Daily Cuts – Halloween Special: The Psychology of Phobia

Halloween is a fun time for most thrill seekers as they take the opportunity to go to events like Halloween Horror Nights. Other brave souls might try to conquer their fear of the dark inside a haunted house.

Andrea Heng and Hairianto Diman speak to Dr Annabelle Chow, Clinical Psychologist, Annabelle Psychology, to take a look at the causes of phobias and ways to overcome them.
