George Coulam, ‘Ren Faire’ Docuseries Subject and Founder of Texas Renaissance Festival, Dies at 87
George Coulam, the founder of the Texas Renaissance Festival who was documented in the HBO docuseries 'Ren Faire,' has died. He was 87.
Coulam’s death comes less than two weeks after a Grimes County District court ordered the Texas Renaissance Festival must be sold, ending a nearly two-year civil case. In the decision, Judge Gary W. Chaney of the 506th state District Court, also ordered that Coulam must pay over $23 million in damages to cover attorney’s fees and money lost by the fest’s buyer. The festival settled a 2021 lawsuit filed by a former employee, who claimed that Coulam made her sift through “sugar daddy” websites to facilitate his romantic life.
