I actually love the idea. I have always wondered why people build explosion resistant houses when creepers don't actively blow them up anyways? Also, I don't understand why people think this would lag their game out. It isn't spawning additional mobs, just preventing current mobs from despawning.
FULL SUPPORT!
Just one small suggestion. Skeletons should get a slight range increase so they can more easily shoot up walls. In fact, this might be al little OP, but I will throw it out anyways. Maybe they could have an AI improvement that lets they shoot arrows over walls in the general direction of the player. This "volley fire" effect would help create a castle siege sort of feeling to the night.
Oh yeah, this may be on topic. Obsidian should get a major nerf. A blast resistance of 6000 is way too much. I would rather have it set somewhere around 150-200 that it being the ultimate protective material.

Well it could potentially lag people. For example, most mobs that spawn are just in a very basic "wander" AI, where they walk a few blocks, then stop for a minute or so. But in this, instead of having maybe 10 mobs at most tracking a player, you have 70 all using a more complex AI package to try and pathfind to the player.
That being said, I don't outright hate the idea, but it just sounds boring and way too easy to avoid if you know basic game mechanics.

-stack Enderman-proof blocks to prevent Zombies from getting you-
-make it high enough so Creeper explosions cant reach the top-
-add a platform to prevent Spiders from getting you-
-add a fence/glass wall to see outside but to prevent Skeletons from shooting you-
-add a 2-high ceiling to prevent Endermen from getting you-
Congratulations, you just found an easy way to survive the blood moon.

In any case, there is no way in hell that I am building a castle. Maybe if I want to blow it apart to fit the mood of the world, kinda a "civilization ended, nature reclaimed area, time passed" thing. Not building one to hide out in every 100 nights or so.

Your brain is so powerful, it would take a state of the art computer the size of a factory to come even close to matching the processing power.
I like it, but I don't. The reason that I like it, is because it would add yet another challenge for MC. I don't think that this would entirely mean that castles would fix this, but they might help. I don't like it because if im building and it turns to a blood moon night than I might be pretty mad. But overall I don't think that this should be implemented. Plus we have beds and all you have to do is sleep and there goes your 1/100 chance blood moon. :/
Didn't anyone hear me? I said you CANNOT sleep during a blood moon.
Maybe for hard/hardcore, or triggered by some player action. Maybe. But I think this in general pushes the game too far away from being an open-ended creativity sandbox, especially with the creeper griefing.
this should probably only be on hard mode but intresting idea also it shouldn't happen within first 10-20 MC days
although this does feel like it has been taken from terraria i don't really care that much
building 2 blocks above the closest terrain is all it takes to void the difficulty intended here. Because of that, I don't see this as terribly effective and unnecessary simply because you can add the challenge through provided game rules.
I personally think this could be more like a slightly scaled up zombie siege, without all the crazy mob buffs. Zombie hordes (plus some skeletons and spiders) could spawn around large buildings every once in a while (identifying buildings via the same code as that used by villagers).
i'd give it support. What's the big deal,i mean, if you don't like, you just have to make a bed, right??
No. Thats not it at all. During a lunar eclispe (Or a blood moon..) you cant sleep.
I would like to add a statement to mine.
If you build a castle, Would you want to have it getting blown up by the 10 creepers that spawn near you? Not me. I would like my castle to be safe and look nice.
*Idea taken directly from Terraria... which already has it implemented*
This isnt "Taken directly from Terraria". Terraria has Blood Moons. Sure, its buffs enemys, but Terrarias blood moon ALSO spawns diferent monsters. This is pretty much original.And this is a LUNAR ECLIPSE. Not a BLOOD MOON.

It used to be a blood moon.
Anyway, it's much more balanced now. Support.

I have discovered a truly remarkable proof of this, which this margin is too small to contain.

Agreed. This is from Terraria. Perhaps it may be in minecraft as a mod, but will never be implemented in the game.

Right here. I dont creepers should ever function like that.

AT LEAST IT'S CREATIVE. ( That's what she said. ) I'm so lonely...

Hostile mobs dont spawn at light level 9
They spawn at light level 7 or below

A castle (from Latin: castellum) is a type of fortified structure built in Europe and the Middle East during the Middle Ages by nobility - Wikipedia
If a army of middle age warriors, catapults and cannons can't take down some castle walls, how can 1 single little creeper?
