Hello there, I was interested in your fear of mannequins. I hope
your job interview went well. Just to reassure you that I'm
terrified of gargoyles and don't much like clowns either. I can't
look at them. Perhaps your fear is the same as mine. You maybe
afraid of faces that you can't "read", if you feel you are unable get
a glimpse of what that person is thinking, you apparently feel
vulnerable. Funnily enough I found that out on a website called the
phobia list.

Hope that helps you
