No. Boogeyman was written by American television writer Eric Kripke.

The boogeyman killed them. No one really knows where he hides the bodies. That's why the police think that the children have run away.

The Boogeyman is basically Tim's fears all joined together, meaning that he created his own boogeyman.

In short, Tim ends up sitting in a chair in front of his closet in his old house, faces the boogeyman, and starts destroying all the things that frightened him as a kid which made the figure of the boogeyman and so the boogeyman is destroyed because Tim is finally facing his fears.

For movies about the boogeyman, you only have to look as far as the title. There are at least a half dozen movies called Boogeyman. First, you may wish to see Boogeyman 2 (2007), the sequel to this movie. There is a Boogeyman 3, but it wont be released until 2009. Next, you may wish to watch the Boogeyman series that began in 1980 with The Boogeyman, in which a boogeyman comes through a mirror. This was followed in 1983 by Boogeyman II and Return of the Boogeyman aka The Return of the Boogeyman in 1994. In Stephen King's The Boogeyman (1982), a man receives psychiatric care after his three children were killed by a boogeyman. Although the boogeyman in Jeepers Creepers (2001) is renamed "The Creeper", the alternative title for Jeepers Creepers is Here Comes the Boogeyman. Finally, there is John Carpenters Halloween series -- Halloween (1978), Halloween II (1981), Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers (1988), Halloween 5 (1989) aka The Revenge of Michael Myers, Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers (1995), Halloween H20: 20 Years Later (1998), and Halloween: Resurrection (2002) -- in which Michael Myers is considered to be the boogeyman.
