I believe you have to define the function before calling it, so you would move the Night1 function to line 10

fix:

wait(3)
local PlayerGui = script.Parent.PlayerGui
PlayerGui.Events.BlackScreen.Visible = true
PlayerGui.Nights.Night1.Visible = true
PlayerGui.Nights.Night2.Visible = true
PlayerGui.Nights.Night3.Visible = true
PlayerGui.Nights.Night4.Visible = true
PlayerGui.Nights.Night5.Visible = true

local IsVisible = true

function Night1()
    if IsVisible = true then
    PlayerGui.Nights.Night1.Visible = false
    PlayerGui.Nights.Night2.Visible = false
    PlayerGui.Nights.Night3.Visible = false
    PlayerGui.Nights.Night4.Visible = false
    PlayerGui.Nights.Night5.Visible = false
    IsVisible = false
    else
    PlayerGui.Nights.Night1.Visible = true
    PlayerGui.Nights.Night2.Visible = true
    PlayerGui.Nights.Night3.Visible = true
    PlayerGui.Nights.Night4.Visible = true
    PlayerGui.Nights.Night5.Visible = true
    IsVisible = true
    end
end

PlayerGui.Nights.Night1.MouseButton1Down:Connect(Night1)

do you mean that when you turn them off, they aren't turning visible again?

What you need to do is check if they are set to visible, and if they are make them invisible, and the other way around:

wait(3)
local PlayerGui = game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui
PlayerGui.Events.BlackScreen.Visible = true
PlayerGui.Nights.Night1.Visible = true
PlayerGui.Nights.Night2.Visible = true
PlayerGui.Nights.Night3.Visible = true
PlayerGui.Nights.Night4.Visible = true
PlayerGui.Nights.Night5.Visible = true

local visible = true

function Night1()
	if visible then
		PlayerGui.Nights.Night1.Visible = false
	    PlayerGui.Nights.Night2.Visible = false
	    PlayerGui.Nights.Night3.Visible = false
	    PlayerGui.Nights.Night4.Visible = false
	    PlayerGui.Nights.Night5.Visible = false
		visible = false
	elseif not visible then
		PlayerGui.Nights.Night1.Visible = true
	    PlayerGui.Nights.Night2.Visible = true
	    PlayerGui.Nights.Night3.Visible = true
	    PlayerGui.Nights.Night4.Visible = true
	    PlayerGui.Nights.Night5.Visible = true
		visible = true
	end
end

PlayerGui.Nights.Night1.MouseButton1Down:Connect(Night1())

are you sure the other parts of your script works? because we are just formatting it correctly for you
