I always interpreted the phrase "after midnight" to mean "after midnight and before dawn."

The biggest flaw in the Gremlins movie.

Pretty sure there is an lmplied 'after midnight and before dawn'becsuse bad stuff happens at night. It would have taken a half second to make it clear.

Midnight is a terrible point in time for magic creatures anyway. Do they follow time zones or daylight savings time?

Midnight isn’t even the mid of the night most days.

After some midnight, anyway. When you say "midnight" you're usually referring to a particular one, implied by context. Or spelled out for that matter.
