We’ve Been Waiting for You
About us
Uncover They Are the Smeagols — a story born from obsession and something far darker. From deep within Uxbridge, Ontario, we’ve crafted a nightmare that waits patiently to consume you. Our Halloween film arrives the night before the end, when shadows crawl and nothing is safe.

ryder
Ryder is the twisted heart of They Are the Smeagols — the one who first asked, “What if the things we left behind didn’t stay there?” As the film’s creator, lead writer, and the mind behind the haunting creature design, Ryder shaped the story from the inside out. Every Smeagol, every scare, every eerie silence carries his imprint. This isn’t just a film to him — it’s a nightmare he built with pain.

miles
Miles brought the vision to life with a sharp eye and a steady hand. As director and co-writer, he guided the film through every shadow and scream, translating a strange, personal script into something raw and cinematic. Miles doesn’t just direct horror — he makes it feel like memory.

charlie
Charlie kept the whole haunted machine running. As producer, editor, and sound designer, he turned long nights and louder arguments into a finished film that’s sharp, eerie, and strangely emotional. If They Are the Smeagols pulls you under, it’s Charlie’s pacing and atmosphere that hold you there.
"Been following this since day one — and honestly, it already feels like our movie. Let’s go, Smeagols."
