B Correct answer
Explanation

The statement is FALSE - this is an ironic urban legend with no basis in fact. Thomas Edison, who invented the first commercially practical incandescent lightbulb, was not afraid of the dark. There is no historical evidence supporting this claim. Edison was known for his work ethic and perseverance, not nyctophobia (fear of darkness).
