can even call it ATP for short. We need to get this word recognised. Count me in on the “fear-of-the-undead” club.

Ten years ago hearing voices was an indicator for schizofrenia whereas now there are actually support-groups that adress the problem which is now considered to be... stress-related.
