CROWN V COLONY — The Man Who Killed for Company: How Dennis Nilsen Murdered Lonely Men Until the Drains Gave Him Up

Day three of CROWN V COLONY. Garret Fisher trades the House of Horrors for something quieter and somehow worse: a soft-spoken Scottish civil servant in a north London attic. Between 1978 and 1983, Dennis Nilsen — the "Muswell Hill Murderer" — lured at least fifteen lonely young men back to his flat and killed them, he said, so they could never leave him. He kept the remains at home. He got away with it for five years for one reason: he hunted men the world wasn't watching — the homeless, the drifting, the marginalized — and when survivors escaped and tried to report him, a homophobic era refused to believe them. It ended only when the drains at 23 Cranley Gardens backed up and a plumber found human remains. This episode traces who Nilsen was, the men he killed — including 14-year-old first victim Stephen Holmes and several who have never been identified to this day — and the survivors, Douglas Stewart, Paul Nobbs, and Carl Stottor, who finally took the witness stand at his 1983 Old Bailey trial and were believed. Nilsen was convicted of six murders and two attempted murders, given a whole-life order, and died in prison in 2018.
