    Am French-Canadian raised, i remember the Seven o’clock man. It was used as a bedtime rule, something about being in bed before 7 or the man gets you. Never heard it in english tho, it was always “Bonhomme sept heures”.

      That would make sense. It has a modern feel to it too - clocks weren’t a common household item until the last 150 years or so.
