Night

[nahyt] noun

1. the period of darkness between sunset and sunrise.

2. the beginning of this period; nightfall 

3. a condition or time of obscurity, ignorance, sinfulness, and misfortune

someone once told me that none of us are actually afraid of the dark; we're scared of what it conceals from us.

we're afraid of having something with the potential to hurt us standing right before our eyes and not registering it as a threat. 

people can be like that too.
