Default Loud Humming when TURNED OFF..mind of its own?

Not sure if my 13' rx350 is haunted. Went in the garage (car had been sitting for hrs) and heard this pound humming. Checked everything in the garage and kneeled down near driver side /passanger door and could hear the humming coming from under the car. Checked to see if the radiator fan was running ..nope. This has occurred on 2 occasions that I know as it seems to be random so Im concerned if I take it to dealer I'll get the "can't duplicate"...ny ideas folks?

I also heard mine doing this in the garage. I loosened the gas cap and heard the pressure equalize and the noise stopped.

I'm pretty sure that's the HID's they are still on after you turn off the car. Once you lock it with the key and the lights go off; the sound should go too,
