Graham Norris Horne: Bracey, Virginia

Episode 139 · Aug 06, 06:59 AM

Graham Norris Horne was 21 years old when he disappeared in rural Virginia. On August 15, 2024, Graham was traveling with a faith-based group when they stopped for gas at a truck stop in Bracey. According to investigators, there was some kind of disagreement. Graham walked away. He didn’t have a phone. He didn’t know the area. And he had no known ties to the community.
But what happened next would turn a missing-person case into something far more disturbing. Weeks later, workers at a church about six miles away noticed a terrible smell coming from an old well. At the bottom, they found Graham.
Investigators would eventually treat his death as a homicide. But questions remain about what happened after Graham left that truck stop—and how he ended up at the bottom of a well outside a church. Was Graham’s death a tragic accident? Did he encounter someone after walking away? And what, if anything, did the people he had been traveling with know about his disappearance?
Listen as we dive into rural Virginia, the case of Graham Norris Horne and how to stay alive on vacation.
