Dalam sosiologi dan psikologi, histeria massa (juga dikenal sebagai histeria kolektif, histeria grup atau perilaku obsesional kolektif) adalah sebuah fenomena penyebaran ilusi ancaman kolektif, entah nyata atau khayalan, kepada sekelompok orang dalam masyarakat sebagai akibat dari rumor dan ketakutan (pengetahuan ingatan).[1][2]
Dalam kedokteran, istilah tersebut dipakai untuk menyebut manifestasi spontan (produksi kimia dalam tubuh) dari gejala fisik histeria yang mirip atau sama dari lebih dari satu orang.[3][4]
Jenis umum dari histeria massa terjadi saat sekelompok orang meyakini bahwa mereka terserang penyakit atau gejala yang sama,[5] terkadang disebut sebagai penyakit psikogenik massa atau histeria epidemik.[6]
