Paranoia mixed with being gullible. There has never been a time where someone hasn't set a date for the end of the world to happen. Each time many fall for it and even sometimes start cults which take their own lives before the approaching date.

Sadly religious beliefs such as Christianity also contribute to this delusions as people wish to see their religious version of the end of the world.

I, personally, do not think that I am going to die in 2012 but there are many people who do think that they are for many different reasons. The main reason for many is that the Mayan Calendar ends in 2012. Another reason is the fact that Nostradamis, a famous prophet and astrologer, predicted the world ends in 2012.
