Small or enclosed spaces and having no escape. Like bee stings and heights, this is one of those things that unnerve essentially everybody, but, like those two, it also affects some people much more than others. Some people are deathly afraid of enclosed spaces, and anything from being trapped in a stuck elevator to being shut in a closet could cause them to Freak Out and make being Locked in a Room and Locked in a Freezer ever so much more fun for all involved. Studies show that around 1 in 20 people in the world have severe claustrophobia. For fictional characters, the number is more like 1 in 3. Expect visions of small places getting smaller and smaller until there's no place to breathe, and expect anyone who is revealed to be claustrophobic before the fact to be put into a tight situation eventually. If this is The Hero's debilitating weakness, then it's also an example of Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?, though it is a phobia that can and will occur in any kind of character, since it's so easy to give situations where it would come into play. The opposite, rarer (in reality and in fiction) phobia — where the character is afraid of wide-open spaces — is called agoraphobia, though that often limits itself to being afraid of the outside world in general, and those suffering it often still feel comfortable remaining inside a firmly locked house. Truth in Television, of course, as it's a common fear many Tropers reading this may know someone who is claustrophobic or even be claustrophobic. The Other Wiki explains it in depth here. |

In The Thick of It, Nicola Murray (like actress Rebecca Front) is claustrophobic. Judging by his reaction to being locked in Peter Mannion's bathroom as the result of a prank in the Opposition special, Stewart Pearson may also be. | |

Dragon Age: If you bring Anders to the Deep Roads in Dragon Age: Origins – Awakening, he gets distracted by the miles and miles of rock over your heads. If he's telling the truth about spending a year in solitary confinement back at the Circle, that would explain it. Isabela from Dragon Age II isn't fond of the Deep Roads either, nervously saying that she "really doesn't like tight spaces" if you take her with you on the expedition. |

Rocketship Voyager. In Chapter XI, the Caretaker has Captain Janeway sealed up inside a cargo rocket that's barely large enough to hold her and launched into space. The combination of confinement and sudden exposure to the infinity of space gives her a momentary panic attack until she's able to stabilize her breathing. | |

He uses remote technology to trap her in a hospital elevator and send her to a floor that's temporarily empty so screaming for help is in vain.

iCarly has Carly develop this when she, Sam, and Freddie are locked in a space pod to see how well they can handle space travel. Carly freaks out so much she breaks the glass to get out of the pod. This returns in a later episode when she is locked in a padded room with Sam and her mother. According to the 2021 series, it actually originated as a result of Carly being trapped in an MRI machine due to the technician forgetting about her. | |

It took the Tiger Tribe three days to get her out of the wreckage and save her.

"Nightfall (1941)": Due to their Endless Daytime, the people of Lagash are so afraid of the dark that 15 minutes without light are enough for a 10% chance of becoming extremely claustrophobic. They discovered this pattern with a theme park ride called "The Tunnel of Mystery". Nightfall (1990): The people of Kalgash are so used to daylight that 15 minutes of darkness is enough for a 10% chance of becoming extremely claustrophobic. |

Phase, of the Whateley Universe has some degree of claustrophobia. This is pretty reasonable, since he's: been experimented on (i.e. tortured) by a Mad Scientist while trapped in a box the size of a coffin; nearly suffocated underground; been trapped in a pitch-dark sewer with no flashlight while being attacked by a zombie army; and his own powers mean he can pass through solid objects but he can't see or breathe while he's doing it. Ouch. | |

Total Drama: Gwen is claustrophobic, as we find out in "Phobia Factor" when she has to face her fear of being Buried Alive as part of the challenge. It gets even worse for her in Revenge of the Island when she is trapped in a cave with Sam who keeps suffocating her with his farts. Jasmine of Pahkitew Island is also claustrophobic despite her size, and even freaks out when she has to do spelunking as part of the challenge. Josee of Total Drama Presents: The Ridonculous Race has this as her Achilles' Heel. |

It's never explicitly stated, but in Final Fantasy VII, Cloud freaks out whenever he's forced to go into a tight space, like when he goes into the hut to open the bridge on Mt. Corel or has to enter the submarine interior. Considering his history, it would make sense for him to be a claustrophobe. | |

Lister in Red Dwarf had a bout of this when performing an Air-Vent Passageway escape. Lampshaded the fact that it was the first time this had ever come up. He explains that he's fine so long as he knows he can get out. He developed the phobia when the husband of a co-worker with whom he was having an affair locked him in a box and threatened to throw him into a river, then let him out on stage in the middle of a production of The Importance of Being Earnest (he was naked at the time). | |

Two unavoidable instances of this in Escape from Horrorland. One is where you are crawling through incredibly cramped wooden tunnels while being chased by a mummy at high speed directly behind you, and it is very easy to get lost in the tunnels. The other time is when you have to shut yourself inside a coffin and use it as a boat down a sewer, while spiders enter the coffin and try to bite you. | |

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Garak suffers from claustrophobia to a debilitating degree. It's hinted at earlier in the show, and sometimes even crops up as a Sarcastic Confession before the show eventually reveals that he genuinely does have the condition and it hasn't been one of his many tall tales. As a result, it's been used as a plot point several times in the show (both before and after the reveal). This is a case of Written-In Infirmity due to Real Life Writes the Plot. Garak's actor is so claustrophobic that even wearing the Cardassian make-up could be a problem for him. | |

In Grim Fandango, French waiter Raoul is claustrophobic, and Manny has to lock him up inside a closet. Raoul starts to panic, and ends up accidentally knocking himself out. Later in the game, Manny locks himself up inside a vault, and discovers that he doesn't feel very comfortable in such places, either. |

Coco Adel is revealed to be claustrophobic in RWBY: After the Fall. As a child, she got herself locked under the sink all day during a game of hide and seek and wasn't found until much later when she desperately kicked against the pipes to make noise. This fear leaves her very jumpy and trigger happy when trying to escort a family of survivors through tunnels in the mountain. | |

Fort Boyard: Although not stated to be about claustrophobia, some of the challenges are made all the more uncomfortable for being in a very small space, such as the Spider's Nest, for which the contestant has to crawl through a tiny door into a small room. There is also the Searching Head challenge, for which the contestant must pass their head into very small chambers containing frogs, locusts, rats, cockroaches and flies, and the Shrinking Room, in which the ceiling slowly lowers. | |

The K'Kree in Traveller are descended from plains-dwelling herd animals, and as such are claustrophobic as a species (only K'Kree with some form of mental illness are unaffected). Their "buildings" are actually really big tents, partitioned by curtains; the only walls are for load-bearing. Even their spaceships are giant glass domes enclosing an artificial field... which means one good shot from an opposing ship will kill the entire crew, because they're so afraid of close spaces that they can't even wear helmets. | |

In Rowan of Rin by Emily Rodda, weak and cowardly Rowan is fated to accompany six big, strong, brave villagers up the forbidden mountain to find out what has stopped up the village's stream. The big, strong, brave villagers get picked off one at a time due to phobias and fears. One of the last to go is Marlie, the stout little weaver, who tries valiantly to fight past her claustrophobia, but can't do it. She's forced to turn back. Lucky, too, because the last leg of the journey is a three-day stretch inside a winding tunnel so tiny that even little Rowan is crawling on his stomach the whole way, and Strong Jonn can barely fit. And they can't take any supplies. | |

Doctor Reid Oliver from As the World Turns showed signs of severe claustrophobia when the elevator he and Luke were in got stuck, going so far as to risk damaging his hands in an attempt to escape and manhandling Luke in fear that Luke's jumping could genuinely get them killed. Seeing as all he had to do to escape death by train was wiggle out of his seatbelt, open his door (possibly break the window and exit that way if the door also refused to open), and sprint, this could have been an Author's Saving Throw. However, the actor played the scene as calmly frantic rather than as if claustrophobia was severely impairing his judgment. | |

Animorphs: The entire Andalite race is claustrophobic. Justified in that Andalites are descended from herd animals that lived in grasslands. In The Ellimist Chronicles (a distant prequel to the main Animorphs series), the Ketrans have a similar species-wide claustrophobia. This is seen when they are forced to enter and fly an alien ship of opaque metal. Ketrans are a winged species which live on massive transparent crystals that float in the sky. |

The elimination of Episode 3 calls for a person to be Buried Alive — one of the slowest and most painful death methods used across the entire series as a whole, and easily the most brutal one in the season. In the episode, Justine the Gambler is believed to be The Mole and a Bitch in Sheep's Clothing by most of the cast after failing to save the person who died the previous episode and reacting rudely when confronted about the alleged Failure-to-Save Murder. As a result, the character in question is near-unanimously chosen for death… after being revealed to be highly claustrophobic on Confession Cam, which only makes the elimination/death all the more heart-wrenching and terrifying to watch. | |

The Magnus Archives: Martin, one of the archivist's assistants, is a sufferer, and therefore excuses himself from investigating a caving-related case. Later he has to endure being trapped in his flat for two weeks by Jane Prentiss. The Buried is the Dread Power which represents claustrophobia itself, with its most notable example being a coffin that serves as a portal into an Eldritch Location designed to make someone feel as trapped and suffocated as possible without killing them. | |

Almost universal for pegasi in the Triptych Continuum, to the point where it stands out if somepony doesn't have it. For Rainbow, it can start kicking in any time there isn't enough room for a full wingspan, with no clear route to the sky — while Fluttershy has no trouble entering her own basement. | |

The UFO (1970) episode "Sub-Smash" has a female Shado crewmember who's morbidly claustrophobic. She's none too happy when she has to try escaping from the crashed submarine of the title through a narrow missile tube. She's even less happy when it fails to open, leaving her trapped inside. Her commanding officer also suffered from claustrophobia, and originally thought her crying for help was his own mind starting to crack up. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: A pony the main characters are entertaining in the episode "Games Ponies Play" is very skittish about being indoors and completely freaks out when a vase gets stuck on her head. Turns out to be a case of Shown Their Work as the pony refers to herself as a mustang, a breed known for being claustrophobic. In the episode "What Lies Beneath", Gallus the griffon is shown to be highly claustrophobic when The Tree of Harmony tests him by trapping him in enclosed space that shrinks when he touches a light beam of the wrong color, forcing him to overcome his claustrophobia. |

Ash Ketchum's Pikachu from Pokémon: The Series is actually implied to be claustrophobic because of his dislike of being contained within a Pokéball like all of the other Pokémon. The only time we ever see him come out of a Pokéball was at the very beginning of the first episode where Ash chooses him as his Starter Pokémon, and the only time we ever see him go inside a Pokéball is about halfway through Pokémon: The First Movie during the scene where Mewtwo captures all of the trainers' Pokémon using several sinister-looking Pokéballs (which for some reason, also capture Pokémon that are already inside their own Pokéballs), so he can create an army of cloned Pokémon to help him rule the world. When the aforementioned "Clone Balls" come back to release all of the captured Pokémon, Pikachu, as a result of this, is apparently now extremely pissed... | |

Harriett Potter in The Rigel Black Chronicles is typically an indoors person and actually used to like cozy spaces. Then she spent a week locked in an underground chamber with an exit only large enough for rodents, and a second week in a chamber underneath the first that was too small to stand upright, gradually starving to death. She doesn't like enclosed spaces any more. | |

While comforting him, Applejack comments that it is a common problem for beings who can fly; many Pegasi have it too. Irys, a member of the pterodactyl/bat-like Gyaos, also has this.

Urusei Yatsura: Shutaro Mendo suffers from both this and a fear of darkness... unless any women are watching, in which case his desire to look cool and suave trumps it. It's later revealed that he developed these phobias as a child from the actions of himself as a teen, travelling back in time to attempt to prevent the phobias from developing in the first place. After getting fed up with the bratty, borderline abusive (who are we kidding? — actually abusive) behavior of his younger self, Mendou snapped and was about to take himself out of the timeline by chopping the kid into tiny bits with his katana. Kid Mendou hid out in a room full of large clay jars, scared for his life, as he heard Mendou smashing them trying to find him. Lum knocked Mendou out just as he found Kid Mendou, leaving a traumatized toddler. | |

Goblin Slayer: Inverted with Goblin Slayer in his profession, who very much prefers fighting goblins in narrow space which allow him to kill hundreds of them in a single dungeon. After experiencing fighting them in open areas during his first year of adventuring, he absolutely hates the idea of fighting them in such an environment again. When an army of goblins are about to invade the farm where he and Cow Girl live, he has to ask the entire guild for help, since he wouldn't be able to survive fighting so many of them in an open field. He even says that if it were a narrow cave, he would just do it alone. | |

In The Caves of Steel Protagonist Elijah Baley and all of the Earthlings raised in the crowded, claustrophobic Cities, have agoraphobia — a fear of open spaces, in this case the outdoors in general. Baley starts confronting this fear in the second novel, and is largely successful, although being caught in a thunderstorm doesn't help. | |

The sixth Artemis Fowl book gives Holly Short claustrophobia tied to some newly revealed backstory, although she never seemed to have a problem with small spaces in previous books. This is explained away as that she had overcome this claustrophobia long before the events of the books, but her body had become that of an adolescent due to unforeseen side effects of the time traveling, so she had gotten back her claustrophobia. | |

In Diagnosis: Murder book "The Silent Partner", a Serial Killer known as The Reaper has this condition; consistent with this, he lived in a warehouse, worked in a job which kept him outdoors, and deposited the corpses of his victims in wide open spaces. Except Lydia Yates, which is what convinces Dr. Mark Sloan that The Reaper didn't kill her. | |

Barbara Bain's real life claustrophobia was written into an episode of Mission: Impossible in which her character (also claustrophobic) is tortured by being drugged and held in a small, enclosed space. | |

In Spongebob Squarepants, Squidward tells SpongeBob and Patrick that he is claustrophobic. However, SpongeBob and Patrick think that means he was scared of Santa Claus. Complete with Patrick trying to "scare" him by saying "Ho ho ho!" | |

In one episode of Night Court, Dan Fielding reveals his claustrophobia while trapped in a stuck elevator with two sumo wrestlers and bailiff Roz. She helps calm him by having his close his eyes and imagine he is standing in the middle of a football stadium, with lots of room all around him, and it's filled with happy, cheering people who are all looking at him... and he's naked. That last detail elicits a grin from him. | |
