Minecraft making creepy noises?

I was playing minecraft a while back and it made these creepy like suspenseful noises you would hear in a horror movie or something. Nothing else on my computer was open, so I know it was the game. Is it supposed to do that, or was I just hearing stuff? It's not a big deal, just wondering what it might have been.

It's perfectly normal, it often happens in caves or at night.
If it's too creepy either turn the sounds off or just lower it

Most likely monsters or light music.
