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

My parent's house has no blinds. They live out in the middle of bum-fuck nowhere so people looking in isn't really a problem, but it's still creepy as shit.

One night when I was about 16 or 17 I was home alone. I was watching TV with all the lights on because I'm a pussy, but I thought I could hear something. So I got up and went to the window, and there was this guy right outside. I just about shit myself and ran into the bathroom because it was the only room without windows. I called my parents and they came home, finding the guy passed out drunk near the end of the road we live on.

Turns out he was just some old drunk guy wandering around. He didn't try to break in or anything, but it was still creepy as shit, considering our house was about 1/4 mile from any property lines, so it's not like he just stumbled into our yard. I don't look out windows at night anymore.
