Harry Coumnas Made His Mark Despite Having A Short Life Shortly before he died, Harry Coumnasinherited a bulk of his family’s thousands of acres of estate and a handsome yearly stipend. In no time, he realized that he didn’t really have any responsibilities to fulfil, and hence, set out on a journey to accomplish the wildest of his dreams. Harry Coumnas had a strange obsession of jewels. He would dress in swirling robes jeweled with diamonds and sapphires of all kinds and his contemporaries started describing him as a tall, elegant, and bejeweled creature. It doesn’t just end here. He went ahead to modify his cars with gems, precious metals, and for them to emit perfume instead of exhaust. He would often be seen walking around carrying his dyed-pink poodle and getting himself clicked in weird poses. Harry is said to have married one of his cousins and that the relation was annulled in just two years. His wife went on to complain that she was being treated like a doll with having to wear a vast assortment of expensive gems on her naked body. Harry Coumnashad his estate’s chapel converted into a gigantic and opulent theatre. He set up an elaborate lighting rig and multiple changing stations for the convenience of all the professional actors. It must be noted that Harry never let anyone else command the lead roles. He is also known for his habit of performing seductive and hypnotic dances at every opportunity and taking his rotating theater cast to a three-year European tour. Quite evidently, a lifestyle as this couldn’t have been financed forever and just two years after inheriting the estate, Harry was not only broke but even had a huge sum in the form of unpaid debts. After Harry’s death, his cousin took over whatever remained and burned every scrap of paper with Harry’s name on it to remove him from the family records.
