Best Answer

Grendel's mother is an unnamed swamp-hag, and his father is not mentioned--in the original story. In the new movie 'Beowulf', Grendel's father is portrayed as being a heroin addict and left after beating his mother and molesting Grendel with a rusty spoon.

In the epic poem Beowulf, Grendel is described as a descendant of Cain, the biblical figure who committed the first murder by killing his brother Abel. Grendel's parentage is not explicitly mentioned in the poem.
