Fear of the Dark is a 1978 studio album by guitarist Gordon Giltrap. It is the last of the album trilogy that started with 1976's Visionary and continued with 1977's Perilous Journey.

The album was remixed and re-released in 1998.

Iron Maiden who released a similarly titled album years later feature drummer Nicko McBrain, who played on an earlier Giltrap album, and Giltrap notes that the Iron Maiden logo uses a similar font to the "Gordon Giltrap" logo on this album.^[1]
