I was wondering whether there are any Jewish practices specific to the night of _Purim_. Of course, we read _Ester_, but we do that by day also; I was looking for something unique to the nighttime. After all, it says in _Ester_ "בערב היא באה", "in the evening she would arrive", a _pasuk_ from which [we learn](/a/55204) many important _halachos_ of _Purim_, so there must be some laws or customs unique to the night. But I can't find anything. Does anyone know of any? --- #This question is [Purim Torah](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purim_Torah) and is not intended to be taken completely seriously.
