QUOTES -- "We got into horror to explore the dark side to ourselves, and if we're totally honest and vulnerable about what scares us, we'll create real fear and dread for our fans." - Drew Daywalt, Fewdio -- "The reigning kings of web horror. . ." - Peter Gutierrez, Firefox News -- "A wry and accomplished mix of chill and chuckle." - Kate Stables, Guardian UK -- "Nightmare House's sole purpose seems to be to make audiences soil themselves." - Andrew Schwarz, Tubefilter -- "Before you click the Play button, you might want to put an old towel or something absorbent under you to protect the upholstery." - Gregory S.

Fewdio is a partnership between 7 writers, directors, producers, actors, and executives (Marshall Carr, John Crye, Drew Daywalt, Paul Hungerford, David Schneider, Todd A. Sharp, and Kirk B.R. Woller) who started making "garage movies" instead of the usual poker night. They discovered they could not only make the movies they love independently, they could also distribute their own films, nurture their own audience, and build their own brand. That is their dream. And it will give you nightmares.
