Sunday Night Mystery Episode 7, Derek Grain's Halloween Murder

In 1980, on Halloween morning, nurse Sally Isaac made a chilling discovery atop Brandon Hill in Bristol: the battered body of Derek Grain, a mild-mannered visitor to the city.

 

Shockingly, Derek had been bludgeoned to death with a sand-filled traffic cone. Despite being in Bristol for only two months, Derek's last moments were traced to a night of heavy drinking in local nightclubs. Robbery seemed the likely motive, as Derek's jacket was torn off and money stolen from his pockets.

However, the brutality of the murder baffled detectives, who speculated on the possibility of multiple assailants. Despite numerous leads, including sightings of a mysterious red Jaguar and a group of youths, the killer remained elusive. Forensic analysis of the murder weapon and Derek's clothing yielded little evidence.

36 years later, Derek Grain's murder remains unsolved, haunting Bristol as a true Halloween tale of darkness and mystery.
