creature of the night
Darkness-loving being
A creature of the night is someone or something active during nighttime hours.
Literally, it refers to nocturnal animals—bats, owls, moths.
Figuratively, it describes vampires, werewolves, and similar monsters of horror fiction.
More casually, it applies to night owls and people who thrive after dark: I've always been a creature of the night—don't expect me before noon.
