About Ryan
From a young age, my imagination was shaped by the legends of horror—Carpenter, King, Craven, and Williamson. Their masterful storytelling ignited my passion for the things that haunt us and the fears that linger in the shadows. It was during my explorations of screenplays that I realized my true calling: to craft spine-chilling horror films that resonate with audiences.
My journey has been anything but ordinary. Working the graveyard shift as a security guard provided me with countless experiences that fuel my writing. Coupled with near-death encounters and a vivid imagination, I have amassed a wealth of material that translates into compelling narratives and genuine scares.
I’m proud to have my projects recognized on Coverfly, where my work continues to gain traction. I am dedicated to pushing the boundaries of horror and delivering unforgettable cinematic experiences.
