Joshua D. Maley, a native of Beaver County PA, is a filmmaker and author known mostly for his forays into the horror genre. Raised in Southwestern Pennsylvania, Maley's early passion for storytelling led him from writing short stories and stage plays to directing his first short film, "Eros is Thanatos," in 2004. Inspired by this experience, he pursued formal education in film, attending Point Park University and Full Sail Online.
In 2015, Maley established Grimm Sleeper Productions, marking his foray into professional filmmaking. His debut short, 415 (2018), debuted at the Pittsburgh Independent Film Festival and has garnered several awards and selections at subsequent festivals. Maley's literary talents also shine, with the publication of his short fiction series, "The Unquiet," which launched in 2018 with "The Unquiet Grave" and continued in its 2021 sequel, "The Unquiet Gift."
Continuing to push creative boundaries, Maley ventured into feature filmmaking with the psychological thriller, "Waltz," which has already picked up recognition and awards for its trailer and promotional art. With a growing portfolio that includes the horror short, "Dead Friends Forever," and horror feature, "Unburied," as well as the cross-genre comedy, "GEN-X: The Movie," Maley may yet prove to be a dynamic force in the entertainment industry.
