night wind
Dark hours' gust
Night wind is wind that blows after dark, often carrying a particular quality—cooler, quieter, or more unsettling than daytime breezes.
The phrase appears frequently in poetry and atmospheric description: The night wind whispered through the pines.
It suggests something slightly mysterious or melancholy, the kind of breeze that makes curtains billow in Gothic scenes.
