Ah close, you're Canadian, that's not so bad. Still, Halloween is not something to celebrate over here - it's just an excuse for kids to vandalise your property sadly.

Also.I'm not disagreeing with you as to the appearance of these objects which is due to a camera effect.One good point is that you never see side views if they are disc shaped.Probably orbs.Also The notches always appear to be in the 1 & 7 o'clock
positions.These still appear to be intelligently controlled because some of these objects appear to speed up,slow down and alter their flightpath.Check this vid out :

Yes, well spotted on the fact that none of the objects ever appear edge-on (clue #1), and again well spotted re the notches (clue #2). Both of these clues are actually evidence (there's more) for the objects being close to the camera and therefore way out of focus. This renders any small object disc-like (called a 'circle of confusion'), and the notches follow an FOV dependant pattern. I have a video which breaks down this pattern if you'll care to look.

The explanation for the notches is that a circle of confusion will always have features determined by the design of the lens, and if there are any obstructions around its periphery, they will impinge upon the resultant image. Something like a circlip (aka snap ring) for example. Which parts of the impinging object come into play depends on an object's angle relative to the optical axis.

The movement is also explainable, but i'm not sure it's worth my while. Clues: gravity and drag.
