How about a motion sensor that turns on a strobe light? Random things can look like they are moving and scary.

There should be some way to rig a toy that has is motion activated. The baby songs can be replaced with airplane noises, or truck noises from other toys?

You could also download sound affects, and play them with an old phone or Bluetooth maybe get Alexa involved... Alexa play a vacuum noise at 2am every night at low volume.

Lol I'm having fun with this cat scaring project

This is exactly my kind of thinking. Was trying to think of some sort of toy with lights and stuff. Alexa also crossed my mind. I can play on alexa sounds triggered by motion and stuff so it's definitely on my list of potential tools for this task.
