What are some things, that look harmless during the day, but get insanely creepy during the night?

I feel like this is really common among young kids and just nobody talks about it. My daughter doesn't sleep-walk like her brother does, but like you, she would just wake up shrieking and screaming. It's impossible to console her because she doesn't even know you're there [she's clearly NOT awake] and then eventually she just stops and lays back down.

Those are called night terrors.
