Symphorophilia

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki


Symphorophilia is a paraphilia in which sexual arousal involves staging and watching a tragedy, such as a fire or a traffic accident.

The term was coined by John Money in his 1984 paper Paraphilias: Phenomenology and classification, formed from the Greek root "συμφορά" (symphora, "event, misfortune").[1]
