freon leak or dirty evaporator coil

Shut the unit off until the coil thaws. then try cleaning the coils
then restart unit. if it freezes up again, then u likely need Freon

Turn unit off and let it thaw. In addition to what everyone else said-change your filter

a frozen evap takes 3 hours to thaw out with just the fan blowing on it. OP
Turn ac off on thermostat. Select fan only. Let run for 3 hours then try again. Only after cleaning the dirty coil first though.

Shouldn't have frozen up overnight unless there is a leak. Check pressures and add if necessary. There is a table online of what r134a pressures should be at each outside temperature. If it happens again quickly, call an A/C man

Was it flooded? I've seen some funky contactors. If the contacts are fused together the unit will not shut off until you cut the breaker/disconnect.
