I would like to suggest an entry to be added to the list of mass panic cases. It pertains to the 'fugue epidemic' between 1887 and 1909. It was described by the philosophers Ian Hacking in his book "Mad Travelers", on which there is a wikipedia article. People would travel for hundreds of miles - often on foot - while being unconscious or half conscious. They often also lost (part of) their identity in the process. I believe this is a fitting addition to the list of mass panic cases - through perhaps it could also fit in the wikipedia article entitled 'Mass psychogenic illness'. What do you think?

Calling that ‘mass hysteria’ when the reason why it happened is very well and clearly documented is kind of insulting. Those seizures happened due to bright, quick flashing lights. That’s not hysteria.
Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. M.Bitton (talk) 18:43, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
