Captain Clegg is a 1962 Hammer Film Productions film. In the United States, it is known as Night Creatures. It is loosely based on Doctor Syn and stars Peter Cushing, Yvonne Romain, and Patrick Allen.

Captain Collier (Patrick Allen) and his band of sailors show up to an English coastal town to investigate reports of "Marsh Phantoms" who ride by night spreading terror to the town. The Captain suspects that the local parson (Peter Cushing) might be hiding something. Are the phantoms genuine or a cover for illegal smuggling activities?

In North America, the film was released on 6 September 2005 along with seven other Hammer horror films on the 4-DVD set The Hammer Horror Series (ASIN: B0009X770O), which is part of MCA-Universal's Franchise Collection. This set was re-released on Blu-ray September 13, 2016.

A Blu-ray was released in the UK on 23 June 2014 by Final Cut Entertainment.
