Death in Houston High Society Part 1: The Murder of Elaine Goss

In 1968, Elaine and Dean Goss opened up the Holiday Dinner Theater in Houston, Texas. The place was a huge hit and so was Dean Goss, who quickly became known as “The Jackie Gleason of Houston.” Dean was so big, in fact, that he and Elaine’s establishment was renamed The Dean Goss Dinner Theater. For a decade, Elaine and Dean lived the high life, hobnobbing with socialites, celebrities, and politicians. But after the theater went out of business, things spiraled downward. Then in 1982 came the unthinkable when Elaine Goss was murdered in the couple’s home in the Meyerland neighborhood of Houston. But it would be far from the last slaying of someone close to Dean Goss, and many, perhaps unfairly, began calling him by a different nickname, “The Bluebeard of Houston.”
