The Texas Chainsaw Massacre

To leave a message, scroll down the page.

Is the Texas Chainsaw Massacre a true story?

There are many discussions on this point, but the truth is that it is not. Hollywood bills the film as being "inspired by a true story", not even "based on a true story". There was no chainsaw wielding Thomas Hewitt. There was however, a man who skinned his victims and wore their skin. This is the only part of the film that is based on truth.

So what is the truth? If you want to know the inspiration for the film first hand, go to this web page: Texas Chainsaw Massacre uncovered. It is a page all about Tobe Hooper, the man behind the first TCM film. On this page, he says that his inspiration for the film came as he stood in crowds of people next to a chainsaw rack, and had an idea how to get rid of the crowds! The story grew in his mind as he considered the murderer Ed Gein.

Ed Gein was a murderer in Wisconsin in the 1950s. He shot two women. These were the only two people he officially killed. There was talk that he killed others as well, but this has not been proved. He was also a grave robber. He took both his killed and stolen victims home with him and strung them up like deer. He skinned them and gutted them like animals. When the police searched his house, they found many shrunken heads and a body still hanging up. They found skin shirts complete with breasts, skin leggings, and belts decorated with nipples. They also found lamps and chairs made from skin and bones.

Other possibilities There are many people who say that they know the Texas Chainsaw Massacre is true. They remember it, they've seen the files, they know the survivor is in a mental institution. They are wrong. It may be true that they remember an event etc, but it is a different event. Many murders take place and some of them may bare a resemblance to the story of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. But they are not the ones that the story is based on. It is just a coincidence. I am not doubting that what these people say is true, but they do not relate to the Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

Erin in Texas at 2009-09-04 05:21:19
Yes the Texas Chainsaw Massacre is real but it happened in Childress Texas, I know this is true because I grew up hearing these stories from my mom and other people. I have also been to the house in Childress where this happened, also the cafes' would serve human remains as hamburgers. I don't know why everyone thinks it that Ed Gien guy who killed those two women in Wisconson. Come on now.

Marilyn P, as I said further down the page in 2005:
Robert Elmer Kleason was not the inspiration of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. The murders he committed happened after the original film came out. The confusion lies in a British documentary called 'The Real Texas Chainsaw Massacre' all about Kleason. Kleason shot dead two Mormons and then disposed of their bodies cutting them up with a band saw. I don't think their bodies were ever found, but the band saw was. His crimes did take place in Texas, and did involve a saw - but not in the actual murder, only the disposal of the bodies. In reality he doesn't have anything to do with the film Texas Chainsaw Massacre. In fact, his crimes were committed after the original film came out.

they were talking about a man name robert gleeson (i'm not sure of the spelling for his last name). but they say he's the real texas chainsaw massacre. said that he killed some mormons that were trying to help him and they were never seen again! do you know what i'm typing about? mpa

my dad worked at ksp ks state pen in lansing ks 1980-1994 and knew the man knowen as texas chainsaw man at the time i was a young teen and had a thousand questions my father just was not a nosy man and said he was just a man who was quite and kept to himself


brandi in at 2009-06-20 23:15:29
trust me texas chainsaw massacre is real i know im 13 and just to tell u the last time cops seen him he was in florida the cops casd him write out of texas after he killed over 2hundred people he was boern to be like this and he will never stop so bern him till he gos to hell.


J J Hewitt in Austin, Texas at 2009-06-15 06:12:09
Killings happens, it happens all over the world, but only famous Hewitt that I know here in Austin are the owners of a car dealership. Oh, by the way, for people that are not geographically smart, Travis County is where Austin is at, the state capital of Texas. Also, the most killing done around here are by the Austin Police Department (APD), especially if you are of an ethnic group. To end this message, in the late 1960's to the current time, Austin have experience economic boom so I doubt that anyone was starving especially with numerous soup kitchen like Carlita's all around town.

There is a direct co-relation between how strongly these believe that the TCM happened and the number of spelling mistakes they make.


jennifer in richwoods, mo at 2008-12-22 21:49:58
I am just wondering if the chainsaw massacure is true. My mom just came over to america from germany and she tells me that this massacure is true. This was the first thing she heard on the news when she got off the plane. So tell me in there such people in this world that would do such killings. In the movie Chainsaw massacure they say at the end that this a actual footage when the police officers were killed and they also say that Thomas Hewitt was never found. Please tell me the truth. Thank You

Yes, because the first place he'd go after being in prison for 35 years is back home.


Blake W. in Texas at 2008-10-29 14:57:07
The story is true. My friend has actually been to the house in Vernon, Texas. He told me how the word help was written on the wall in blood. They preserved it in a glass casing. I'm actually headed out there myself next month, By the way, 'leatherface' is still alive and locked up here in Texas. My friend and I joked that the day we visit the house would be the day he escaped. and with my luck who knows.


colten gulotta in Paris, TX USA at 2008-10-16 03:03:15

Gayle in Clacks at 2008-10-08 11:01:00
How could anyone think TCM is real?!! It's about as real as the Blair Witch Project!


Missy Teratophiliac in Under your bed...... at 2008-10-06 21:09:29
Yes Leatherface does exist-I've been having an affair with him for years.
Of cause he doesn't but I find it so amusing to read up on how passionate people get about his existence etc.
A topic that will go on for ever I think.


tony in nrw york at 2008-09-29 07:46:09
the story is true but lots of the stuff that happanes in the move is fake

Bundle... What are we going to do???
All those people who claim that itīs a true story, but no evidence..I was thinking that you, Ed G and I could meet up, write some fake evidences that looks like police-reports and newspaper articles, and then sell them to the believers... ' things will be gained here, the believers will be very excited, and weīll be very very rich, and then give about the truth:-)

Stories that happened before our time Andre? Speak for yourself mate, but you may be surprised to discover (and clearly you will be) that some people are over the age of 35 and that 1973 is not therefore 'before their time'. A large proportion of the population in fact.

There are some things that 'opinion' just doesn't come into. Fact is one of them. Either something happened or it didn't. Whether you think it did or didn't is irrelevant. As I 've said 1973 is not a long time ago, most of the population of the world were alive then. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre does not have legendary status. Films aren't made of horrific incidents less than a year after they happened. The obvious conclusion is it didn't happened. It's merely a film. If it happened, it's interesting you are unable to quote any more concrete evidence than 'Some guy said he saw a bloke that matched Hewitt's description' and 'My uncle told me it was true, so we should all believe him'.


andre johnson in at 2008-09-02 04:48:20
I have almost listened to everyone's opinion and the real thing that happened is. Ed Gein is real and so is Leatherface. This county in texas on route 66 basically ran out of food. The other families in that county left and the only family that was left were the hewitt's family. Now if you would please watch the 2003 remake. Now I've been looking up on this. And there were 2 polices that got murdered on august 20 1973 at 3:20. Now the government saw that it was the most cruelist crime that they decided not to do nothing with and that's why the case now is still open. Watch the movie on important details that they tell because it was true. Now I also heard that the girl that survived did go to the mental hospital and that's why nobody believes her story and they think that the story is fake. There were dead bodies the polices have founded when they found out the case. I'm getting ready to leave but, I'm going to give you 2 reason that is for real a true story: (1) There was this guy that was driving down the street to his uncle house and he said that he saw a man and his face were horribly disfigured and he stopped and the man came to his car and he drove back off and the man hit his car and left a dent in it. Afterwards he found out that the man that hit his car had the same description of the texas chainsaw massacre. (2)Last and not least my uncle told me that it did happened and the police caught him and they put him to rest. I have other family members and friends that were living when the TCM happened and they remebered the story. So the TCM and the ED Gein stories happened but different killers, bio, location, and time. Thank you for your time and please don't get offened because everybody's have their own opinions. Make sure you have the right information before making a decision on stories that happened before our time.


sly316 in tennessee at 2008-08-22 19:54:23
he is locked up in the maximum security facility in texas.and yes for now he is still alive.for now anyway's till old age get's him.

Ladies and gentlemen. Please keep your comments relevant. Please do not insult each other. Please do not insult each other's countries - that is racism and will not be tolerated.

Unfortunately, many people are not good at spelling. On this page, this frequently doesn't relate to where they come from. However, it's irrelevant, so please just accept it, laugh inwardly to yourself at some of the mistakes if you want, but don't tell us all about it.
I've not moderated you to death Ed G. Not yet. But if the off-topicness continues, moderation will follow...


Ed G in at 2008-06-26 00:07:16
As someone from England where real English was born, I will just say that in some ways US English *is closer* to the English that first crossed the Atlantic from here than modern British English is. The '-ise' endings on words like 'sympathise' and the -u- in words like 'colour' have been invented by us Brits since that time. The word 'gotten', which feels ugly to us, and which is never used in British English, did use to be - it's not been invented by the Americans.

So a lot of the things that US English does that are thought of as corruptions of the original English just aren't.

On the other hand, the US's preference for simple rather than complex tenses is new (for example 'I just came over from the States' rather than 'I have just come over from the States', or 'You got mail' instead of 'You have got mail').

How off topic is this? I expect to be moderated to death.


michael in denmark at 2008-06-25 20:47:28
Xtina... Youīre so right, itīs not true...But for Godīs sake, not all of us comes from an english talking contry.. And please Xtina, living very close to England, and the real english language, I know for a fact that the american people donīt speak english... your so called 'english' are so far away from english...so be kind to others in here, even if they canīt spell it right, they have the right to tell what they believe in....


Xtina in Arizona at 2008-06-20 20:00:10
You all need to go back to school to learn basic english and SPELLING for god's sake. Who let you guys loose into the world? Crawl back into your caves before you hurt yourselves! It is SO NOT TRUE. Do you not understand the basic principles of FICTION? Do you not understand the basics of marketing and the movie industry. They made the 'bonus dvd' to make it 'seem' more real for entertainment purposes only! Don't be so naive.Grow-up. Get an education. Don't believe everything you hear, see or read. People can say, film, and write anything they desire and sell it, post it, print it, broadcast it, even sky-write it if they so choose. IT DOESN'T MAKE IT TRUE!!!

covr in San antonio texas at 2008-06-06 23:29:49
the chainsaw massacre is part fiction, its a movie, what do u expect it to be real? no they twisted the story from the original version for the viewers pleasure.

if u want real horror come down to San Antonio and pay a visit to the old abandoned insane asylum...


Bundle in at 2008-06-05 14:08:50
Tam. The footage at the end of the film is not real. It is cleverly produced to look authentic, but it is not. Ed Gein was not in the house when they searched it, he'd already been arrested. Ed Gein did use the skin from bodies to make items, but as far as I know he didn't skin a face and wear it. The film Texas Chainsaw Massacre is not actually about Ed Gein, it is only based (very loosely) on him. If you want to know about Ed Gein himself, I'd recommend the book Deviant by Harold Schechter. It's very comprehensive.


Tam in Australia at 2008-06-05 11:33:55
Hello.. Im just sending this email.. As there was speculation that Ed Gein was still alive. By reading the infomation it has confirmed that he is not. I watched the film Texas Chainsaw Massacue. My query is, In the film it showed a live film from police.. My question is when they were in the celler or basement why did the tape go blank.. It was as if Ed Gein was hiding in another room and killed those policemen whilst they were showing the veiwers. I just want to know if that is true or it was made up as the rest of the movie besides that one section, where Ed Gein skined somebody's face an wore it.


George in NY USA at 2008-06-03 18:03:35
I believe that the events are true,that the cops,try and protect the familys of the victoms,and the killers familys,so they are not harmed,harrassed.But there haas been canibalism,all threw out history,we don't find it aceptable in our country.Thank God!!But there are always those few that go the wrong way,there mind is gone,missing remorse,feeling any feelings that a person feels.so i believe that it can and will happen again and again....

In the movie at the end they give facts based on the crime. names,dates,how are they not true.they say they never cought the man that it was the Hewitts???


j martin in United Kingdom at 2008-05-17 10:56:39
First heard about the Texas Chainsaw Massacre when I was five and always thought that it was based on a true even how interesting to find out. Just recently on Channel 4 here in the UK they showed the Texas Chanisaw Massacre with Marilyn Burns shame only caught the end of it. Is it on Dvd can see it?


cierra in Home at 2008-05-14 22:07:33

le-roy budvis in lala land at 2008-05-07 15:40:15
his chainsaw in that movie is cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hahahaha-jk


George in New York USA at 2008-05-06 02:00:52
I once saw a film Black and White about Ed Gein in which they claimed that it was the true Texas Chainsaw Masacre the truth is that it resembled 3 movies put into one 1) Texas Chainsaw, 2) Psyco and 3)Hanibal Lechter so the truth is to be seen as I see it it may be fiction but what is really scarry about this movie (TCM) is not what the movie portrais but the fact that however inprobable never impossible. So Fact or fiction it does not matter the truth is that it cold be fact if not in the past in the future good example the submarine in 20,000 leagues under the sea 100 yrs. before the Korean Kobukson the predesesor to the modern day submarine as well as space ships again 100 years before space travel. These were thought of as impossible but are now a reality. They bill the movies as inspired or even based on true events even if this is not true but the truth is you never Know. Jack the ripper is prove who knew that such grusom killers can, have or would ever exist.

hi i like your story,but i just want to know if the hirl who survived is still alive and what happened to the killer is he alive?


OPHELYA CLARK in LIBRARY at 2008-04-24 22:47:49
i really like this movie. i thought it was great. will
there be a part 2. i think you should make some more movies.
try to make them scarer than ever. make us shiver in our
clothes. make us wet ourselves. then you can make some
funny or maybe even some cool ones. alot of people really like these kinds of moves. peace out. i have to go attend to my boyfriend.


Ed G in at 2008-04-20 23:37:52
Sarah, nothing happened. The makers of the film made it up, and have said so.


Sarah in england at 2008-04-20 18:45:39
Will we ever really find out What happened?


sam in ohio at 2008-04-11 15:16:35

DeNisSe VallEJO in EAGLE PASS at 2008-04-08 22:13:06
well me and my friend check out the internet and it says it was true so it was weird


michael in denmark at 2008-04-08 18:31:08
@Bundle... youīre right, thatīs what they called him, couldnīt get that name back in my mind....well,..that was till you wrote it:-)


Bundle in at 2008-04-07 09:25:55
Michael, Buffalo Bill was the name of the hunted killer in Silence of the Lamb - and he was indeed the one inspired by Ed Gein.


michael in denmark at 2008-04-06 09:42:26
Cody: Youīre right in every thing you wrote in here..


michael in denmark at 2008-04-06 09:40:26
Junior!...first of all how old are you? Second give us just a single proof that says itīs true, like a newspaper article, a police report or anything similuar.. You canīt get that anywhere, do you know why??? itīs fiction, just another simple fiction story, that was inspired by Ed Gein, so was Psycho by Hitchcock, and the killer they hunt in Silence of the Lamb (Hannibal the Cannibal) was also inspired by Ed Gein... Take a good look at those 3 movies, and then find the documentary movie that tells all about Ed Geins life, and you will see the parallel lines between them, and still they are all different.. And the chainsaw is only a part of the film, cause the drector of TCM was out shopping, waiting in line, and spotted a chainsaw, and started thinking what it would look like if he took it and cut everyone in the line with it...If you have anything Junior that will proove otherwise Iīll rest my case, if not then stop people in here...


sam in school at 2008-04-02 18:11:55
yes it is, thanks cody


Junior in Crowell at 2008-04-02 18:08:06

cody t in texas at 2008-04-01 22:50:49
jose im sorry to say but he died in wiconsin prison in 1968.in the very first movie he used a hamlitt 357. but all ed gein used was a knife.most people hear think the remake was true but sorry to say but that is a lye.i know thats sad but it looked real and thats what maters ow plus the scares lol.please talk back to me.


cody t in texas at 2008-04-01 22:44:37
the movie is not true. but it was inspired by ed gein that dug up fresh graves and made a sex chainge witch means a womans skin suit. he also made a bealt made of femal nipples,proped up a chair with child bones and used a skull for a soup bowl.its nasty. for more info talk back.bye the way the chainsaw was a hamlett 357.that was made in 1978.plus i did see the house,its old and calapsing.

michael in denmark at 2008-01-27 19:04:10
Malika: thereīs no real story in the film, itīs all fiction except a few things that was an inspiration from the killer Ed Gein, the movies Psycho and Silence of the lambs are build on the same killerīs facts, and yet none of the movies are similuar....


Malika in london at 2008-01-27 14:16:00
this story is real.... but can you tell me this in detail!


michael in denmark at 2008-01-23 22:37:23
Hiedihi.....yes I know all of that stuff....


Hiedihi in England at 2008-01-22 14:43:56
Does anyone know where this chainsaw person is now or what happened to him if this story is true?
And does anyone know if their are any evidence filed away on this man?


michael in denmark at 2008-01-20 20:38:22
please shanita! show us just one of those newspaper aticles....:-)


shanita in california us at 2008-01-19 21:48:36
hell yes the story is true if you think it isnt is was all over the news when i was 11 years oldit happened on aug 18 1973


Amy calderon in Visalia California at 2008-01-18 16:49:15
why would he do such a thing was he angry at some one or did they treat him bad for him to grow up and kill!!


noemi calderon in california at 2008-01-18 16:45:26
Oh my god that is so scary I would not be able to expierance something like that.


michael in denmark at 2008-01-09 18:19:12
Ssempala, please let me know where youīve seen that...
If you go to the writer/directorīs page using the link above or please search for the movie at imdb.com and they all claim that itīs pure fiction...but if you have any kind of evidence that says otherwise, let us know:-)


Ssempala Joseph in am in Uganda/EastAfrica at 2008-01-09 07:49:58
why did the writter or the director of that film said that it is based on true story though you still have doughts that it was not real? But i loved the movie.


michael in denmark at 2007-12-30 18:48:28
@stacie...try saw 1-4 they are great...
@Nigel Thomas Brown Hewitt is a fiction figure and never ever existed for real..sorry to inform you:-)


Nigel in Doncaster at 2007-12-30 01:51:51
do Thomas Brown Hewitt. is in prison or what? but where is he now??? cos i didn't find information about him so lets me know ok thank you


stacie in ontario canada at 2007-12-29 23:32:09
if there's anyone out there who loves being scared, can you suggest any awsome horror flix? NO ghost stories please! i only get off on stuff that could really happen. cheers!


stacie in ontario canada at 2007-12-29 23:20:47
it's obvious that texas chainsaw was derived from actual cases, AND hollywood movie writers. being a rabid horror movie and true crime fan myself, all i have to say is, i ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!!! maybe this is why there's such a huge market in sex and violence? it's for gore-freaks like me who eat it up!! (no pun intended lol) now if only there were more terrifying wonderful masterpieces like the new texaschnsaw movies, high tension and wolf creek. want a get freaked out?? try sitting through those 3 flicks in one night. also props to saw1,2,3 and 4.


Ms Teratophiliac in U.K at 2007-12-29 20:09:49
No it's not a true story but appears very real due to the good acting & documentary feel as well as the raw power. Just as a lot of vampire fanatics believe that vampires exist or they themselves are the undead.


michael in denmark at 2007-12-26 23:16:11
robert simpson... please, thereīs lot of stuff that people claims are real, and if someone claims anything is real they have to come up with some evidence or proof that theyīre right.... if i claim that you murdered your neighbour, wouldnīt you love me to come up with some evidence that iīm right before you get convicted...itīs the same thing my friend, the one that claims that something is true and for real has to come up with the evidence....I claim that this never happend, and therefore itīs impossible for me to bring up the evidence, if I could come up with evidence that an event didnīt take place and left no trace...I would be the best magician in the world...Harry Potter go home!!!! itīs the people who claimed that itīs true who are responsible for bringing up evidence...but they havenīt been able to do it so far.... and until they do, I wonīt believe that it happend...give is some police-reports, give us just one policeman who can show us something from the case...and Iīll reconsider...but until then I say itīs fiction and nothing else.....:-)


robert simpson in england at 2007-12-26 17:02:06
i just wanna say that how can you say that it wasnt real you have no proof either way do you


mr Niceguy in sweden at 2007-12-25 20:23:01

Just wanted to wish you a merry christmas mate:-)


Ed G in at 2007-12-13 23:24:13
Most murderers aren't serial killers either. Most murders are either domestic or committed within a circle of social contacts or friends. Murderers in general don't go on and just kill and kill till they get caught.


michael in denmark at 2007-12-12 20:26:33
laura.... thatīs not true, if the person is a total psycho, you might be right, but in the case of soldiers etc, you never get use to it, and thereīs no difference at all from the first kill to number 5, only that you know how sick you feel afterworths... no matter what some people claims or what youīve seen in films this is the real facts.... ask any vietnam warrior, you should be able to find one if youīre from US, and they will agree with me on this point.......


laura in georgia at 2007-12-12 15:04:20
i personally believe that killing people is like an obsession. once they do it once, they get use to it and begin not having any guilt. they get tired of the world and their terrible words and actions. tired of being bullied. had enough. and simply, go crazy.


michael in denmark at 2007-12-07 16:42:35
but my dear lacey...it didnīt happen, so feel free to be well again:-)

michael in denmark at 2007-12-02 00:54:32
quite a nice respons Ed G


Ed G in at 2007-12-01 23:27:05
Anay, you say that the movie is true because it comes with a bonus pack which is true. But how do you know the bonus pack is true? If you can just know it's true, you'd also be able to just know that the movie is true. Having the bonus pack doesn't prove anything that the movie on its own doesn't already prove.

All you really know is that the film and bonus pack are both fiction, or they're both true. But you can't prove that the film is true by reference to the bonus pack, because if the film makers can make a fictional film, they can make a fictional bonus pack too.


anay in nevada at 2007-12-01 22:57:48
I have the movie of both ur talking about ant the massacre is true because the movie came with a bonos pack and has real evedence (photos) about it and a location so i dont know if what u say is true but im telling u 2 think about it then write back in a ordally manner ,thanks


michael in denmark at 2007-12-01 19:08:40
hmm Miles, maybe...and only maybe you should try and take some acting classes, and go to a few hundred auditions, maybe then you got a chance of acting, but itīs gonna be just a bit difficult to get you casted in the chainsaw mascara, and there ainīt much of a chance of getting you into the chainsaw massacks, and totally impossible to get you an acting role in The Texas Chainsaw massacre....sweet child got many names, and still itīs damn difficult to become a serious good well-known world famous actor, only because the film is already done....oh stupid hollywood, what are we gonna do about it.....?


miles in ohio at 2007-12-01 18:15:57
i do think the chainsaw massacare is the coolest movie ever i want to be in the movie so bad i think i would be a pretty good acter PLEAS.........


in miami at 2007-11-22 20:09:44
i think that was great but it need`ed a little more action in it


Chanisty in Birmingham at 2007-11-21 19:54:37
I Totally Love The Texas Chainsaw Masscare!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


michael in denmark at 2007-11-19 21:01:41
Please Todd, be my guest and sue me.... I wrote my emailadress here, so just contact me and Iīll sent you my adress and phone number, together with my lawyers name and adress...youīre most welcome to try and do it... by the way are you going to run this case in caught by yourself cause I really doubt that any lawyers in the USA will be stupid enough to take it for you.... Looking forward to see you at the trial......


Ed G in at 2007-11-18 23:13:55
I'm not surprised you don't sue, Todd. Not surprised at all.


todd in illonois at 2007-11-18 15:16:10
i know for instance that the texas chainsaw massacre actually happened because my grandpa was a texas ranger and him and his deputies were the ones who brought thomas hewitt to justice. and the survivers who happen to be erin and kemper, are now liveing in ranger,texas and have two grandchildren and children. so if you for one second think that it didnt happen!!!!!!ahhhh im surprised i dont sue you guys!!!!!!!!


alicia in bartow fl at 2007-11-17 16:34:08
I cant beleave some one could have that much of a nerve to put those women through that. Who could have so much nerve? I hate the fact to see the texas massacre and think he did some thing close to this. What I want to know possibly is the name of the grave yards if possible. And the graves robbed. Or if the victums still have living desindants.


joey in australia at 2007-11-17 05:53:45
i really do belive he was real he may even still be out there.


joey in australia at 2007-11-17 05:49:52
you say the 'survivor' is in a mental institution, how do people know if that is a ture? then people come 4ward thx joey
p.s so t.c.m isn't a ture story dam jessica biel was so good in it


daniel morgan in alabama at 2007-11-10 13:35:33
ne body could just watch the special features on chainsaw massacer and know that im originally from so i already but i do appreciate your web site because i love studying on movies and events such as this


Ed G in at 2007-11-08 11:54:01
What I constantly notice, and you might appreciate this, Michael, having learnt English as a foreign language, is the number of people who don't know what 'massacre' means, and who think it's someone who massacks, as if it were spelt 'massacker'. And then they ask here if the massacre is still alive.


michael in denmark at 2007-11-07 21:12:33
Bundle...youīre absolutely right...itīs amazing, some of the posts leads me think that they leave a question, and think the phone will ring, and a nice guy from the internet will read the hole true story for them at bedtime..... I guess theyīre just lazy


Erin Wyatt in Hanford ca at 2007-11-06 18:39:57
Is the Hewitt house still up or did they tare it down? . are we allowed to go in side the house if it is still up?


Bundle in at 2007-11-02 09:36:39
Michael, it's because no one reads the blurb at the top and no one reads each other's posts. They just come here, think ooh somewhere I can ask if it's real, and ask it. And go away none the wiser, because they've read nothing and don't even realise it's not a realtime conversation until they get no reply after 2 minutes.


bobo in in quincy at 2007-11-02 00:46:13

Ed G in at 2007-10-30 23:19:45
Hi Michael. Nothing's changed while you've been gone!


michael in denmark at 2007-10-30 21:38:15
To all of you misbelievers out there...yes itīs true, and yes I still kill people with a chainsaw, but I relocated to europe...:-) COME ON GUYS!!!! itīs okay to believe itīs true, cause you all feel that the footage seems real, but think twice! In the movie alien, a freakin monster comes out the stomich of a man, to me that seemed awful real aswell, but I know it wasenīt... All you wanna know about the truth is linked above, or you can just read some of Ed Gīs postings, he seems to be the one who knows the most in here.... Remember silence of the lamb, or Psycho? they where inspirated(hmm spelling?) by the same killer as TCM, and yet the movies and stories are so different.... try google Ed Gein and youīll find the inspiration to the films...tada


Julie futch in at home at 2007-10-29 15:02:14
people at school say he is real and i don't know if that is true or not.I go to Start Scool butface by turd nugget.


anna in florida at 2007-10-28 22:52:37
Ummm...Im like 13 and fyi the TCM is real. Thats what I think...By the way Thomas Hewitt is sooo not ugly. (ny in the very resent one, without the leather on, but the bandeges) LOL think about that!


Crystal in Wisconsin at 2007-10-23 23:46:53
hey i hace a Question for ya? if this all happend in Wisconsin then why is it called Texas chainsaw massace? please answer right away it is for a class!! thanks

jill harrowell in hull at 2007-10-07 00:44:39
i am very intrested in the texas chainsaw ,its so unbeliveable what happened ,,the films that have been made are brilliant i have seen all three and they are all just as good ,but this is good reading ,can ya tell me is there a actual book out about this thanx ,,,xxxx


Ed G in at 2007-10-01 12:01:25
But Victoria, no one here has ever found a single book on the subject, in a library or anywhere else. If you can find one yourself, lots of people here would be grateful to know the title and author.


victoria in mass at 2007-10-01 06:52:06
from 1969 -1973 the hewitt family murdered 33 people across the state of texas..if you need to know more go to youre public library and you will find several books on the subject...... check it out


Dahlia in MA at 2007-10-01 01:48:26
This isn't about the TCM, but more about the murderer who inspired it. I know that a lot of Ed Geins problems seemed to have come from his strange relationship with his mother. I have heard that Ed Gein became so obsessed with her, that he killed her. Is this true?


taylor in houston texas at 2007-09-27 17:21:53
could this be considered a witch hunt???


Shalini in Guyana at 2007-09-26 02:46:16
what really happen to the massacre chainsaw mistory


margaret in texas at 2007-09-24 22:13:47
SO is the movis true or not u say no but others where i live say yes.. so how far did you go to investigate your data.. maybe you didn't check all ur resorces just maybe there was a texas chainsaw massacre.. i heard that he was once held in gonzales,tx. jail is that true or not is he real or fake...where did yall get the footage from the film at the end where the officers are walking through the house filming it is that true or fake? If fake very nice... i give yall that.. Well done...

in the recent film, four teens met demise. they say it's true but you say it isnt...tell me all there is to know about the events that inspired the texas chainsaw massacre..i'm really interested.


Fran in Arizona at 2007-09-12 23:10:39
Back in the late 70s, my sisters and i went to go see The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and were horrified, to say the least. My brother n law was born and raised in Texas, he says the story is true about the chainsaw murders w/ the teenagers. His father verrified it and they seemed sincere about it. Could you tell me if there was a similar happening with a chainsaw in Texas?


john in carlisle at 2007-09-09 20:12:09

david stubbs in the dalles oregon at 2007-08-21 23:55:47
I would like the real story


Melissa in TEXAS! at 2007-08-16 21:42:33
i believe every word of this... my friend try to scare me into thinking it was all true and once i saw the end of the movie where it told you what happened i was sure what to believe... i still think it's kinda freaky though...


Pauline Abel in Hopedale,labrador at 2007-08-12 05:45:23
It really scares me to know that there is someone out there in texas that murders human being and wear their skins.just to think of it gives me the goose bumps..Do you think it can be solved?


Ed G in at 2007-08-12 00:28:30
Aberforth & Alecto, you have more in common than just writing 'girl' as 'irl'. Neither of you puts a space in after your punctuation marks. Tom too. Not sure about Alejandro. And you all turn up in the same hour. Uncanny. It's almost as if you're the same person!


karina cs in in fort worth tx. at 2007-08-10 15:55:14
yo quiciera que tradugeran esta movie en espanol pa entender mejor la historia y creo que no es verdadera esta movie

Bundle in at 2007-08-08 09:23:51
Anna - 'the chainsaw maskaker was real, almost! didn't u read upabove'! Not sure what you read upabove, but it definitey says that the chainsaw massacrer was not real. It says that in no uncertain terms - in the very first sentence. It is not almost real, according to above, but definitely not real, loosely based on Ed Gein, who is real.


anna in wisconsin at 2007-08-06 22:16:37
and jenny person, the chainsaw maskaker was real, almost! didn't u read upabove?!?!?!?!?!?


anna in wisconsin at 2007-08-06 22:13:20

Thalia in El Paso Tx... If youīre from Texas you should have paid more attention in school, there ainīt nothing in the history books about the texas chainsaw massacre, and thatīs a good reason... Itīs fiction, use the links above and youīll discover the real truth about this movie, Jenny is absolutly right about this


naomi in spfld at 2007-07-23 15:51:59
this is the true story so how come this is the only time i have ever heard a story of this nature and there is a whole bunch of texas chainsaw massacre movies and thjis right here is coming out from what i can tell in 2007


Thalia in El Paso,TX at 2007-07-22 21:17:42

'Physco' is another common spelling mistake.

Why is it yall sit on the computer and talk about murders, are yall physco


Michael in Denmark at 2007-06-27 14:58:39
To Ed G... Iīm surprised that you havenīt figured the 'geins' out yet.... If you notice how many different stories that has been told on this page, that really explains it... the answer is: Ed Gein was cloned, and thereīs one in each state in america...:-) lol


Ed G in at 2007-06-24 23:22:57
His name was Gein, not Geins. Amazing how many people call him Geins on this page.


moroni in dallas,tx at 2007-06-22 02:33:32

ed geins died in a prison hospital he had a mental issueds he live in la crosse,wisconsin


moroni in dallas,tx at 2007-06-22 02:20:12
look this never happened in tx so the people in wisconsin ill get out of that state if i were youll!


moroni in texas at 2007-06-22 02:02:30
this all happened at wisconsin Ed geins was the one who kill the people but that is dead!!


jazmine in tijuana at 2007-06-21 04:36:11
i think the movie was terrifing but for it not to be as it is, is really not far for people to know something not true of something based on a true movie and them tio put something else not true its just not right
Well what i thought of the movie is really scary but reaaly cool


Natasha in Denmark at 2007-06-19 03:00:47
I'm new at this so can some tell me if this is a place to ask questions or talk about the tcm? I kinda think the tcm is real but I'm not shure I alwased thouth it was until I got on this website and every one is saying it's about ed gein and know I'm confused. someone please anser me like ed gein or micheal. ( sorry about the tybos)

Courtney Stites in Niles MI, at 2007-05-30 12:51:02
Did he had friend?


michael in denmark at 2007-05-29 21:50:08
Lizy in london... I would describe him as a psycho, and a sociopath... Ed gein, that is... the film is pure fiction, but the idea came from amurderer named ed gein, he was also the inspiration for psycho and silence of the lambs(hannibal the cannibal)....


lizy in london,uk at 2007-05-29 18:49:21
i mean!how a person can be so pathetic at his thoughts.
is he psycopath or wht................can anyone tell me the descriptive case?

i live a short distance from kingsland where the house they used in the original film still stands as a restaurant or something. i haven't been there yet, but i'll check it out soon. have you been to it?


Ed G in at 2007-05-26 23:50:06
William, there are no police files. The massacre is a work of fiction.

Jessica in MI at 2007-05-23 14:18:30
i just wanted to know if the Massacre is really real and if there is any real evidence?


michael in denmark at 2007-05-17 18:49:32
lisa... itīs not true, so if youīre going to do a project on the texas chainsaw massacre, youīll end up with pure fiction.. on the other hand you could instead do a project on Ed Gein, heīs a convicted murderer that the texas chainsaw massacre is loosely based upon. cheers


lisa in genoa at 2007-05-17 02:32:17
how do u no this is true tell us more info please
im doing a project on the chain saw masica


michael in denmark at 2007-05-16 20:16:03
worm b.. your friend might be telling the truth, but itīs not the same leatherface...


worm b in tx at 2007-05-14 22:33:37
my friend said he was locked upwith leather face


michael in denmark at 2007-05-14 17:09:21
It sure was... but itīs been a long time since thereīs been anything worth reading, itīs nice to see that bundle is aware of the truth, and wanna share it with other guests online... Iīm a bit nervous for that Jimmy in Texas tho... he really should get to bed soon and catch up sme sleep that poor guy...


Ed G in at 2007-05-13 17:54:13
I thought Bundle's comment was great, Michael ;-)


Michael in denmark at 2007-05-13 09:57:27
Hallo Ed G.... Nice to see youīre back again... itīs been quite slow in here lately, no discussions, and no great comments...


Ed G in at 2007-05-13 00:18:32
How long had that been going on, Jimmy?


Jimmy in Texas at 2007-05-12 21:10:49
Thank god he isn't real because I get 2 hours of sleep evryday because he scares me, but I can sleep now

chris ford in Hartsville TN at 2007-05-10 20:39:41
did it really happen and is he still alive


Bundle in at 2007-05-09 23:30:00
Sheri, you are indeed confused! The Texas Chainsaw Massacre film is a fiction, loosely based on the story of Ed Gein. Ed Gein did not massacre people. He killed two women only, and dug up the bodies of 10 women for his own gratification. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre's main character was called Thomas Hewitt, so when you talk about Ed, I can only presume you are referring to Ed Gein. Ed Gein did not have a little sister. He had a brother called Henry, who was older than him but died about 10 years before Ed's murders in suspicious circumstances. Ed was in his 40s when he murdered his victims, and his mother had been dead for several years, so it is impossible that he had a 6-year-old sister. If, of course, you actually mean Thomas Hewitt - again, the Texas Chainsaw Massacre is just a film and not true, and so you really shouldn't worry about his sister possibly being a potential psychopath as well.


Sheri Lawson in in school at 2007-05-09 15:32:48
I remember watching a document on tv of the film and it said that Ed had a little sister who was only 6 at the time of the 'massacre' then in theory wouldn't that girl still be alive and have some behavior like her older brother which couldn't that mean we have another sick and twisted killer waiting to strike like Ed or maybe she already has.Message me back I'm confused about this. Thanks


Sheri Lawson in Amarillo, Texas at 2007-05-09 15:26:15
Were is the actual location of the Massacre. Not were they filmed the movie but the actual place were these events accured. I honestly have to say I do beleive that the Massacre happened there is more proof saying it did happen than it didn't.


michael in denmark at 2007-05-01 09:29:57
William, you canīt sue them, itīs only based on a true story (ed gein), lots of films gives you scientific informations, but a lot of them arenīt facts, example the da vinci code, and many others... you have to remember, that films are made to entertain, otherwise it should have been a documentary... I do understand why youīre confused, but you canīt do anything about it, like the old movie jaws, shows how intelligent the great white is, chasingīpeople and so on, but that dosenīt mean a shark would do it in real life, and that film also came up with dates and places etc...So forget about it, and just enjoy the laughs and thrills when you watch it... the director must be the winner, since people do believe itīs true, and some are scared that heīs still out there... the crew did a good job on this film...


william fitzpatrick in new zealand at 2007-05-01 00:56:56
please email me back as i am very cunfused os how the producers of the movie can get away with lying to thier audiences on something that never happined!

thanks


william fitzpatrick in new zealand at 2007-05-01 00:44:57
ok i understand that the texas chainsaw massacre never happined and is inspired by ed gein. one thing i dont understand is how did hollywood or the producers of the movie get away with lying to thier audience in the film when they said that leatherface was real and that they found evidence of a chainsaw and even found the home of where the family lived??? i know they said all this just to make money but coudnt you sue them for lying? because they lied to a lot of people!!!!!


jeannette in texas at 2007-04-30 00:41:42
I think The Texas Chainsaw Massacare was one of the best movies ever made. In total how many did he actually kill? Did he ever kill any children?


J M in U.S.A. at 2007-04-30 00:23:13
Also, the director, Tobe Hooper, came up with the idea for the use of a chainsaw while in a crowded and busy department store, imagining that it would clear the room when fired up. Eventually, he put two and two together, and viola', 'The Texas Chainsaw Massacre' was conceived!


J M in U.S.A. at 2007-04-30 00:18:54
I know some ol' boys down in Texas that think 'The Texas Chainsaw Massacre' was real and also think 'Leatherface' was (and may still be) real. But in truth, Ed Gein was in fact the inspiration for not only 'Leatherface' but also 'Buffalo Bill' from 'The Silence of the Lambs', as well as 'Norman Bates' from 'Psycho'. The number of deaths from '69 to '73 are purely fictional accounts of an exaggeration based on actual accounts of a Wisconsin farm boy's brief but shocking rampage...


gabby in school at 2007-04-27 19:49:50


william fitzpatrick in new zealand at 2007-04-26 10:31:47
if the texas chansaw massacer film was inspired on true events from Ed gein in wisconsin in the 1950s then why does it say in the film that there where 33 deaths of people in texas from 1969 to 1973????? they said this in the latest film 'the texas chainsaw massacer:the beggining' please email me and try give me a answer as i am very confused? thanks


michael in denmark at 2007-04-22 13:38:42
chanlere... tommy is easy to find, he made a lot of movies since the tcm... itīs fiction my friend, and nothing else, it ainīt more real than aliens or terminator.. sorry to tell you, but thatīs the truth


chanlere in newhampshire at 2007-04-22 13:03:14
i think the texes chain saw massacre was one of the most horrifying murders accross the country and to this day one of them is still out there this day 'will tommy ever be found'


michael in denmark at 2007-04-20 20:14:08
chante: the fastest and probably the best way to unsolve this mysterie, is to use the link on top of this page, and read what the director says about the film..


chante in lompoc,cali. at 2007-04-20 19:10:23
can you give me any information you have on the texas chainsaw massacre that would either prove the story true or untrue.


michael in denmark at 2007-04-20 11:34:20
insane zane... Iīm from denmark


michael in denmark at 2007-04-20 11:33:35
J Lay... where are ed g wrong, and Iīm right??? donīt follow you bro... cause Ed G and I both agree that this is pure fiction, based on ed gein, just like psycho was based on ed gein...


J LAY in at 2007-04-20 10:35:04
ed.g you are wrong michael is right


j lay in at 2007-04-20 10:29:31
yes bruce


j lay in at 2007-04-20 10:25:01
it is true


Angela in NC at 2007-04-19 17:19:10
for all those who believe this is real...did't your mom tell you not to believe everything on t.v and movies.
there is no chainsaw killer from the movie...
the movie was 'based' on a true story...not a true story on all.....


Ed G in at 2007-04-18 23:21:01
Raymond, those clips come from the same place the rest of the film came from. It was made using a film crew and some actors on a set. They're not live clips.


raymond schultz in dallas,texas at 2007-04-18 22:07:56
at the end of the first tcm movie they showed what appeared to be live clips of police entering the basement of the house.if,this story is not true where do those clips come from?


MIKE in in a nice place at 2007-04-18 16:58:16
i would like to see the police reports so i can come up with my own conclution cuz at the end of the newly first movie there was leather face killing someone on an old police video camera??!!?


Insane Zane in Pzyco docter at 2007-04-18 15:17:09
hey Michael in denmark, what country r u from...and do u play RPG on www.white-wolf.com??? U sound like u would make a great storyteller for the world of darkness...IDK if u ever heard of that site before, but i hope u will try it out... maybe i will have the privallige of playin RPG with u...Sorry for any typos


Insane Zane in Looney Bin at 2007-04-18 15:05:10
oh... well why was there a Hewitt house and don't say that ain't real cuz they tore it down in the 80's. And like I asked yesterday, is there really a crazy girl in the crazy house???? Is she still alive? or wut...and so the Ed G. guy IS the real LEATHERFACE????


Brice in WV 50 millvile Quarry Ln. at 2007-04-17 21:59:12
Were all the moves about The Texas Chansaw Masker based on a ture?


michael in denmark at 2007-04-17 17:46:03
insane zane... the reason we talk about ed gein, is because the film, the story and all characters are pure fiction... sorry pal!


Insane Zane in school at 2007-04-17 17:34:29
Everyone keeps talking about this Ed G. guy... I want to know about Leather Face and the Hewitts. So, is there any surviving members of the Hewitt family? Is the crazy girl in the institution is still alive and does she accept visitors.Soooo please give me some clue so I can so what I gotta do....


the in sjdmjfmodmo at 2007-04-16 04:08:35
hi


michael in denmark at 2007-04-15 17:58:45
Actually I started in here, cause I was looking for regular discussions, and I hoped that this would be a good place to get the message out about the fiction-movie.. Now I look at the place once in a while, and hoping someone is asking a true question, and they are serios about knowing the truth.... And it happens, but not to often, but whenever I see one of those questions, I prefer to email them, with a short version of the facts, and a few links, where to start reading about the film, and the late Ed Gein.. And itīs those people that I love to help...
Hope that didnīt contain to many misspellings:-).. I`m not from an english talking contry


Ed G in at 2007-04-15 17:11:02
It's true that no proper discussion happens here except occasionally. But I'm interested in the way people discuss things, the way they look for facts, etc. In the main, people look for facts that back up what they already think, and ignore facts that seem to go against them. In this way, no one ever gets their mind changed. Another interesting thing I've noticed is how quickly people turn to insults in internet chatrooms, in a way that they never would face to face.

That's why I'm still here! It must be similar for you, no? You know the Texas Chainsaw Massacre never happened, so you're not here looking for info about it, like most people are. So what brings you here? For me it's just to witness the way discussions happen, to see how easily false facts can propogate themselves, and that sort of thing.


michael in denmark at 2007-04-15 14:35:22
Ed G... Thatīs fair, but if youīve been here for four years, why are you still in here? You wrote about serios discussions.. but honestly, in the 3 months Iīve been here, Iīve never seen one yet... except from we write eachother:-) just wondering how you keep up the spirit, cause everytime you write/answer someone you never get a respons or a discussion started... even if you ainīt rude...lol


Ed G in at 2007-04-15 11:24:28
I only pick on you when you're rude, Michael, like I do other people here, because there are some serious discussions to be had and being rude gets in the way of it. My other messages to you have been meant kindly enough, and my last message specifically wasn't picking on you. I'm just trying to console you by saying that if you think being here for 3 whole months is going to change anything, then you're overestimating the effect your presence has. Lots of people over the years have come and gone and said what you're saying, and it's never changed anyone's mind. Your early posts here were surprised that no one was listening to you. Don't be. Your presence here has no effect on people who don't want to listen, and that's almost everybody.

And of course I'm not an Ed Gein copycat.


michael in denmark at 2007-04-15 11:08:21
ed g ... am I overestimating???? If thatīs what you wanna call it, when I claimed thatīs almost a hopeless fight to convince people, then okay... but please explain to me, where Iīm overestimating??
And yes you might be right about beeing here for over 4 years, but 90% of the time you only write here to complain or show off.... And for some reason itīs me youīve been pickin` on for some while now... Are you really Ed G copycat... cause it starts to feel creepy...


tiara in im a princess at 2007-04-13 20:50:52
you all might think that chainsaw massacre is a false story but I know it is a true story cause I saw on his movies that he killed a police that was checking out the place where he did all his killing and cutting faces off.
I am one of the people that belive he is real and you need to watch the old one and you will see for yourself that heis real.
If you are scared because he is real and you dont belive me then watch his movies and you will be on my side and know that he is a real man and a real scarey man.


latonia finlayson in tampa fl at 2007-04-13 17:30:30

Ed G in at 2007-04-12 23:59:19
Some of us have been here for four years, Michael! I think you might be overestimating the effect your presence here has!


michael in denmark at 2007-04-12 20:28:39
@Kiki.... THANK YOU! itīs great to see that Iīm not the only one whoīs trying to explain all those lost souls out there what really happend... and youīre right... absolutly nothing happend:-) but Iīm sorry to tell you, Iīve tried explaining it for over 3 months now, and people just donīt wanna believe that the massacre is fiction... donīt how much youīve been reading here, but thereīs actually people whoīs scared that theyīll meet the guy if the go to texas... what do you think of that?... I think itīs amazing


Kiki in Missouri at 2007-04-11 21:55:41
okay...so yes Ed Gein is real. No the Texas Chainsaw Massacre never happened. I have no idea nor account of a massacre in Texas its not recorded because it didnt happen. If there was a massacre in Texas it would have been reported even if they didnt know what happened or who it was. why do you think there are so many open cases still left unsolved...they cant figure out what happened. TCM is based partially on Ed Gein (dead corpses hanging,body parts sporatically...) but Ed Gein only killed older women never boys and it was no massacre he only killed 2 the rest of the body parts found belonged to dead women whos graves he robbed CHOW!!! LOTS OF LOVE 4RM KIKI a country girl with lots of knowledge on Ed Gein and Texas.

michael in denmark at 2007-04-09 08:13:49
Bam!... where do you know it from?.. you just claimed that thereīs nothing about it.... so where do you got your facts from?


Bam in Travis County Texas at 2007-04-06 23:55:35
idk. but i know for a fact it realy happend in travis county texas the reason there's nothing about it is because they don't know what happend that day.


gaby1 in south america at 2007-04-06 20:26:49
why dont they show pictures of the dead people


myia in michigan at 2007-04-06 14:54:20

Bam in Travis County Texas at 2007-04-06 14:30:57
Yes thomas, brown hewitt is real. it did take place in travis county, texas some of the movie was from ed gein and some was from thomas brown hewitt if it was just about ed gein wouldn't have nothing. to do with texas or a chainsaw . and of course there is no proof they don't know what happend that day so and Get over the fact that he is real!!!!


Gabby in none of your matter at 2007-04-03 06:05:31
why did he do this anyway?


Cody mardis in McClaur pa at 2007-04-01 20:57:51
Louise it didnt happen but it was inspired by a guy how dug up graves and cut every thing off and made a suit out of it from flesh

Is The Texas Chainsaw Massacre Still Alive


Alexandra Romero in Dallas Tx. at 2007-03-19 19:22:21


michael in denmark at 2007-03-19 19:04:35
Autumn... Canīt remember where Ed Gein lived, and killed his victims.. do you have any idea when the murders was comitted?... the tcm is fiction al the way... but it still are build on ideas from the murderer ed geinīs life.. so maybe thatīs his house down there..


Autumn in Houston, TX at 2007-03-18 09:53:11
I used to live in Danbury TX near Angleton, TX about 30miles away from there is a restricted area that is protected by a 8ft chainlink fence. If you break in and follow the dirt road you come to a large white house that looks very similar to the house described in the story. Research into the crime history of the area proves several bodies had been recoverd from that adress. Also it is widely known in that area that is where the masacre took place, now it might not have been the actual Texas Chainsaw Masacre but the evidence proves something very close to it happened there.


leila in at work at 2007-03-16 17:16:30
is ther an artical on texas chainsaw masacre, and if there is can i read it. and i was told that when he was a little boy that he was adopted by that crazy family on the movie.


jeffery in brooksville FL. at 2007-03-14 17:28:26
who do you know about him!!!


michael in denmark at 2007-03-14 12:51:57
aiden.... it sells the movie, think about what it did for blair witch project, when they claimed that it was real... and now donīt be surprised my friend.. but all the actors in that movie is still alive and still shooting new movies:-)


Aiden in Canada at 2007-03-14 02:51:47
Okay well;;

Lisa in Nebraska at 2007-03-11 20:53:20
A coincidence, yes. It was based on something though. What I find outraging is that most horrific crimes against humanity like that go undetected, or covered up.
Because if their found out, their made Movie Stars over it. Or the nature of their crimes is too terrifying even for the bravest of law enforcement.


courtney in 2620 El Camino Real sp.60 at 2007-03-10 18:33:51
Hello I thought your movie was really scary. Me and my friend watched it so many times every time we wastched it we still got scared. your movie is really scary.

Did you really see the Teaxas Chainsaw Massicare kill all of them people or did he tape it himself?????????? holla at u later


michael in denmark at 2007-03-10 14:10:59

Ed G in at 2007-03-02 23:49:32
No Michael, it was rude. Accusing someone of not being able to read is rude. Unless they really can't, in which case it's tactless. Either way, it doesn't belong here.


michael in denmark at 2007-03-02 21:09:47
well my dear ed g... if you go back in time, youīll see that iīve posted a lot on this forum trying to explain folks about whats real and whatīs fiction, beside that iīve emailed about 50 people, those who seemed the most seriuos about this history, and informed them about the truth and provided them with dozens of links etc... so if youīre such a great reader of the posts, you probably would have noticed this, and realized that itīs not about beeing rude... more about saying to folks: Wake up for sake...You actually made a comment to me once before, about not getting to excited about a guy who new something about Hewitt... back then you also misunderstood what was written between the lines, and that made it clear to me, that if you post anything in this forum you really have to say it as directly as possible, otherwise thereīs someone who will misunderstand you and correct you no matter what you believe... I know you realize that the movie is fiction and thomas Hewitt ever excisted, not a big time killer in 70īs somewhere in texas anyway, and you must admit that itīs confusing and somehow irritating(donīt know if that was spelled right lol) that a movie maker can scare people that much, so they run around and actually believe that heīs still running around with a chainsaw and will kill them if they gets in his way... ainīt I right..?
So bottom line, it was not to be rude... it was a crying out loud!


Ed G in at 2007-03-02 20:49:36
Michael, there's no need to be rude. Did you read the dozens of posts you've basically just repeated before you posted? Clearly not, or you wouldn't have posted. Did anyone have a go at you about it? No.

Laura... what is the point of writing it down for you... itīs quite clear that you canīt read, cause if you took the time and read the posted comments or the head lines on this site you wouldnīt have asked about it.....


Laura in Oshawa Ontario Canada at 2007-03-01 16:54:07
Where may I find genuine photos of Chainsaw Hewitt , and what is the real story
TY


michael in denmark at 2007-03-01 09:18:17
well cassie... you might got a problem, the dude died for over 20 years ago.... so all thereīs left is the articles about him, and if you can get hold of it, the case files from the police, fbi etc....


cassie in hell at 2007-02-27 17:41:32
i just want to know the real story even though nobody knows it but ed.


Theresa Smith in Alberta,Canada at 2007-02-25 04:54:49
It is a very disturbing story. In the special features of 'The Beginning' movie, the filmmakers make it sound like it's a true story. They're pretty convincing. On the other hand, I have not been able to find any information about any Hewitt family being connected to any murders. I can alot of information disproving the TCM but no information to prove that it actually did happen. If there is any concrete evidence it would be nice if it would be posted as well.


jay in covington TX at 2007-02-24 18:45:08
i kinda sorta believe that the TMC is true but my mom & dad both say th@ it is entirely true. which one is is it?


sam in georgia at 2007-02-24 02:52:49
this is wicked awsome and yet some what creepy


Tate in Raleigh, NC at 2007-02-24 00:53:13
Hey, Michael in Denmark...I just scrolled down and noticed that I duplicated your comment about movies inspired by Ed Gein. My bad.

As far as your post about how many TCM movies were made...there are actually 6.

1.TCM (1974)
2.TCM 2 (1986-starring Dennis Hopper and directed by Tobe Hooper again)
3.TCM 3 (1990-starring who the hell knows)
4.TCM The Next Generation (1994- starring Matthew McConaughey & Renée Zellweger)
5.TCM (2003)
6.TCM The beginning (2006)

Just an F.Y.I. from a fellow horror fan!


anonymous in T E X A S at 2007-02-22 23:49:26
why make a movie that's not even original and copy and why use texas, cause you know there was a family who murdered people in texas, they also had a BBQ stand, in the 1960's it aired on channel 11 and 13, they uncovered a lot of bodies, there is a story so much deeper than others know about, only people here in texas really know of that, a lot of the older people, that is why some consider it real, they should have called it the wisconsin chainsaw massacre than!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! look up the tragedy in texas and provide people that are reading your with the story from texas some facts, if you want them to understand you 'period'


nicole in indiana at 2007-02-21 23:58:04
i wanna know what the city in texas that this happened in please.. i woould like to see the house please email me thanks spicyhotnicole@aol.com


michael in denmark at 2007-02-21 17:11:46
To Megan!
Itīs true that the persons that appears in the movie is just fiction... But however there was a guy called leatherface, the movies Psycho, Texas chainsaw massacre and the figure 'buffalo Bill' in Silence of the lamb, is based on this guy... he was a creep who skinned his victims, and made masks and furnitures out of them.. His name was Ed Gein, and on the top of this page thereīs a link to a place where the full story is written and thereīs some real footage on the net aswell... But donīt worry... he died in the beginning of the 80`s(84 I think)But actually itīs quite interesting to read about him.. kind of amazing how different people look at life..


Megan in like I would tell you..you could be the killer lol at 2007-02-21 10:38:07
I think that anyone who says there family died from this is a dumbass and wants atteion.....And they need to lay off the crack pipe aLOT.....I dont understand how this can be try and if it is I wanna see the house and the pics...I wanna meet leatherface I wanna know why he did it if this is true I wanna know..You just dont have a pyscho family thats kills and skins others just for a hobbie do ya?


Megan in A really big fan!!! at 2007-02-21 10:31:03
I wanted to know if this whole thingys really true and if the house he did it in is still up. I heard it was then I heard that soemone tore it down? I wanna know where my sister and I wanna go in and see I think that it should be opened for a buliding 2 show make soemone pay to see or maybe free theres crazy people out there like my sister and I that would love to see it.


michael in denmark at 2007-02-20 21:26:39
amanda!!!!! try and read the comment that tate just posted before you, or the last 20 comments that iīve laid in for over the last few months.... it is fiction!!!


Amanda in Tennessee at 2007-02-20 20:34:35
Where can i find actual pictures of the crime scene? I have looked all over the place and can't seem to find them. Do you have a site I can go to?


in at 2007-02-20 02:10:55
i'v watch the resent movie, did they ever charge any one with the murderes?


Tate in Raleigh, NC at 2007-02-17 19:25:38
Haven't read all entries but enough to know that that this has to be posted...

The article above is correct. It could have elaborated a bit. Anyone heard of movies such as Psycho & Silence of the Lambs? Leatherface, Norman Bates & Buffalo Bill are one in the same...meaning that they are all INSPIRED by the killer Ed Gein. That is who you should be talking about. He is the original evil behind these Hollywood blockbusters. This information is common knowledge for any movie buff. Sorry if I reiterated anyone else's post as I have not fully read the page.

With that said, TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE is the single greatest horror movie ever made!!! Tobe Hooper is a horror GOD.


Chandel in Oregon at 2007-02-17 17:40:34
How did Sally Hardesty get away? She is distant cousin of my Uncle Shane Hardesty. Where is she now?


michael in denmark at 2007-02-16 06:55:33
Couldnīt agree more with raymond... Itīs just like those who claims that the blairwitch project was real footage... and believe it or not all the actors from that movie is still alive and doing other movies today...No wonder how hitler became such a leader, if you concider how 'easy' people are....


Raymond in Missouri at 2007-02-16 01:55:28
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is not a true story. The gas Station and everything else does exsist, because the movies were filmed on location. On location, meaning in Texas. The problem is that people blieve things too much, the more realistic a motion picture company makes a movie. If you believe that the movie is real, then you either one are a small town or two you just didn't know yet.


mike in who cares? at 2007-02-15 02:55:43
Hello ..just want to say heres some truth: Ive lived in Bastrop county a number of years ..it happened here in bastrop on high way 304 the small store where it all started is still there ! if your in bastrop head towards austin..turn left on 304 keep going till you see the old store on your left you cant miss it . lands changed alot ..how far off the house is i dont know was never nuts enough to even think of looking for it! There are many Old timers in the area that remember it well..he did get away ..but id hope and it makes sense ..hes probably dead buy now.....but any way this is the creepy truth it all happened on high way 304........


B.J. in England, Malvern town at 2007-02-15 01:52:10
If it`s not a true story, why at the end of the movie `Texas chainsaw massacre The Beginning` commentator says that during 1969 untill 1973 the Hewitt family murdered 33 people across the state of Texas. And he said that to this day their killing spree is universally considered one of the most notorious an sadistic crimes in American history!!! It is like a Joke or something???? I wanted to visit this house!!! Sad... Please i`m waiting to the respond...


AnnaMarie in at work at 2007-02-08 22:40:22

ISABELL in FLORIDA at 2007-02-04 17:16:02
i think the story is real because when i was younger in girl scouts we passed by the gass station where the story took place. i was frihgted to death so i sleap inside the bus not on the ground.but then at night the girls came running inside because they heard a chain saw so the teacher heardy up and drove of but evry body looked trough the back window and saw him for the first time ever but we got home safe and i think we told our parents all about and repored it to the cops and my uncle because he is a detective!!!!


Candice in New Zealand at 2007-02-04 10:52:39
i think it was made in the 1980's or sumthing..


Lawrence in Australia at 2007-02-04 10:51:22
just randomly..

i work in a video store, and just recently we have added texas chainsaw massacre 2..i thought australia had renamed TCM: The beginning but i looked at the back and it had talked about a dj and a radio show and how some random kids were killed after pranking the show and everyone could hear them getting killed....also...i thought the stuff at the start n end of TCm 2003 was just fake...*s***'s pants*

TSickelsmith in ohio at 2007-02-01 20:45:59
Yes, I realize that the movie is BASED on ED Gein, but what about the 33 murders in (by one person) Texas!? Does that not exist, or did it actually happen? Or do you really have no idea and are just saying this because you're annoyed with hearing people talk about it? Anyway I just would like to know exactly what the story is. Because everyone says its based on Ed Gein but no one has the FULL story! so please get back to me! thank-you


ESTHER in NJ at 2007-02-01 02:46:16

is it real? i really need to know. somebody please tell me!!


Heather Lund in Fennimore, WI at 2007-01-29 16:43:54
If this is not true then why in the remake (at the end of the movie) did they show the clip that was supposed to be an acutal event where the cops are down in the basement and he supposedly jumps out and kills them. Why do they even show that. That is why I thought it was a true story.


Cheryl in Pennsylvania at 2007-01-29 14:21:51
On the new movie 'The Texas Chainsaw Masacre, The Beginning' why would they say at the end of the movie, this was the most notorius murders, 33, across the state of Texas? It made it sound like it was real.


coy bunton in north little rock arkansas at 2007-01-28 19:32:30

thanks for your website i was under the impression that ed gein was exactly like texas chainsaw movie betrayed. I had no idea of the real story and that it inspired several different horror movies. Thanks gwen!

Erica.. type make over and speciel effect in the making of film, then you can find out what happend to his face, almost the same thing as the faces that you saw in pirats of the caribbean, and a lot of other movies... his an actor and there has never been a tcm for real


michael in denmark at 2007-01-23 16:46:19
Margaret... when where you dad working in the prison of huntsville?.. have you ever tried to google thomas hewitt?
There comes a lot of different guys up with that name, and none of them is a murdere... have you ever read the directorīs interwievs... where he is telling the truth about tcm...


erica in georgia at 2007-01-23 07:24:51
what happend to his face? where is he now? so what really happend in the house? can you send me more info on tcm.


MARGARET in TEXAS.GATESVILLE at 2007-01-23 03:26:50

cody in spokane at 2007-01-23 03:26:06
What happen to Tommys head/face


Seth in texas at 2007-01-23 02:47:58
so mainly the story was about ed gein cause i would like to know and did this happen in texas i mean ive heard some story about ed gein from my friends an they said thats why they made the movie an it was to relate to him is this true.


Mr. Drayton Sawyer in austin, texas at 2007-01-22 19:34:09
hell... it aint true. Just you pay no attention to this now. Come on down to the Texas Chili Cookoff and taste the goodies. The secret is in the meat!!! Family standards you know... Hey, what you doin boy? never mind. Eat and run, Eat and run.. See you all there..


jake olsson in springville,utah at 2007-01-21 19:27:40
is that true that ther was no texas chainsaw massacer


Chasity in Appomattox,VA at 2007-01-21 15:31:15
I can't believe this wasnt true.But first i didnt believe it cause of the evidence.Like in the movie at the end they showed the sheriff and the camera man get killed.Then who did find the evidence??The answer probally no one.


christine Ray in Mpls MN at 2007-01-21 04:02:44
I want to know more about what happend and why.


michael in denmark at 2007-01-20 23:34:18
callie.. what house, the house it was filmed in or?.. it is fiction..and Syder... donīt believe everything they say or write in a movie... they said it so the film would sell.. and bite me mate! it worked!!!


Syder in Pittsburgh at 2007-01-20 22:07:33
ok so i'm a little confused i know the stroy of ed geins. but at the end of the TCM the begining they said that the killings lasted from 1969-1973 and the total number of kills was 33 i don't recall ed having that many kills so all the ppl that say they have real evidnce can you e-mail me with the links that you have for this only because i am very interested in this...


Callie in TN at 2007-01-20 21:01:57
I am actually really surprised that it's not a true story. If it's not, then why do peopl from TX say that they've seen the house that the family lived in?


michael in denmark at 2007-01-20 09:03:12
Adam & Hollie.... The stuff that is from the real world is ed gein, the killer that skinned his victims, on the top of this page yhereīs a link to his story, the rest is fiction...


adam in tennessee at 2007-01-20 04:44:48
i find it very hard to beleive tht this is based on fiction.My father lived in texas around the middle 1970's and recalled hearing reports in the local news


Hollie in Tennessee at 2007-01-20 03:43:59
I just watched the movie and I was just looking for more info because it says it's atrue story. Just wonderin.


Justin in Home at 2007-01-20 03:30:26
My only real question is why was the Texas Chainsaw Masscre: Next Generation was even made...It has absoultely nothing to do with any of the other films...In this one it's a governement Cover up regarding Aliens and LeatherFace is made out to be a crossdresser...In my opinion it ruins the other films...In alot of ways it reminds me of Halloween 3 were they completely leave Micheal Myers out...I mean in this film they might has well left out LeatherFace and called this movie something completely different


paul andrews in amarillo tx at 2007-01-19 23:58:53
thats cool


megan in united states at 2007-01-19 21:39:32
Please tell about leather face because me and my friend are doing a project on him and we need real info to get a 100%thanks and if you can help me write back at my email adress.


michael in denmark at 2007-01-19 09:54:55
jesse.. There are 3 movies, the first one was made in 1974, and they made the same movie once3 again in 2003, and now there is the beginning.... whereīs it from? Well in the movie it is a small town in texas, the idea is from a brain inside a director, from a day he was standing in a crowd nest to a chainsaw-rack, and then he spiced up his idea with a few facts about a guy called Ed Gein... He was the true leathermask, he was caught in 1957, and he died in prison 1984.. thereīs a film made over his life aswell, called 'the butcher from plainfield'... and thatīs a totally true story/documentary, about one of the worst killers in our days... anyway use the links above to read more...


michael in denmark at 2007-01-19 09:38:50
Ed g.. Iīm not, read a bit between the lines, and youīll notice that iīm not convinced, but if he can come up with any evidence, i would like to see it, and then make my conclusions... I actually do believe that in a prison or two around the states you can find Thomas Hewitt... Cause thereīs probably more than one man with that name...:-)


Jesse Robinson in Gering,Nebraska at 2007-01-19 00:48:50
how many movies of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre are there?

p.s. My brother loves the movies.Where was the Texas Chainsaw Massacre from?!!


Ed G in at 2007-01-19 00:04:13
Don't get too excited Michael. Just see on this one page how many prisons Thomas Hewitt has been seen in. They can't all be true. The director of the movie, though, he should know where he got the story from.


michael in denmark at 2007-01-18 19:43:14
To john: I got my info from an interwiev with the director of the movie, but iīm not saying that heīs telling the truth there... You wrote youīve been researching for several years now, have you found any info on thomas hewitt on the net, cause i really would like to read it then...


Tim Way in Bagdad, Ky at 2007-01-18 19:11:46
I don't know if it true, But my friends and dad say's it is. I'm just trying to find more about it.But the new movie rock.


John in Hunstville,Texas at 2007-01-18 19:08:21
Thomas Hewitt is the real chainsaw massacre.He is in a Hunstville Prision Serving a life sentence.Some people call him leather face.Some don't.The movie is based on a true story.It is HIS story not ed gein.I've been resarching this for seval years and plus i've been inside the huntstville prison (visiting relatives) and Mr.Hewitt was walking to somewere and had a bible in his hand.At first I didn't know who he was and my uncle pointed him out and told me who he was


michael in denmark at 2007-01-17 17:01:46
Andrew.. the story bout ed gein started in wisconcin... go on the net and search for ed gein then it will popup..:-)


andrew in Tx elpaso at 2007-01-17 16:48:35
were is did the stsrt at what city and date and all info you can give me i doing a report


michael in denmark at 2007-01-17 11:15:52
Rebecca, the film is pure fiction... but the director got the idea about the leather mask from a killer ho was named ed gein, he also gave ideas to Psycho and Silence of the lamb and a lot of other movies.. and by the way take it easy, the man died in 1984...:-)


rebecca in reading at 2007-01-17 10:25:06
ie it actually true then??


michael in denmark at 2007-01-17 06:27:34
To David Irwin. You asked if there really could be such people in the backwoods?, You donīt have to go to the backwoods, a couple of years ago, there was a canibal in germany, he lived in a town with around 6 million people, and not only did he practise his canibalism, but he were actually caught in having a BBQ with a lot of his neighbors, and he served ribs that came from one of his victims!(the neighbors didnīt knew at this time).. They found video tapes where he had tied up a victim, cut off his penis, fried it and eat it in front of this guy, before he killed him... Just telling you mate, sick people is to be found anywhere...


David Irwin in san diego,ca at 2007-01-17 06:12:50
The story really did seem so true, do you think it could be possible that there are people/families that live in backwoods areas that might live almost as crazy as the Hewett family and get away with it ????


Jesse in MO at 2007-01-17 03:59:59
So whereis he at right now


Elizabeth in texas at 2007-01-16 19:50:09
I really do belive what happen. I heard that where he lived now became a musume but who know what really happen. only them well, him because he was the one killing those people.


SID in WASHINGTON at 2007-01-16 13:07:46
hey with all due respect i don' realy care about weather or not it's true i'm still shelling out the $8 to see begining. i'm a gore flic fan and gore flics are alot like pornos not alot of plot... but you wouldn't watch a porno for the plot ...would you. now i did find this helpfull however. see i was under the impression that the investigating officers were chainsawed when investigating the murders as showed at the end of the texas chainsaw massicar remake that came out a year or so back.


Mandi in Arkansas at 2007-01-16 04:59:04
I have been told by many people even people who lived in texas when this was supposed to have happend and they all say that this really did happen that they remember it on the news. So I really don't know. I kinda don't think it did. But it could have. I just know that I can't find anything online aboutn the 'true incedent'. I would think if it was true then I could find somethin online.


summer in CA at 2007-01-14 23:11:30
well i think that the movie has some truth to it but i think that the movie also exagerates just a little. see i whached the movie last night with my cousin and the whole time i was thinking to myself what a sick family!!! ok in 1976 the hewitt family lived in a small town in texas but they hated a crowed so anyone who stopped into there town was doomed to die so the slaudered them and sold there meat. the ganma and granpa died along with the mom but thomas hewitt they never found along with his son.


shaunee beussink in virginia at 2007-01-14 02:15:55
was the part at the end of the texas chainsaw massacare flim the part with the the cop and supposely it was the only real photos of leatherface was that true?

Jake w. in Lansing MI. at 2007-01-03 16:15:45
If TCM is a fake (im still reasearching) what bothers me is who though this stuff up?
Saw and Saw III are the same way. WHO THINKS THIS STUFF UP?


katia rodrigues in TEXAS at 2006-12-29 21:44:47

please email i would like know more about these killings.
email soon. thank you


jack in Florida at 2006-12-07 14:10:47
actually the 'story' is a combination of a few news reports. the first one is Ed Gein. The second one comes from a story of a family in Texarcana who were all clinically insane, in-bred and necrophiliacs. One survivor supposedly died in an institution. Combining these two bizarre news stories and toss in a deadly weapon handy for drama and voila! You get the Texas Chainsaw Massacre! Tobe Hooper's original film cannot be topped! Unless you saw it when it first was released you cannot imagine the reaction of the people coming out of the theatres. It was in the days of partying and disco dancing and the kids coming out of the movie were not talking but all had the look on their faces that they'd just seen the collision of two freight trains.


Woodie in UK at 2006-12-07 12:34:59
And as for the 'REAL' police footage shown in the 2003 remake, it is fake, as the actor who plays the police officer has appered in other stuff, kinda hard to do if you died in 1973 don't you think? Also the first film and the remake are completely different stories, there is no metion of a BBQ store or a Hewitts meat factory in the first film, it's all made up, and the hype just makes the urban legend stronger, thats not to say the film wasn't good, both off them were, but they are just stories from hollywood, as was the Blair witch project, the exocist, and many others, they are only based on myth/legend and nothing more, but they make good stories.

Stacy in Texas at 2006-11-26 22:51:46
The Texas Chainsaw massacre is a true story. And the reason why he killed was because people treated him and his family like dirt.


Eddie Ebarb in New Caney Texas at 2006-11-26 06:45:52
Why did they name the movie Texas Chainsaw Massacre?They made Texan people look carzy.When we go up state the people up there thanks we are bad people too.They should have name the movie Wisconsin Massacre or Wisconsin Nutcase.I am not be met.But we look bad in Calforna already because of Tex Red.

Don't be rude Emma. There isn't a case file because it's not real. If you disagree you can do it without being rude.


emma in home at 2006-11-10 05:01:51
How do you know it isn't real. Have you seen the cold case file? Dug into the secret cases? I thought not.

what!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Dean in Cleveland, Ohio at 2006-11-03 17:02:12
if anyone is smart enough to understand the phrase 'BASED ON', you will realize that its not 100% true. Ed died around 1984 in Geriatric ward of a mental hospital at the age of 77. he only actually killed few people, and the idea of a chainsaw being used in the murders were not known.


Johana in Dallas Tx.:Pleseant Grove at 2006-11-03 16:18:20
I really don't kno much about this whole massacre. I need some help understanding this because it's very interesting and i want to kno more about it.


Keirsten in california at 2006-11-03 00:09:00
well im confused was there a guy in texas in that house that skinned his victums? was there a community that new about this guy that kept it from the world?...wat bout that tape at the end of the movie wen they hought the man has died? man this is confusing can u help me?


Korryn Copher in In The Dalles Oregon at 2006-11-02 19:01:07
I think that this is a nice web page. Alot of people get scared and stuff by movies that say 'based on a true syory' its nice to have someone who uncovers the truth.


Matt in Oregon at 2006-11-02 14:39:52
Ur kool


litte jerry in london at 2006-11-01 02:33:32
i watched the texas chainsaw massacre with best friend of mine.. she believed in the whole thing at first
as did i.. and it was all believable with the fake documentray and all...
we were in college.. she was studying fashion
and i studied film/Directing
i was fascinated with the film almost imedeiately
but in the last scene where the last survivor puts up a fight with Thomas hewitt when he suddenly appears
my friend was startelled
She said im crazy to be adrmiring such a (jumpy film)
but i loved it anyway :D
i then found out about the true fact story of buffalo bill
the man who skinned his female victims and wore their breasts and face... as some sort of ritual...
any ideas on that?


sumelumma in aust at 2006-11-01 01:40:29
for years have believed that the survivor was found walking up the road and that she had endured torture for hours. are there any murders in texas using a chainsaw


pashea in denver co at 2006-10-31 19:34:20

Dude your movie is dope. I can't believe all this stuff, I'm like your biggest fan. I'm 13 and i love the movie, all of them. It would be so awesome to meet you. P.S. you scare me a little.

did he eat his victums?

Ed G in at 2006-10-31 09:47:58
Kelsey, if you've swung from a tyre that was once part of a filmset, that doesn't mean that the film is true. If you meet Sean Connery that doesn't mean James Bond is real. TCM is a fictional film, and if you've seen one of the props they used in the film, it's still a prop.


Kelsey Beane in Texas at 2006-10-30 22:33:50
Hello I was wondering if the story isnt true, then why is it that in the 2003 film when it starts out with the kids jumping off of a tire swing into the river, that it goes on about how everything took place back behind the woods, and my family as been to that river and my brother has swung off of the tire swing. And they have read up about the original leather face living in texas, so was that just a hoax? And a coincident that the producer filmed at the guadeloupe river?


sha in new york at 2006-10-30 18:20:20
I have been trying to prove to my co workers that the Texas Chainsaw Massacre being true is just an urban legend (it’s impossible) how can I prove this?


sean in leesville, louisanna at 2006-10-29 19:14:42
Can I get an address to the place so me and my friends can drive there?

thank you

kam in London at 2006-10-25 10:37:00

Erica Harding in Warsaw at 2006-10-23 16:00:34
I heard that it was a true story because at the end of the movie it said that it all was true. It also said that some police offocers (can't spell right now) went down to the basement and the guy killed him with a chainsaw. Is that now true? My dad even said that it was true.


justin in new york at 2006-10-23 13:56:50
the massacre was rael in the fiftys but his probably died now

where did the massacre happend at the exact place i know it was in texas but what is tha little towns name


Robert in Los Angeles at 2006-10-19 03:45:02
i cant belive that people actually think this way, why dont u do research b4 asking questions, u all obviously have computers, use them. If a mass murder like described in the movey ever did exist, dont u think that he would b remembered as the most brutal and unimaginable terror in the history of serial killers. But he doesnt even make the top 10. The movie was based a lot more on turn of the century murderers, here and around the world, that shocked the newspaper readers,but back then there were so many more crimes of brutality that were never documented correctly, for the purpose of sturing up the people(The mob) which history shows, the people always had control on what was going to happen next in the history of humanity. Ed Gein, as probably told in the above page, is that he really only killed two or three people, the rest were bodies that he stole from the cemetaries, which talked about in the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre. A case 2 study for all u psychology freaks.


Edward Hewitt in Texas at 2006-10-19 03:42:21
well my grandpa was thomas hewitt and he was a drunk and a crack addict. he used to get so messed up that he would want to eat raw meat, so one day he decided to try to eat human flesh. I didnt believe him but he called a couple of jahovas witnesses and ate them, its true i saw the bones. hebegun to smoke more stuff and then he lost it. People think im crazy but im telling the truth, He moved to California some where by Yosemite some big park, but he is still there and yes hes stil alive.


nikki in house at 2006-10-19 01:06:41
Is he dead.

fartmaster3500 in Copperfield Tx at 2006-10-18 22:59:53
I believe in the Tx chainsaw massacare because I've heard a lot of people say they witnessed it or have been a victim of it.


amy in MI at 2006-10-18 17:59:49
i fully understand your story but i realy think that personne whoe was killing all this people he is still alive but still out there somewhere i guess he most be 67 y old if he was born 1939 .


ashlyn in home at 2006-10-18 15:20:12
I think that the texas chainsaw massacre is real and i think that is so gross about Ed.Gein


randy butcher in at 2006-10-18 12:27:12
One other question.Does the home of Thomas Hewitt (Texas Chainsaw Massare)still exist and where is it located?


randy butcher in houston,tx at 2006-10-18 12:24:07
Wht newspaper article or released government info.is there open to the public viewing?


stephen in Hohenwald, Tennessee at 2006-10-18 06:54:32
Hey there. How are you? some buddies and I was hoping to make a road trip down there were this suppose to happen. Is this house still standing where the massacre was suppose to happen? What town in Texas did this happen in?


anne shirley in Home at 2006-10-18 05:52:27
Well, I have to tell you, I have been up all night after watching the two versions of Texas Chain Saw Massacre, and I have finally realized the truth about the movies.
What about the five teens in the movie. Is that all fake. So there were no teens killed in Travis County with a chainsaw? No baby was taken by the only survior? No policeman died as the movie ending suggest? It seemed very strange that there was no one found that killed them?
So it is completely fake; just based on stories of past murders? No chainsaw? Well, I'm glad.
Just post and I'll read your comments.


jarod garcia in greenville, tx at 2006-10-17 23:04:22

Billy Jacobs in Texas, Austin at 2006-10-15 22:13:48
This is the first time for me to admit it but i my dad has seen and knew Ed Gein they use to be friends until he showed him what he did to women and he killed himself.that was about 10 years before he was caught. my dad said that Ed killed over thirty women and my dad helped kill one of them. He said they use to 'have his way with them' after they were killed. My dad said he wouldnt kill them because Ed was to gruesome. But he liked to 'play' with the girls before they were killed. and have sex with them when they were dead. He siad he would cut the girls a little and 'get them wet' if u want to talk email me back


Brian in florida at 2006-10-15 20:46:30

letyluvsmonkeys in dalas texas at 2006-10-14 17:54:31
the texas chainsaw massacre isn't a true story. the only thing close to this story is the murders in plainsville, wisconsin by ed gein. there was no chainsaw involved. he shot two women and dug up the rest from graveyards. skinned them to make furniture and clothing items.

Michelle in Dallas Texas at 2006-10-12 23:57:50
I need to know if he is real because me and my friends were just talking about it today, and we ask is he dead? Did they really shoot him and put him the electric chair? Is he alive and if he is is he in the same 'ol house or is he in jail? Oh yea how do you know all this stuff. And anyway is there proof if there was one or not? If there is please send me evidence. Im so anxious of knowing. Do you have pictures of the house or were its located. I am a freak trying to find out about him. Oh yea is there really a leather face?One last question. If there is no TCM then why do people say its true. And if it did happen in Wisconsin Why don't they call it the WCM? Thanks I hope you can answer some of my questions. Oh yea and thanks for having this helpful webopage.

Angela in A school at 2006-10-11 14:19:32
Why is it called Texas chainsaw massace and not wisconsin chainsaw massacre if it happend in wisconsin?


Ed G in at 2006-10-11 10:20:16
Paul, does your father really have a newspaper article covering the Texas chainsaw massacre? If so, it's exactly what a lot of the people who use this page have been waiting for. Would you be able to scan it?


Webmaster in at 2006-10-11 10:06:20
Joel, Please can you not write in capitals all the time. It makes your posts very hard to read, and is considered shouting. It also means I have to convert it all to small letters each time. Please turn your caps lock off. Thanks.

Anthony in El Paso, Texas at 2006-10-10 08:31:11
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre IS NOT true. This is a HUGE urban legend that some people have had embedded in their minds. They have been told about this story since a child and grew up swearing these crimes realy occured. The story was inspired by a serial killer named Ed Gein from Wisconsin who really did kill two women and wore their flesh but NOTHING EVER happened in Texas nor was there ever a chainsaw involved. This is the work of movie-making and people need to learn to seperate fact from fiction.


amber in at 2006-10-10 07:19:37
he iz still alive but to years ago he followed and tryed to kill again the person that got away from him but he tooled the police


g gwen in az at 2006-10-10 07:08:21
well i lived in arkansas and there was a true story about this event. i was very young then and it scared the **** out of me. the story is true it happened not to far from were i lived by texarkana. please e mail me back i do know that this was and is real to this day.just were are the rest of the family not sure and do not care to know. it is VERY REAL.THE very first movie maybe 1975 was the best to reveal the event of murder and the acts of the real thing


EMAN in LIBRARY at 2006-10-10 05:35:12

vanessa in elk grove california at 2006-10-10 02:30:28
i saw the first movie and it has a 'reall live film' and it shows that the masacer kills them with the chainssaw so are uyou saying that thats not true? i just saw the second movie today and i like them both but so like does that mean that the only true thing about them is that he skinned his victims?


tawnya in mo at 2006-10-09 23:24:22

monico paracuelles in at 2006-10-06 07:57:10


Nic Tiof in Texas at 2006-10-05 20:02:14
These murders did, in fact, take place---in Newt (Neut) Texas in the mid 1970s. There was a small gas station there with great bar-b-que. I was in prison with Tommy Hewett, and he gave me some good recipes. The only reason I lived to tell about it is because Leatherface (Tommy) and I used to play golf together. He had one HELLUVA swing, though he sometimes did slice on the tee-off. nft


caitlin in school at 2006-10-05 17:33:40
cool


chavez in nunn of your buissness at 2006-10-05 17:29:40
why do you always kill people for their face


ALJ in yo mommas house at 2006-10-05 16:25:29
well people say they are victoms of the murders from sopose ob ly Thomas Hewitt there is no way you got murderd unless you are retarded.The real murderer is Ed Gein.And the end of the Texas Chainsaw movie in 2003 was fake i got to see the hole video it was a fake guy and the real massacre came out but it was fake to hollywood.


hugo in somewhere on tn, at 2006-10-05 02:45:55
i think it`s not real , was only a plan to make the movie more popular and get more money,but i don`t really care i`m from mexico and we got alot like that.c ya.


Mark Baranosky in Houston, Texas at 2006-10-04 22:23:26
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre IS a good movie .. and I too, remember the incident. Whether or not the Movie took the EXACT facts, or not, is a moot point .. the fact is an incident did happen and it was all over the news. My Cousins & I even took a road trip to see the farm where it happened. Real, yes .. but the Movie did take alot of 'liberties' with the story.


Brandon in TEXASS at 2006-10-04 22:05:36
its a great movie but its all fake? i think?aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa


Kendesja in Texas school at 2006-10-04 21:29:44
weel i am a girl from texas and i think the texas chainsaw massacre is a great movie.


cealeste in gatesville texas at 2006-10-04 20:29:03

carissa in at 2006-10-04 15:29:45
i was a victim of the texas chainsaw massacare and he cut off my arm and both of my legs i crawled with my one arm and my head thats how i got away from him.


jim in in your basement at 2006-10-04 13:55:26
Are you people serious? Why argue about this moot point. Who gives a damn either way. Hollywood will still make millions off of you minions either way.


Jade in Texas at 2006-10-04 04:41:52
I am doing a research paper on the untold story of this can you help me?


alice mckee in west virginia at 2006-10-04 03:29:00
by the way, robert sawyer bought everone in the pen an ice cream, bag of chips and a coke when they got the rights to make the movie from him. and ED GEIN is a whole different story. and if u want to e-mail me back...midnightlady_12@yahoo.com. LETS TALK.


alice mckee in west virginia at 2006-10-04 03:23:21
my husband is from texas and spent time with robert sawyer in the penitinary in texas. is robert sawyer still alive and serving time? my husband says this is a very true story. ask officer holt, he should know.


Reginald Moore in Houston Texas at 2006-10-04 00:51:28
How come there wasn't a man hunt for the real leather face. And in the two thousand three Texas Chainsaw Massacre. There was a scene when the two cops were going downstairs to investigate the murder scene. And the guy with the chainsaw came out. Did that really happen or was that Hollywood playing tricks on the audience viewers.


joseph McCall in Maryland at 2006-10-03 21:09:15
What is the deal with the story i saw real footage at the end of the movie in 2003 and i was really in to the story,
unless you know the real story don't email me back, im really into the story so pleez dont call it phony unless you were a victim.


in at 2006-10-03 19:12:29
i beleiv ethat the texas chain saw massacre is real and is going to kill you


basdel in new castle at 2006-10-03 17:50:24
wow cant believe it i'm scared


Ed G in at 2006-10-02 07:39:46
Jason, no one is saying that Ed Gein committed the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. That would be saying that the film *is* true, and what people are saying is that it *isn't*. Ed Gein not having a chainsaw doesn't make the film any truer does it?

You say you have the newspaper in your hand. Then, instead of quoting from it, you talk about your grandfather, which is less good evidence. Then, instead of quoting him, you say that Hollywood couldn't invent the story, which is no kind of evidence at all. I wonder if you will change anyone's mind this way.


al ucard in illinois at 2006-10-01 17:09:02
yo jason thomas why dont you scan the news paper send it to non belivers and thats that. and for the record they werent saying ed gein had a chainsaw thats what the imagination of the director you need to research tob the director then you will understand their is a number of movies made in the image of serial killers with a little twist . theres serial killers and there are shark attacks jaws wasnt made about any paticular shark attack but it represents all of them . get it , good adios amigo


jason thomas in georgia at 2006-09-30 23:16:13
ok i researched it happend i have a copy of the newspaper in my hand.my grandfather DOES REMEMBER IT LIKE YESTERDAY.hollywood couldnt come up with a story like that.and second of all when they searched through ed geins home he didnt even own a chainsaw.but he did have human furniture.


jason thomas in georgia at 2006-09-30 23:03:21
Omg i can hardly bielive it didnt really happen.it seems so true but ill belive you.


grace in england at 2006-09-30 16:42:04
im not to sure cause its sounds to scary to be true but i think its an over exagurated movie which is made to scare people silly and trick them into beliveing that horror movies can come true and that someone or something may pick on you one day


Becky in England at 2006-09-29 12:03:38
well its not true you all just want to belive that it is true, there was a man called Ed Gein, but they could off based the story on the film. the silence of the lambs is bassed on the same stroy, so are you going to say that the silence of the lambs is true.


al ucard in illinois at 2006-09-29 07:11:22
to whom it may concern , movies are made of immagination and true storys of the writer tob has taken the story line from ed in 1954 plainsfield wisconson witch he died in 1984 in prison/looney hospital, gein was a country hick that talked to his dead mother and would put a home made skin suit out of victoms , and was said to dance in the moon light while wearing it , the movie phyco was based around ed also, iv studied serial killers for a while now , and what a study it is i advice everyone to read and know your enemys aleatherface and the family was the creation of tob the directer,what a brillent film its one of the scariest film of 1970s and could easily be in top 5
and ed did eat human flesh , dont know about chili but that would be a good way to cover the human flesh taste thats considering it had a diffrent taste , never tried if the house is still their or if it isnt it was just a prop house used but all my writings do is kill the want to know, the mystical side of the tcm but study ted bundy, john gacey,henry lee lucas, jeffry dalmer, ed fish just to name a few if ya wanna know anything about serial killers im the man. g b y a


alexis in at gabes house!! at 2006-09-29 00:13:08
huh???


diego in chicago at 2006-09-27 04:05:05
So the chainsaw massacreis not true cuz it look realdo u know if there was any survivors wen that happend?


Luke in Canada at 2006-09-27 00:20:47
The new one coming out in October looks from the trailer like its going to be better and the scariest and most up elements of the first one will be unleashed full force this time! I'm glad they are using the same actors to play the Hewitts. The sheriff was in Full Metal Jacket also and was an in that also...but hes a good actor though!


brandi in san jose c/a at 2006-09-25 00:48:22
did they ever catch him?does any one know if his family is still around?where is his house?..(directions)do people ever go to visit his house?has any one ever tried to do what he did?why did they say there was a chainsaw involved?


Steph in doesnt matter at 2006-09-25 00:39:46
i believe that the tcm is a true story.... i really do cause ive read stuff on it and i believe that is it but i saw that people said the bbq place is still standing but they moved the hewitt house.... could you please tell me more???


tom in australia at 2006-09-24 11:13:23
tk thanks for the info where did u find it.


Brian in Dallas at 2006-09-24 07:47:19
I once heard on N.P.R. during a review of the movie that the house in the film still stands today as a restraunt in Kingsland, TX.


tk in pampa, tx at 2006-09-24 07:43:31
the chain saw masicar is true. the real story is the family ran a bbq stand. they sold bbq'd hoggs. they ran out of money and began using people. they cut them up just like the hoggs and sold the meat as bbq. leather face is in the walls in texas. the bbq stand is still standing out side of childress about an hour from there. the house has been moved away. but this is a true story and does not have any thing to do with this ed person. yes the story from hollywood is glorified but the story is true go to the newspapers its all there. have a great day.


shane in why texas? at 2006-09-24 05:07:39
why texas?


Tom in australia at 2006-09-24 03:44:49
its true but leather face only cut faces off.... ed gein killed girls only and cut fingers toes legs arm head ans everything off like in the moive where in the basement thers all of that in the new one. so that part is fake.


alex in Independence, ky at 2006-09-24 01:20:36
katie he is real. but he is in his 60's but the movie is a little untrue. he only skind and ate his victimms


Mike in Providence,RI at 2006-09-23 02:56:05
why not remake the movie ed gein


tom in australia at 2006-09-23 01:48:08
oh no wait he did wear skin on his face.


tom in australia at 2006-09-23 01:45:17

robert jimenez in AnsonTexas at 2006-09-17 07:22:39
ilive in Anson texas and the story i've always heard is that it happend in childress texas which is about an hour and half from ANSON but the movie it said happend in Travis conty which is only 4 hour away


Dave in TX at 2006-09-17 04:25:13
What town did your grandma live in?


Dave in TX at 2006-09-17 04:23:24
john, tyler. where are your facts. prove it!! you can't. nobody has been able to yet. trooper john has had the best story yet, but can his even be verified? no!


Dave in TX at 2006-09-17 04:20:36
lynette, if this is true what you are saying. than what is the address? what tx town did it happen in? what is the name of the store? i have yet to see one person state any facts on this site. just one that is easily verified.i would love to beleive this story but nobody has provided facts


Lynette in Nevada at 2006-09-17 01:48:30
I know for a fact that it is true. I use to live an hour away. I have actually been to the drive-way of the house. I have acrually stepped on the property. My cousins dared me to so I did. It was the scarest thing in my life. I went to show my boy-friend and I believe that they have moved the home. There is still the store that is left. The main thing I want to know is 'Where did they move the house to?'


tyler in arizona at 2006-09-15 18:56:04
I beleive that the massacre is true because i'v seen the old newspaper's and they give me the chills when i read about it. I would want to drive by their late at night and see if the house still stands. and just see it.


john in texas at 2006-09-10 23:01:51
It is true. I live near where events took place. The movie is 'hollywoodized' but very true. I am doing research for a book on another incident and will reference to this story. Keep an eye on this site for more info on my book this month.

the women who stole that baby to the lady that the guys found in the street was crazy. The texas chainsaw massacre was even more crazyer how could he do that to the people why didnt he did that to his own family. the good person there was the kid that help them escape frome the house sometimes i want to cry because all the family was crazy except he and he decided to stay there i wonder why didnt the girl take him but i remember that he wanted to stay poor kid i wonder if he still lives or no if someone finds out pleas put it out there so i can see it. BYE EVERYONE

Was the Texas Chainsaw Massacre True?


Kitty in at 2006-08-31 00:07:09
My God people, Even the man that wrote Texax's chainsaw massacre said he bases it on Gein. It makes it look better to say it's based on true story. You know like Blair Witch (you do know thats not true?). Google Tobe Hooper ...The writer & director of the movie & you will find interviews of him telling people ITS NOT REAL. Lets not all be as niave as Hollywood wants us to be.


JenJen in at 2006-08-31 00:00:42
I cannot wait to see the new one coming out in October! So excited. :)


Joy Melody Elosendo in Philippines at 2006-08-29 10:37:52
i was amazed by the impact of the movie...


MIck in MN at 2006-08-25 16:02:54
Isn't it like Wisconson to breed a killing field like Gein and Dahmer? It seems a lot of people don't have much of on opinion on why this took place, but I would like to discuss the psychological opinion on why this took place. Also, I wonder why the events that 'inspired' this story is told as the 'TEXAS chainsaw massacre' when the events and killer resided in 'Sconie. Don't get me wrong, I love the movies as the brilliant horror flicks that they are... I just wonder, can true life be more horrible than fiction?


steve in pratt, kansas at 2006-08-24 02:42:50
i just watched the movie and it's driving me insane what did the house really look like? ohh and were is the best info to look deeper into the case?


princess in tulsa at 2006-08-22 18:15:28
i belive it was real, i dont live far from there.mabey 4 hours or so.my aunt is a true beliver in as well. so first showed me the movie when i was like 8 years old. when i seen the new version i was shocked to see the police footage at the end and really became a beliver, now that i have 3 kids of my own and after seeing it i dont think that ill be leting them watch it any time soon.

Ken in Philippines at 2006-07-31 10:14:03
some say it was not true but i believe it is based upon a true story because they have the evidence and the one that makes me convinced is the video of the police officer who explore the house and attack by leatherface. They also have 1300 evidence which found in the hewitt residence.


matt in pennsylvania at 2006-07-31 04:02:09
yeah but what about that evidence part at the end i don't get how they say the files closed the officers died that day and all that they say all thats true are they lying? isn't that like illegal? i don't get that


carol in oklahoma at 2006-07-30 23:09:09
It said a true storey and the real thing about leatherface and im shore people gone missing and has a cannibal family.
In this world their are messed up things we can not understand why its happening to be a true story.Its because its popular about the murders and the missing that's why someone made a movie about it and put it to say its a true story.I rather not live in texas maybe go check the house out but if i was really carefull and not get killed.I would hate if that happen to me and nobody found me dead or a alive.But people dont have to believe if its true or not true.I think it just want to scare people thats all i have to say.


kenya in texas at 2006-07-29 23:06:45
why are people scared to realize that leatherface still alive overweight and eating chocolates in a mental institution in texas?


Abcde in Hawaii at 2006-07-29 22:25:22
ithink that it is a true story and that you need to realize that it is true because my family lived in texas at that time and my neice was a victim in that story.


Ed G in at 2006-07-29 22:21:41
Bryce, just because you ask for pics doesn't meant that anyone's going to send them to you. You are old enough at 13 to know that you don't just ask for things from total strangers and get them.


Carol in Arkansas at 2006-07-29 05:36:18
I think some of you are really mean the way you talk about other people. Calling people stupid and toothless is very childful and hurtful to some.

Does the Hewett house still stand? If so how do you get there?

edmond in texas at 2006-07-23 04:03:12
My name is Edmond and I live in El Paso, TX...I lived in the small town where this happened but the government did in fact cover this up...supposedly the story of 'Leatherface' was hidden because he was secretly related to the president at the time of these murders...which president can not be told either! he was shunned by his family of vegans after he ate the families tea cup chihuaha with some fava beans and a nice chianti...


louise in lizard lick, nc at 2006-07-23 03:55:13
what ha happned was...he had done gotten hungry and desided to eats some white folks on vacasion..my mommas daddys sisters cousin was at the piggly wiggly one time and had done herd some peoples talkn about letherface..hes still around and he has said he is madder than ever

Angie in between Houston and Austin at 2006-07-21 17:00:09
I worked with a girl that was a correction officer in Huntsville. She told me that she had to go to the Holiday unit to cover someone elses shift and Leatherface was down there. She said that he is in a cell all by himself and he is not allowed to be out. She also said the looks of him will give you chills up your spine. She described him of being ugly and mean. She said she was scared the whole night she worked on that unit.


MARCUS MIKOLA in HOLLAND OHIO 43528 at 2006-07-20 11:32:21
i just want to know if it real happened down in texas the teaxs chainsaw massure base on a true story let me know with a answer please


Makku in Germany at 2006-07-19 14:59:21
The Movie made in 2003 ( with Jessica Biel)
Is absolutly exciting but I also know that is definitly NOT true! I searched for facts about it *cause this story was interesting for me. A stupid chainsaw-man is hunting some kids... But why does that movie tell you that it's based on a true story? And it also shows some <<*proofs*>> right before the film starts. And what is with these two policemen? They are dead right? Right now I don't know if this story is true or not? IS anybody out there who know the true??

victor chan in Singapore at 2006-07-18 01:54:48
If this massacre took place, then it should be in the press all over in the USA and worldwide as well. Do we have this coverage?


Mikhail in Georgia at 2006-07-17 21:26:36
This is just ridiculous.

I happened upon this page by complete accident, while looking for some pictures of Leatherface to put on my desktop.

Why does everyone think this is real?

I hate Hollywood! They always brainwash the idiots in this country so easily....

This article is true. Leatherface ain't real. Toby Hooper, the director of the ORIGINAL Texas Chainsaw Massacre, (not the remake that came out in 2004, that so many of you are quoting from) was Christmas shopping in a mall. He was being pressed by the holiday crowd, and bumped into a rack of chainsaws. He fantasized about buzzing the crowd to pieces, and the idea for the movie came to him. He based the Leatherface character on Ed Gein, a serial killer who lived in Wisconsin during the 1950s. Gein only ever killed two people, but he also robbed the local cemetary on a regular basis. He made furniture, kitchen utensils, clothes, and yes, MASKS, out of human remains. Just like Leatherface.

But Leatherface is completely fictional. When Toby Hooper released the movie in 1974, he made sure people knew it was 'inspired' by a true story, and made up a fake police case file intro for the beginning of the movie. He just did it because it looked cool, and people who weren't paying all that much attention would think Leatherface was real.

Like you.

And when Michael Bay remade TCM in 2004, he did the same thing. He blew it up even more, saying Leatherface was real and he was 'Thomas Hewitt', saying it was a 'based on a true story', and even going so far to include 'police case footage' after the credits.

It's all sensationalist to sell more tickets. Nothing more. If people think Leatherface is real, more people will see the movie, and he'll get more cash.

He just duped ALL of you guys.

And some of you keep talking about the footage at the end of the 2004 version.

Please use your brain and think for a moment. There is no way in God's Green Earth that the footage would be real in the first place. And if it was, it would not be used in a horror movie. The victim's families wouldn't stand for it, and Michael Bay would be in court until he had grey hair, and possibly serve jail time.

One more thing:

For all of you on this message board that actually beleive that guy pretending to be cop on here is for real, I hope you never have children. A cop wouldn't be on a random message board, revealing case information, ESPECIALLY if it was some 'secret case' involving a conspiracy about covering up Leatherface.

I bid you a good day.

it is real!!!!
my mother remembers when it was on the news and they uncovered the bodies, i mean come on what makes you think people are not that sick you were not the victim, the people who where in it probably did way worse than what we all saw in the movie, there are a lot of sick people in this world as you are reading this now someone is locked somewhere deep being tortured or eaten to death. that was on the news when it happened yeah hollywood puts in extra but who’s to say it didn’t happen like that where you there? i'm going to try and find some articles about it.


christan in texas at 2006-07-12 23:09:54

By the way not all Texans are homicidal Maniacs. And there isn't any more crime here than in any other states. Grow up people.


Boner in The Center of Oblivion, Tx at 2006-07-09 12:50:30
Ok, I have been a horror fan all of my life and yes I am a huge fan of the TCM movies. I also have lived in East Texas all of my life. I appreciate this site in trying to clarify the truth for everyone and yes what the intro says is TRUE. Sorry, but Hollywood is Hollywood. Its full of half truths and lies simply for entertainment. If you wanted the truth here it is. Even though the truth is right there in front of everyone, they still wonder if it was real or not! But hey that's the way they wanted it. Its the movies 'hook'. How successful do you think the film really would have been without the myths? I enjoy the talk and storys ppl have to offer over the subject because it just adds to the legend and or fairy tale the movie has inspired. It just immortalizes Leatherface as a horror movie Icon. If those who want the truth they can find it, but its still fun to hear the storys.


kristen in joliet. at 2006-07-08 22:00:38
dont u ever think that this Ed Gein also could have murdered the smith sister?? just a guess..

Angelmae in Rochester NY at 2006-07-07 15:06:33
I am not sure how I happened across this page, however here I am and let me tell you I am scared to death. Im assuming by the spelling and ignorance written by just about everyone that has posted, that no one here is over 13.( Except Harkin maybe!) What I find so frightening is how these kids even after reading the entry on how the TCSM is almost completely false exept for 'possibly' being LOOSELY based on some Ed guy, are STILL ASKING IF IT IS A TRUE STORY!! The one that really kills me is the kid, who from by what he wrote, seems like a completely illiterate,back woods, toothless, redneck who insists that because his 'Grampa' told him its 'reel', that it is! Are you people kidding me?? You are the future of this country, and if you ask me ( I am aware no one did) this is scarier than any movie I have ever seen!!


nikki in england at 2006-07-07 13:56:18
hi, im really interested in great crimes some that are unsolved, and ive always been in interested in the texas chainsaw massacre, the thing that chills me is that this murderer could still be alive????? i wonder

john in uk at 2006-07-05 15:40:10
check out the lyrics to the slayer song 'dead skin mask' found on the 'south of heaven' album. also inspired by ed gein.


Max in new orleans at 2006-07-03 23:00:39
I think that the film clips in the movie are real and just in the house where 'leather face' lived and skind his victoms


Bryce Doty in Lake City Iowa at 2006-07-03 18:30:19
I loved the film and i want to see the house im 13 amd i think if this didnt hapen then it will someone will do what happend in the movie if this film is true please send me pics please wright back thanks


Tadum in at 2006-07-03 18:24:13
Ed Gein is a killer that skinned his victims and used it for things and i dont think he was called leatherface but ed gein is a true person and ed gein had a life sentence to prison so if he was still alive he isnt wondering around and its considered a true story because in this movie Leatherface skinned his victims and used the skin to make lamps and new body parts and faces and everything and thats wat ed gein did wich is who this movie is based on


Jana in Canada at 2006-07-02 21:42:37
i jst wanted to kno who is Ed Gein where did the author got his name from??? and there r people saying that they call the nurdered or the person who skinned his victims people said he is called 'leatherface' is that true? and also is it true that people that he is still wondering after 2003 after tha movie Texas Chainsaw Massacre?


Julie in IA at 2006-07-02 21:21:30
When they say 'Inspired by a true story', means more or less they got the idea from, but embellish it for the sake of making a movie.


Katelyn in indiana at 2006-07-01 21:47:12
hey i was still wondering if this stuff is even true i would really like to no or are you guys just making it up just to get money and please im me i really would like to know sincerly Kateyln

E. Saldana in Texas at 2006-06-30 21:30:43
I just was wondering if the TCSM was real. You have answered the question. But I have another question. Why is it considered a true crime if it never took place, never happened as you say? Thank you, Emy


Jason in CA at 2006-06-30 03:20:18
I resd the stuff and it is not real.


Jason in In CA at 2006-06-30 03:11:47
Is the things in the movie real and is there pics on it.


valerie in california at 2006-06-30 02:28:22

Gina in at 2006-06-29 08:48:12

joy in at 2006-06-29 00:26:18
Listen you may belive me or not but my mother used to live in Texas back in 1964-1974 for ten years and when the movie came out she was petrified to go see it.I wanted to see it and she always say no.I asked her why she would'nt take me and she finally said 'I was there and I don't need to see my past agin' she told me about a mill were peolpe would hang what she thought was cow meat until she saw an old man drag a bodie into the hanger. She saved her money a whole year and left & shes never said anything about it agin (don't reply)!


ezra in fortworth dalls at 2006-06-28 23:14:08
i want to know where this true story happened?


greg martinez in La Porte Texas at 2006-06-28 20:00:39
I read a biography about ed gein,and it says that this took place in wisconsin. So if this is true. Why would it be called texas chainsaw massacre? Please let me know thank you..


Valorie in Idaho at 2006-06-28 19:56:03
Is there really a girl named Erin that the chainsaw massacre almost got and what is her full name? Is she really in a mental insitution?


Neal in Columbus, GA at 2006-06-28 17:09:50
Ok umm i am really interested in the stories of 'The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. I have always been interested ever since i have seen the movie and my dad has told me stories about it and stuff. I just want to know more about him and his family and what people went through and stuff. And if its even REAL?!


lynlee in fort worth, TX at 2006-06-28 17:01:48
ok well i live in texas so i hear about this story all the time, i hear parts of the movie are true and i wanted to know what is real and what they are me about. i heard that some guy and his family owned a bbq place out n the middle of no-where and people that would pass it by would stop and go on about how good the bbq was but they found out that the meat was people and that some guy was killing peole useing there skin for cloths and stuff and they used the meat in there bbq resturant. is that ture?


Ty in FL at 2006-06-28 16:23:07
The b&w featurette newsreel at the end of the film is not real, it was made FOR the movie.
I was born in texas, and most of my family originates from there. Allthough the TCM is considered fiction, many reltaives tell me stories of aweful acounts related to the TCM, even before the first movie came out. You come to your own conclusions.


Doug in CA at 2006-06-28 08:00:48
Is the film at the end of the movie true? It wasn't ed Gein becuase it said it was 1973 was it looked pretty real. Was it? Please explain. Thank you.

I have seen the film afew times and i think that texas has a reputation of nutty people as i watched another true life movie based on another family of nutters in texas i would love to go for a holiday but scared incase i meet the wrong people, My question is in the movie when the police officer is in the house at the end did that really happen or was that just hollywood making there own parts up


STEPHANIE in AIRDRIE IN SCOTLAND at 2006-06-24 18:34:06

Ryan in Ohio at 2006-06-18 18:34:23
Is the Thomas Hewitt alive? If he is alive where does he live? How many people did he kill? Did he use something else to kill with? Did he have many masks? Would he kill good people? Why was he bad?Why What was his family like?Did he really hang people by the head and back? Are the films real or not? Did he really lose his nose or did he cut it off? If he is alive does he still kill people or hides from people so he will not get caught by the FBI or cops? I hope you answer my questions.

state trooper harkin in travis county at 2006-06-08 14:12:12
as promised to you all earlier i said i would update the hewitt case that i am currently reviewing under the u.s. 30 year transparency order - thomas leonald hewitt worked in trappers bar in travis county - it was here that he met an until now undisclosed person - a ryan biggs - ryan had been incarcerated for a felony of malicious wounding to a 20yr old female citizen - was arrested but subsequently released without charge due to insufficient forensic evidence - he 'bragged' to thomas on one of their working shifts & the conversation was overheard by a fellow employee - it is now believed that thomas & ryan both contrived together on a subsequent spate of similar style attacks in the travis county area - it is now believed that ryan biggs may have been instrumental in influencing thomas' subsequential behaviour - should you wish me to post more content please advise.....


kyle mullan in school at 2006-06-08 13:15:09
i think chainsaw massacre was not a good film i prefer the original film which is alot more scarier!
i think its a bit gruesome to say that someone actually skinned people and wore it!!!

Hey tylor in wisconsin I like your info,i see you were on the same site I was on earlyer, you typt it word for word as I read it on the site.
but in all, Ed gein did'nt dress up like his mother that was just a thing the writer came up with for the movie.In his mind his mother was alive he didnt have create her every time one of his suits went bad.
but I do know One thing about him, my grandpa live in the town he did delivering milk to the towns people , Ed Gein had a strang thing for sour goats milk.
and would get very angry if his milk was to fresh.


missie in Albuquerque, New Mexico at 2006-06-08 06:21:15
I'm not so sure if the texas chain saw murders happend,
But I know I aint creeping out to any old houses in the middle of no where.

leatherface is real!!! his name is thomas brown hewitt and he lived in travis county, tx. e-mail me at chaseparham1992@yahoo.com, t.c.m. is real, and leatherface is real!!!


Christian in Denver at 2006-06-07 05:12:20
If the story was based on Ed Geinthen how come there was a chainsaw invovled? He was not considered a serial killer because he only OFFICIALLY killed 2 people.


Christian in Denver at 2006-06-07 05:02:23
I lived about 20 minutes away from there and I was 21 when it happened. When I drove by the house I saw the bodies. It is true!!!!!

Ed G in at 2006-06-06 07:35:06
It's not a leap of faith, Denni. Read the blurb at the top of this page, and then follow its links. Then you will see the source of the 'theory' as you call it is Tobe Hooper, who invented the TCM story for his movie. He mentions Ed Gein as one of the inspirations. It's not that incredible a leap of faith to believe what the movie's creators say about it.


Denni Dean Barnes in Killeen Texas at 2006-06-06 03:03:05
Yes I wish to discuss this issue further; and ask what proof do you have to disprove a legend to match the size of the state its in? Now I am not quick to smack down your 'theory' rather than interested on where you did your research. Every search I have done never connected Ed Gein to Leather Face. I do remember Ed Gien, not personally but i have done research and it is true Psyco and Silence Of the Lambs had a lot of common ground but to say he to was the infamous Leather face is a leap of faith and this comes from a man who follows the religion of one day a ghost will take him to 'The Land Of Milk And Honey'

Sincerely Yours,
A Curious Soul

Tylor in Wisconsin at 2006-06-04 21:10:22
I have been duing some research on ED Gein, and he realy was a real guy. I saw some pictures of his victims, and it was just disgising! one was naked and was srung up like a deer, and she was decapitatid. Ed Gein had n entire wardwrobe fabricated out of human skin concisting of leggings, a gutted torso cinctuted breasts) and an array of tanned, dead skin masks and looked leathery and almost mummified! At one time Ed gein wanted a sex- change, but could not aford it, so he dug up graves of recently buried middle age women, take their skin of and tanned them, then he put it on his body, and pretended to be his mother!! He is One sick dude! If you ask me, he is as cruel as th texas chainsaw masacure. At one point the cops searched his house, and this i what they found:
Severd heads as bedposts in the bedroom,
Skin used to make lampshades and upholster chair seats,
Skulcaps made into soup bowls,
A human heart found in a bag,
A face mask made out of real facial skin,
A neckalace made out of human lips,
A waistcoat made up of vigina and breasts,
And a belt made out of nipples.
Now THAT IS SICK!!!!!! Dont E-mail me back!

TRELLY AKA BOWWOW in california at 2006-05-28 18:20:51
i wonder if it is a true story. i wonder if the man that committed all these crimes is alive or dead. well if he is alive how come he has not been found yet. hell well maybe he is a great hider after all. well all i'm trying to say is if he's alive he needs to be caught and i mean a.s.a.p im wondering if he regreated all the things he done ior if ever looked back and asked himself why he would do such stupid crime. i wonder uf he has the power to start up again and start all over in becoming the taxes chain saw massacre. well if he does here's a little advice please stop and just let it be known that all those people you killed will not come back and i think it is bests if you turn yourself in to the police. im telling you man it';s foreal. a wise man always told me when you do something in the past it will always catch up with you in the new years coming. so read these words and think twice before acting out to kill someone again mr.

My comment is not really about the movie but about some of the things that can happen. While there is no doubt that in todays society people are loosing it, if you know what I mean, there are people who are experiencing things that would make your jaw drop. I know because I have had some really crazy, for lack of a better word, happen to me. The movies make the bad guy out to be a monster. Well let me tell you the bad guy can be the greatest guy you know. People never really show you all of them, so be carefull!

MJS in Ft. Lauderdale Florida at 2006-05-12 02:02:31
I hate to burst everyone's bubble and am truely NOT trying to be offensive towards anyone because , that is not my style . I grew up 3 years in Brownsville Texas and can tell you that the infamous ' Leatherface ' did exist . The house that it all happened in was torn down many years ago and the psycho's name was NOT Thomas Hewitt , it was Thomas Howard DiGent . The re-make of the movie is closer to the story that everyone who remembers the situation has described long befor the re-make . I wish this was not true but it is . The original however was based on Ed Gein more than the facts . Thomas did indulge in cannabalism but that was more of an inferiority issue and hatred for all human kind . As I understand it , it all came to light in the late 60's or early 70's and the movie ( from the stories the natives of the area told me ) it is true that Thomas met his demise when he returned to the basement of his home and safe haven . This however was not befor he killed 2 officers and wounded 3 others and yes , he was injured by the girl and yes she did steal the baby from the family but according to the natives of Brownsville , the baby was a product of a woman that Thomas and his brother raped repeatedly and kept alive for that sole purpose . As far as everything else goes , I do not remember much of the info. but for so many people in Brownsville to tell the same exact story repeatedly , I doubt that the story is fictional ....

the whole story is scary a bit and the killer probly had a reason to do what he did to the people he killed.this story is crazy about wearing skin but this all makes alittle bit of sence and i can believe that it wasnt real.


tj in ny at 2006-04-30 16:34:31
was this the truth about him useing the chainsaw


brenden in missouri at 2006-04-30 15:08:55

Something is wrong.. lol and it is not the question! LOL


Stephanie in San Bernardino,CA at 2006-04-28 01:53:35
My question is actually for you.Do you think the Texas chainsaw massacre was wrong to do what he did? Do you think he wanted to enjoy the world at some point of time like every one else wants to? why cant people just leave others alone,that way we would'nt have to hurt someone the way we feel.A five year old child has been killd,she's hanging from a tree,rope is tied around her neck,her lips are stitched to her cheeks so she is smiling at you.She looks so pretty with her yellow dress full of her own blood but the really cute thing is she's holding a beautiful black rose.Do you see anything wrong with that picture?

Why does anyone kill Mckensey? Guess he got joy out of it. Who knows. He skinned them cause he would wear their faces. He had a skin disease so he wasn't very handsome, so he'd fix that up with a whole different face.


J.P. in M.O. at 2006-04-24 18:04:17
there was a texas chainsaw massacre


MCKENSEY ROMO in VICTORIA TX at 2006-04-24 17:17:18
why did he kill his victims and skin them.


in Texas at 2006-04-24 05:11:14
Everyone in my area knows it is true. We had a discussion about it in school. My teacher said he remembers hearing about it when he was younger. He said it was in the news and everything.


Ed G in at 2006-04-23 11:54:44
Jake, you make it sound like everyone in Texas agrees with you. You only need to read other comments on this page to know that's not true.


Jake in Newt at 2006-04-23 02:50:38
It is a true story! If you lived in Texas, you'd know. We all know around here.

in at 2006-04-17 14:35:49
The only similar thing with Ed Gein and Leatherface is that he skinned the victims and left body parts around the house. That's it.


JenJen in All over the place! at 2006-04-17 02:24:36
Oh and for Wes. They do say what his middle name is. Thomas BROWN Hewitt. I am a big fan of the movie and they do say it in the movie.


JenJen in All over the place! at 2006-04-17 01:44:16
You all say that The Texas Chainsaw Massacre isn't true. You all say it is about Ed Gein. But what Ed did didn't really show in this film, so how can it be about him? He didn't use a chainsaw and etc. I think it is a whole different thing. Like Psycho! What does Psycho have to do with Gein? Silence of the lambs.. I get that one a bit. But the other 2 movies. I don't see how they EVEN relate with Ed Gein. I know this won't help or change your minds, but my dad lived in Texas in the 70's. He said he lived there and heard about it when it was going on. He said it was on the news and in newspapers and everything. He isn't one to lie. But alot of people on here have stories and you all shrug it off cause of your own beliefs. But to the ones who agree with me.. I thought I'd share that!

i want to know a full story how this happened
and if the killer was real
and what you think is true


Ed G in at 2006-04-11 10:57:58
Loose, you are thinking of Robert Elmer Kleason, who killed two missionaries in Texas. He is confused with the Texas Chainsaw Massacre because he is the subject of a film called 'The Real Texas Chainsaw Massacre'. But his murders came after the first Texas Chainsaw Massacre film, so there's no connection.


loose in england at 2006-04-10 20:54:16
is it true that when he escaped the us marshalls he set up home in great britain in a sleepy town called barton upon humber and ifso where was his house ps thankyou......................


??? in New Zealand at 2006-04-08 04:50:13
Hey it's me again! if anyone has any information on Tobe Hooper and his intentions behind creating the movie id love to hear about it. its for my History project cheers!


??? in New Zealand at 2006-04-08 03:48:56
Hey ive been studying the truth behind the texas Chainsaw Massacre and for all those people saying its true you are sort of right. The Director Tobe Hooper based it lightly on a murderer Ed Gein who killed his victims with a .22. Even though he didn't use a chainsaw on his victims he did use their body parts to decorate his house and he work a mask made of female skin because he desperately wanted to be a female.
Tobe Hooper also said that he got the idea for the movie when he was in wards hardware store standing infront of a display of chainsaws. then he mixed that idea with some of the traits of ed Gein to produce the Texas Chainsaw MAssacre.

okay so as it says in the first paragraph the movie is only coincidence well i only have one question, at the end of the movie it has footage of the masked man{alleged killer} well is that true and if so, It was told that they never found him caught him ect.... Is any of this fact? That is quite scary because if this is true who knows he could be a regular old man by now living a regular life. Hell i could be typing to the guy. Do you see what im saying? well thank you for your time please get back to me

trooper harkin in travis county at 2006-03-14 20:45:44
tracy - yes, unfortunetly, the uncanny episodes of tcm are to an extent true - although like most movies it has been greatly exagerated - there was a thomas hewitt - please read earlier posts i have made - & some of the events that occurred are true. i was part of a covert operation to try & apprehend mr hewitt before he went on his 'killing spree'. his family were totally protective of him - constantly lying about his whereabouts & 'hiding' him to great effect. i am at the moment going through hundreds of interview notes at the moment to compile the '30 year transparency order' for the release of such sensitive material into the public domain...mr hooper carried out extensive research for his film - but travis county is a very close-knit community & as such - like our subsequent investigations - came up against a 'wall' of silence on many occassions....my report will be too long to post here - but i will promise to post any 'new' & 'relevant' postscripts here


Tracy in Texas, Dallas at 2006-03-14 06:55:55
My 13 yr. old son talked me into watching the new TCM tonight. After the movie, he asked that I do a search and find out if it's true. First of all, my 13 yr. old shouldn't have watched the movie, yes, I know this, but we had fun anyway. Oh well, during my search I found many sites claiming that the story was false and only a few that say it's real.
I was actually shocked because I had been raised to believe this story in Texas was true. I enjoyed this site very much and it was neat to read about the story. But, I still have questions as to the truth of it.
Trooper, I gather you know that this story is true?
Just still seeking answers for my son.
Just curious!
Anyone who would like to shed some light on what to really tell my son would be appreciated.
Thanks!


slim in south carolina at 2006-03-13 14:32:17
i think that this little passage was off the chain!!!!!!
not just playing, but the movie was off the chain 4 real!@#$!@#$!@#$


jules in scotland at 2006-03-12 18:32:19
last night i spent 8 hrs searching and speaking to people within travis county. turns out the only murder actaully committed in travis county that actually bore any resemlence to this fable was that commited by robert elmer kleason. who was accused of murdering 2 mormon males then chopping there heads of with a bandsaw. (a floor mounted device similar to chainsaw).brian case of the travis county district attonrneys office was there at the time stated:
“These two Mormon missionaries had kind of struck up an acquaintanceship with Kleasen and they would go into the routine of visiting Kleasen who would feed them venison,” Case said.

Suspicious grew about Kleasen’s intentions because of his strange behavior and because of a previous conviction for illegal poaching. The local church asked the missionaries to stop witnessing for Kleasen.

“They said they already had a meeting scheduled and that they would tell him that they couldn’t minister for him any more,” Case said. “When they never came back suspicions went on for a while.”

Police eventually arrested Kleasen on an unrelated shooting case from New York and obtained a search warrant for his property.

In 1976 Kleasen was convicted of the murders and put on Texas’ death row, but the verdict was reversed when the search warrant used to access Kleasen’s property was found to be deficient.

Kleasen was then sent to New York to face time for the prior shooting. While in prison he began a pen-pal relationship with Marie Longley of England.

“He told her he was a warden as the explanation as to why the mail came from prison,” Case said. “He got out and then married this woman.”

Living in England, he told people he was a Korean War hero, awarded a Medal of Honor, an ex-CIA operative, a doctor and a weapons expert.

“I guess they were believing these stories about his military background,” Case said. “He actually ended up being a consultant to the Humberside Police department as a weapons expert.”

At some point someone in England visited a website that listed Medal of Honor winners – and Kleasen wasn’t on the list. Further checking found that he had lied on his application to become an arms dealer.

“That was in 1999 and that got the ball rolling as far as extradition and prosecutions,” Case said. “He kept his wife as a house slave and she was terrified of him by the time he was arrested.”

After lengthy extradition proceedings, Kleasen was about to be returned to Travis County where DNA evidence conclusively connected him to the missionary murders. Before he could be extradited, Kleasen died on April 21, 2003 of heart failure in England. He was 69 years old.

“In a nutshell that was it,” Case said. “He was a very bizarre and weird guy to say the least.”

Although both the actual murders and the movie take place in the early 1970’s, with victims chopped up using a looped electronic blade, and the victims themselves were visitors who innocently came to the door of a rural Travis County home, the movie was not based on the Kleasen case.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre was filmed in 1973 and vaguely inspired by the case of Ed Gein, a Wisconsin serial killer in the 1950s who inspired movies such as Psycho and Silence of the Lambs. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre premiered Oct. 17, 1974, the murders occurred on Oct. 28, 1974.

for ppl looking fr the truth yes it is true a serial killer escaped but not thomas hewitt. hes now dead and those in travis county can rest assured there is no thomas hewitt and never has been.

oh ppl u have to get a grip. this was based on other murders where the guy skinned his victims. these ppl who swear they know someone who was there etc are the same ppl who swear they know someone abducted by an alien. its nothing more than an urban legend made to keep ppl guessing. if he did exsist he wouldve been human not bloody jason. of course hed be dead but the fact is its a MOVIE. as for ppl on this claiming to have some fact but not bieng privvy to diclose all facts i say convieniante eh?. if this guys exists then so does dracula, the loch ness monster and anything else fabricated to make money and keep ppl talking. it has the rumours to ensure its success...like the excorcist. no1 will remember house of wax but due to the hype of this the texas chainsaw massacre will always be a topic of discussion because ppl wont believe the facts.

Serial Killer in TX at 2006-03-07 10:01:12
Does anyone know what documentation is?
Does anyone know what a documentry is?
Sounds almost the same!
If the first TCM was a true story it would be called a documentry which documents true facts. It says inspired by a true story. Which means you take fact and manipulate it to your preferance. TCM 2003 Special Edition has a extra feture about Ed Gein 'the serial killer that inspired the movies.' There is your documentation. That is where Hooper got his inspiration to write and direct this movie. Not out of some Texas newspapper clippings, or telavised news report.

Also, on cable A&E everynow, and then they have specials on serial killers [Bundy, Gayse, Manson, etc.], but no 'CHAINSAW MASSACRE'; because he's a fictional character.
Don't feel bad! Everyone I know thinks he really existed too! Funny that a movie would start a legend. Another thing the disclosure of where Hooper got his inspiration covers him in legal situations. He told you so!


Wes in Tyler at 2006-03-06 20:20:13
trooper harkins travis county. the movies don't give the middle name of mr. hewitt. there for you can't prove your're talking about the same man. thats like me naming a character john smith. no telling how many there are! your obviously not a detective. he's not real.


wes in Tyler, TX. at 2006-03-06 20:10:40
Before, I said I talked to a reliable source; that worked at RSH. That was in the 80's. Today people say he isn't there anymore, but was there. The first TCM 1974 said it happened in Neut, TX. Filmed outside of Austin. Hooper is from Austin, TX. No wounder it was filmed around there. The 2003 Special Edition says on the back of the box. 'inspired by Ed Gein'. I say its debunked, and nothing more than another urban legend.

These post are for adding info. Not asking Questions! Read!


benn merrick in walsall at 2006-03-06 17:55:06
i really want to know more about the texas chainsaw massacre


trooper harkin in travis county at 2006-03-06 15:24:02
the disclosure of mr hewitts 'resting place' is known only to the fbi & mr hewitts immediate family...as forementioned the location of his grave has not been publicised due to the 'threat' of 'glorification' by a minority - who could potentially turn his grave into a glorified 'shrine'....


BENJI in AT HOME at 2006-03-06 02:35:29
what do you think that ever happen to mr,leather face the story continius
but the all end the same way
how about talking a little more about his life and what ever happen to him


haylee in cali at 2006-03-06 02:23:10
i dont understand, was there a guy who realy cut peoples skin off and put it on his face? and was there two reporters who got killed and is this mystery still un solved?


mason long in bend oregon at 2006-03-06 01:48:58
were cani look up the record of thomas on the compuer of the fbi


Pavel in Russia, Moscow at 2006-03-06 01:11:19
There are so many sites about this story, some say that it's true, other sites say that the story was based Ed Gein. I dont know what to believe or where the truth is, but you can check these sites about Ed Gein:
http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/Palms/6923/truth.html
http://www.houseofhorrors.com/gein.htm
He died long time ago, in 1984, so dont worry. And people who live nearby could simply gather with friends and visit this place to find out some facts. At least for me it would be exciting and interesting.


Daniella in Arlington, Texas at 2006-03-05 23:32:49
So obviously, this Thomas guy, or Texas Chainsaw guy isn't alive any more? Where exactly is Travis county? I'm afraid that that particular location is too close to where I live right now. And just because he's buried, doesn't mean he is DEAD!!!!! Oh snips people, he could still be walking the grounds, I wish you could actually show, or tell something to prove that there isn't a leather-faced killer on the loose, or still alive. Tell me what you think, and tell me quick!!!


trooper harkin in travis county at 2006-03-05 20:08:25
....thomas leonald hewitt is dead - he died in 1987 & has been buried in an unmarked grave so as it is not 'used' as a shrine to 'would-be' serial-killer enthusiasts - thomas is survived by a brother who still resides in the travis county area....


Wes in Jacksonville Texas at 2006-03-04 09:34:21
Jacksonville is north of Rusk about 10mi. I know many people that work at the Rusk State Hospital. Yes! Leatherface is, or was there. The phone number is 903-683-3421. I don't know if they will tell you anything since things are confidencial. I have spoken with a reliable sorce that said they fead him in a locked room that they feed through a door. Is he there today? Was he one of the immates that broke out over the years? Did he die? I don't know! There is evadence of him being there in the past. Almost everyone around her will tell you he is there. The Movie was filmed on the outskirts of Austin, Texas not in Austin. The story took place in West Texas. I also herd that it happened in North East Texas.
If he is still there and hasn't died. Someone ought to take a picture of him with one of those new camera phones. Smile!LOL.

your movie is so cool it is the best scary movie i have eva seen


trooper harkin in travis county at 2006-02-26 17:32:43
the trooper who was incarcerated in the dallas state institution had a superficial laceration caused by a cerrated edged 'cutting' device, most probably a chainsaw, which required 73 stitches...his name was state trooper carville who was from the travis county area. thomas leonald hewitt has been state registered as being a 'danger to the general public'...he was questioned by the travis county police dept on 05/14/72 over an incident involving other juveniles where a 14 year old youth was stabbed twice in the abdomen during an altrication involving 4 youths....when questioned during testimony the youths reported hewitt as being ' totally psychotic'...a curfew was placed upon hewitt whereas he was to report to travis county p.d. twice daily...after 17 days hewitt failed to attend & a court summons was issued for his apprehension...he has since failed to be in police custody..


jason in plainfield illinois at 2006-02-26 04:38:20
i got that there was no chainsaw but i was wondering when the movie ended the officer got hit is the officer really hit and is the mystery of thomas hewitt/leatherface solved

trooper harkin in travis county at 2006-02-25 20:57:08
ok folks...whilst i can't reveal all that actually happened hopefully i'll be able to enlighten you...there was a case involving a family whose only son had a major facial disfigurement....it is also known that several persons 'disappeared' in their local neighborhood & have since been classed as 'missing' persons....their files are still open as i write this....4 state troopers were called to an address & 1 returned & is now confined to a state institution in texas....the other 3 troopers have also been classed as 'missing persons whilst on active duty'...their patrol car was never found!! the cia were closely involved with this case - but the 'files' remain within their dept. for which no-one has access - the movie has been mostly inspired upon 'speculation' - however snippets of the truth has leaked out to the media....i know a bit more but am not privy to divulge as we are sworn to testament on such cases. hope this helps...

unlisted in indiana at 2006-02-20 03:48:20
We had just finished watching this movie. Man it was scary =0. We totally thought this was real, y would they lie at the end stating that there were no records of him n all tht stuff about that being the only footage of him?...w/e this movie gave us the creeps.

this is a gross movie. absolutely disgusting. kinda bad too.


Bundle in at 2006-02-19 23:20:40
So instead of contacting the police, Sterling, you thought you'd jump online with your laptop, spend time looking for this page and then leave your message for someone to hopefully find in the next few seconds, even though it's blatantly obvious that this isn't a chat room. Well I do hope you managed to escape ok - maybe if you threw your laptop at them it could save you a couple of seconds. Don't forget to disconnect fromt he internet first ;-)


maxineo in nsw at 2006-02-19 04:41:03
i been told that the movie is true so if the movie is not true why do they say its true?


maxineo in nsw at 2006-02-19 04:38:14
the movie is so good


sterling in at the horror house at 2006-02-19 02:28:25
Pleas I really need help I am at the horror house. I just escaped hurry I am by a tractor.Get the poliece I have my laptop with me.


in at 2006-02-18 15:11:34
why do they say it is true


zack in scotland at 2006-02-16 19:32:05
I have heard that the Texas Chainsaw Massacre is based on Ed Gein, but why make up the story? And base it on a true one? At the end of the the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, the updated one which was made in the 2000's, it state and i quote 'the case today still remains open' also has police fottage, and states the two officers where fately wounded that day, by the killer Thomas Hewitt. Also states and i quote again 'this is the only known image of Thomas Hewitt, the man they call Leatherface' so why did they say these things if they are not true? Also why is there police footage found, if the story isnt true? If you could get back to me to answer my questions, i will be very greatful.

scary


in at 2006-02-16 06:39:53
ok go to www.my space.com/horrorfanatic according to this drayton sawyer spent the 60s as a college teacher maybe he had a influence on other murders on college campuses who knows maybe the killers on campuses is trying to keep the saw family alive maybe there kin who knows.


in at 2006-02-16 05:46:30
it also said this family is to be cosiderd dangerous and that bubba had scars on him possibly from a mishap from a chainsaw ill find the web again and ill relay to this 1 because im courious about it myself to find out what he actually did .


in at 2006-02-16 05:42:51
look i went to a web about it im trying to find it again but according to the file it said he was causion 300 pounds and is name was bubba sawyer and his dad was drayton sawyer i tried to research the family trreee and came up with both names but it didnt give enough info im going to research some more and try to find a family member to get facts but it was either in hewitt texas or travis county good luck .


in texas at 2006-02-16 05:25:30
look at it this way it may be true but the directors of the movie cant make a movie of a familys life without there permission so if i were to make a movie of a familys life i would beat around the bush also.

Niamh bigham, yes if you lived in Texas Leatherface would come to your house and kill you with a big rusty chainsaw! much the same as people in England wear bowler hats and drink tea 24/7!

desmonf in zeeland michigan at 2006-02-05 15:25:35
why is the texas chainsaw massacre such a stupid guy by killing those people.


sabre in england at 2006-02-05 13:15:38
i just want to know if the texas chainsaw massacre is true and if so then is that psycho murder dead or alive? one last question, is leather face real? and is he dead?


brittany in huh? at 2006-02-05 04:08:03
y do they put true story if its really not i like it better when it really is a ture story it gives u a scared felling and makes the movie better!


Rachel in Liverpool, England at 2006-02-05 03:03:07
In Florida: I'm not going to comment on whether this story is true or not as I don't actually know, but the fact is that whilst police and government are not stupid, there are plenty of cases where murderers have never been caught and very gruesome cases have never been (and probably never will be ) closed. So simply saying it can't be true because the cops and the government are not stupid enough to have not closed the case of Leatherface is a completely inane statement. I'm currently doing a forensics and criminology degree, so I have to read a lot of stuff about true crime, and its amazing the sorts of cases that don't ever get solved, a lot of which on the surface look as though they should be pretty simple to close.


gemma in united kingdom at 2006-02-03 20:23:46
i have seen the original & the new version of this film. I initally found the original scary but since seeing the new version i find the old one laughable. any thoughts?

scrooge in flordia at 2006-01-30 02:54:23
i really think that it might be tru but who knows


Elise in Michigan at 2006-01-29 19:53:05
I'm doing a paper on this movie for Forensics. I need to know... In the 2003 remake of the movie Texas Chainsaw Massacre, the supposed true film clips at the beginning and the end of the movie where it showed a police walk-through of the crime scene were manifested from his thoughts as well? Or was it an actual clip like it portrayed?


lynn in canada at 2006-01-29 03:22:08
I believe the texas chainsaw massacre is half truthed,I believe the movie was based on true events but was embellished for movie making purposes.


nicole in nigeria at 2006-01-27 12:28:01
my favorite kind of movies are strictly-horrors.i deeply enjoyed the movie,but sincerely prayed in my heart, that it didn't happen.it was scary and in-humane in nature.it generally potrayed wits,common sense to take necessary drastic actions,and the dangers of easy trust-eg d friends trustin d sheriff and d man in d wheel chair....


alyaa in canada at 2006-01-26 04:48:47
i think that was pretty scary because i seen the movie they made about him. oh! how nasty he was. just because something happend to hom does not mean other people should suffer. don't you think so? anyway that was a pretty good artical and i'm going to use it for my science fair project. thanks a lot a really apprechate the help evan though you did not kmow you were going to help out a girl with her science fair project.did i mention the show was pretty scary too. sorry if i wasted your time! i do not have an email address so just put it somewhere on this page if you can or have you ever had a comment page before.


Tesla Conway in Wisconsin at 2006-01-26 00:18:44
The Texas chainsaw massacre is so freaky> i was outside in my friend Kayley 's pool and we swore we heard a chainsaw . but we didnt think anything of it so we just kept swimming. Then we hearsd a little girl scream1 this time we got out and cheaked where we heard it and we didnt see anything! so the next night she stayed over and my dog was outside barking ( my dog never barks ) so we brought him inside and when it was time 4 bed my mom went to the bar and after an hour or so we heard athe same thing we heard the day before!!! and it was pitch dark in my house. so stupidly i got up and lokked around a little with a flashlight !!! my dog is protectave so of corse he fl=olowed me and every room we went in he licked my hand!! we only had one room left the bathroom!! i checked to see if my dog was there and he wasnt i again didnt think anything of it i went to the bathroom and turned on the light!! looked around a little !!!! and i am so weird i looked in the bathroom and sadly i saw my doggy hanging from the showerhead!!! then i saw his blood dropplets and it spelt people can lick hands too !! kayley finally noticed i woke up and she came in to the bathroom and saw me cring !! i told her why and all and she said my dog was with her almost all nite until 30 mins ago !! so after a few days we found out that a sprit was licking my hand!!!!This has vert little to do with the chainsaw massacare but it is weird but very tragic!!! * *

Deborah Hurlbut in Berry Creek, CA at 2006-01-18 08:48:57
what is the real base evidance about the texas chainsaw massacare was he caught or is there still any of that stuff still going on in that particulure area.


Dan in nj rox yur sox at 2006-01-18 00:11:01
frum wut i heard its not. Many just believe Gein a sick twisted murderer inspired it along with many other horror movies but that with out a dout can'tbe responsible for the whole story there might be sum truth to the texas chain saw massacre that only sum believe but we may never know.


aaliyah in atlanta at 2006-01-17 23:48:08
is the story true or not


Dan in NJ rox yur sox at 2006-01-17 22:59:01
omg this freaks me out i just read up on gein and all the sick perverted things he did and i can't believe the similarities. once i saw that he was sum whut obsessed with his mother i thought of norman bates and another movie with sum guy who talked to his dead mother. in that movie they showed the man as a little kid and his mother made him where a dress which ultimately made him crazy and she would tell him to kill others (but she was dead). any one got any other websites i can read about gein?? i wanna kno if there is any truth behind TCM or if it was alljust inspired by Edd gein.


Melissa in KY at 2006-01-17 17:52:36
The house that is still standing that you all are talking about is the one that was used in the movie and it was relocated to another destination and is now serving as a resturant!!


Melissa Whitworth in KY at 2006-01-17 17:44:03
Read my comments dated 12.23 that is all your answers. There is Ed Gein's website about him and what they found in his house and where the house WAS(not standing anymore). When you read the bio you'll pick up things you already have seen in movies. Leatherface is not real this guy was and is scary enough to think that ONE guy inspired all these horror movie plots. ONE GUY! That should scare you enough, not Leatherface's story. Also, check out the other web-site about Emily Rose. That should give you an idea how movies tend to change from what actually happen.


hillary in kansas at 2006-01-16 19:36:39

marisa in victoeia,tx at 2006-01-16 08:00:49
if there is no thomas hewitt then why are there so many websites saying there are and that the killings in travis county did happen. i know about gein and the similarities but how can ppl fus come up with TCM over night. did thry just come up with the name Thomas Hewitt the farmhouse and the evidence???

melissa in Texas at 2006-01-13 01:22:02
if what you say is true, then were did all this killings happen, the story is based on events right well what events. was there really a person killing all this people, and if there is were is the sourvivor because someone has to survive in order to tell the story. did the police catch the guy because in the texas chainsaw massacre it says that they never capture him what really hapen?


Brittany Moore in North Carolina at 2006-01-12 18:06:33
Well I have been a Big Fan of The Texsas Chainsaw Massacare Movies all my life.I am Scared of Leatherface.

Katie in in my living room at 2006-01-08 05:36:50
why and how are you soo sure that it isnt true? if the people/survivors say that thats what they went through, and thats what happened, then why dont you believe them? they were the ones that went through it, not you. so isnt there this posibility that it IS what happened and you just dont know it?


in Florida at 2006-01-02 20:56:11
How do you think the director to the 2003 version get that film of the cops being killed?... no one but cops and fbi agents and investigators have access to thoes films! Idk you guys believe wat you want but i think the movies is based on Ed. Gain... Cops and the government are not stupid enough to not be able to close the case of leather face... so of corse its all myth...


Renee in MA at 2005-12-29 17:18:09
Ok now im really sad... but if it is not a true story, how come in the movie they have the police in the basement with all of the evidence? In the basement they were showing the nails and chainsaw... and they showed a image of the texas chainsaw ... and thay said they are still working on teh crime of leather face!!!!! please answer me back, i wanna know the answer!


Melissa in KY at 2005-12-23 18:00:08
John to your answer: the house is actually in Plainfield,Wisconsin and here is a little bio of Ed Gein showing pic.s of the house and a really gross pic. of Bernice W. body when they found it. So even though the movie itself is not true but this guy inspired ALOT of horror films and you will know why after reading the bio. http://www.houseofhorrors.com/gein.htm


Melissa in KY at 2005-12-23 16:10:09
Sorry for messaging so much but about movies based on true stories and events this movie is a really good example how producers, writers, etc..change the story, The Exorcism of Emily Rose. Actually this was a VERY SAD story about a very sick girl which took place in Europe not the U.S. and her real name is Anneliese Michel. Good web-site if you all are interested
http://www.themovieblog.com/archives/2004/10/hollywood_to_tarnish_the_story_of_anneliese_michel.html.


Melissa in KY at 2005-12-23 15:53:43
Chris, to answer your questions. I read about serial killers and famous murders. Usually when movies say they are based on true stories or true events, in a way, they are based on the fact that they took pieces of events to start their plot with and then their imagination goes wild from there. With this piece the actual horror events from the movie was what was in that house when the police came, which was a true event. To me that is horror enough to walk in a kitchen like that and to have only kill two people. Pretty gross. The footage in the movie is probably real but when they went down stairs that was added. You can do so much editing now without you noticing something was added.


Melissa in KY at 2005-12-23 15:40:03
Didn't his insanity start when he was young and him and his older brother didn't really have a life because of the mother. And did he finally lose it one day and ventured off with his bother in the woods and killed him and caught the woods on fire. But when police came to look for his brother, Ed some how directed the police in the direction his brother was and police found him but the grass around him was not burned but they still didn't think his on brother (Ed) did it. And I think he, also around that time, was starting to kill animals out of fun. Is this true with this story or not.


Chris in in Colorado at 2005-12-23 05:40:39
Thanks for the information, but if it didn't happen, then what was all that 'Actual footage' I saw on the 2003 Movie?

i was with my friends with our sk8bords smelled a horrible smell then we moved on to see wht was it me and my friends saw blood and a finger then we ran to get the police then they said that it was cut by a chainsaw


MaybeSomeday in South Dakota at 2005-12-10 17:41:45
I don't know if this is true or not, but I've heard that the man who committed the supposed Texas Chainsaw Massacre only killed three victems, a man who molested a woman, then the woman went on to molest a young boy. He killed them all, there was never a group of five teenagers who stumbled upon a horrific murderer.


Madison in Texas at 2005-12-09 20:36:40

You know its hard to tell if its true or not. Some websites say its true and some say its just make believe I say nobody knows the truth.

sorry to break it to you none believer's but the texas chainsaw massacre is real it really happened it happened in west texas and the guy that is responsible for it is like 30 minutes away from where i live in the rusk state hospital sorry to break it to you!


Anastasia Beaverhousing in New York at 2005-11-21 15:17:08
the day a comment comes into this site that has proper grammar and actually makes sense, I'll think about reading it. Texas Chainsaw Massacre is not real, it's a story about Ed Gein with true facts but not a true storyline.


jessica la in houston,tx at 2005-11-21 01:57:51
i watched the movie but i wanted to know more information.
i looked it up and i am looking more into it!
im going to try to see what really happend there at the time of the CHAINSAW MASSACARE!


Brittney in Pembroke Pines at 2005-11-19 17:37:29
My dad said he remembers when everthing was happening, and watching it on the news.... But then agian he was really small. I don't believe its true because after watching the movie, I really wanted to look it up, and read more into it, cause it seemed kinda interesting. So when I went to look it up it all lead to Ed Gein, and there was one website of the Director being interviewed, and he was saying it wasent a true story, though the idea came from Ed Gein, and something about seeing someone with a chainsaw. I will try to find the website for you guys....


John noland 12 years old in OH Wilmington at 2005-11-19 13:29:35
But my friends say the whole story is true. should i tell them wrong?

casey in texas at 2005-11-14 18:11:14

brittney crafton in in abilene tx at 2005-11-11 18:20:04
hey is leather face dead or put in prison for life


Bundle in at 2005-11-10 09:22:47
The documentary 'The Real Texas Chainsaw Massacre' isn't actually about the Texas chainsaw massacre at all. Robert Elmer Kleason killed these Mormon chaps AFTER the first film was made. He used a saw to dispose of their bodies. The film was based on Ed Gein, not something that happened after it was made!


Bel Jones in australia at 2005-11-10 02:14:30
Monica, last night on Crime Channel there was a story on 'The Real Texas Chain Saw Masacre'. It adds another twist to the reality of the movie. The story was about a man called Robert (elma) gleeson who was arrested and charged in Austin Texas for murdering two Mormans. He got out on a technicality and moved to Britian. I don't think it is accurate in relation to the movie but it might be worth a look. I think the thing about this movie it is a whole lot of serial killers rolled into one. There are elements of the Manson family in this movie as well.


monica carlson in Marne Iowa at 2005-11-10 00:03:17
I am working on an English speech and i needed to know some information on the texas chainsaw massacre, cuz i am having troubles finding any info that is useful. So if ne one can help me plz email me!


Narissa Oates in perth wa at 2005-11-09 11:33:02
hey yeah i watch a lot of crime investigation and i have watched it before yeah i think its true but how many people did he exzactley kill and i would love to get inside his mind and just see and understand what he was thinking like not actully be come a killer but to get inside a killers mind would be real great because i would just really want to know what they are think and why they do that sort of stuff...


larry jackson in lima ohio at 2005-11-08 17:41:57
Will we ever know the truth behind texaschainsaw massacre enlighten me


steve in australia at 2005-11-08 00:28:33
hi i thank that its a kool movie but i dont thank he used a chainsaw i thank that he is real but i dont thank that he used a chainsaw buy


Whitewolf in IL. at 2005-11-05 21:30:46
I really don't know if it happened for sure or not, but the movie was great. All my friends think it happened.


becky in middlesbrough england at 2005-11-04 23:37:00
ok you say this movie is based partly on what he did but i did a search for Ed Gein on based on the case notes that i have read it sounds more likely that Silence of the Lambs was based on what he did making a human suite out of womens body parts how ever if the texas chain saw massacre was based on him and what he did were did the chain saw come in to it or did the film writers just add that in for a more horrific afect and if possible i would like to know why i have been told by poeple who have watched the origonal movie have stated that this was infact a snuff movie


JANA in arkansas at 2005-11-04 21:44:53
How do you know if it's true where you there when it was in the news paper? Did you see it for you self? You can't just say that its not true if you were not there! There is no doubt in my mind that it really happen'ed...I'am sure it did'nt happen the way it is in the movie but it did happen... And there was really 5 teen's.It happen'ed in travis,co texas on route 17....

Laura Evans in Sterling hgts, MI at 2005-11-01 19:16:06
I loved the movie. I thought Jessica did a great job. I f this story was not real, the writers sure did a great job of creating a creepy horror film. So is there a real leather face from Texas who got teased in school and went crazy or is it all made up?


terron burks in tallahasse at 2005-10-31 17:57:44
what is his name


emily in manchester, england at 2005-10-31 10:19:39
Yep, the Texas Chainsaw Massacre isn't actually scene by scene the truth. There was no teenagers. BUT Tobe Hooper based the original on Ed Gein; a loner from Wisconsin who killed ladies and used their skin to decorate his house. He would dance in costumes made of their skin and made ornaments and furniture out of their bones. He cut the ladies genitals out and danced round his house with them in his underpants ewww. Leatherface was created from Ed Gein's persona. There was no 'Texas Chainsaw Massacre'- but the scary bit is that Ed Gein did actually exist. He did these horrific deeds and, when questioned over the womens disappearances by the police, he simply said to them 'yeah, i know her, shes hanging up on my wall and the other ladies body parts are in my fridge'...as if this was normal! So Leatherface is real. The real horror is that people like Leatherface/Ed Gein do exist in this world, and that they think its normal to commit these sick, necrophiliac acts. This information is straight from Tobe Hoopers mouths, and a documentary called 'Scream and scream again'. There is actually a film called 'Ed Gein' is you want to watch that.


Michelle Davis in San Antonio Tx at 2005-10-31 04:38:54
this whole story is true,people are really a trip and live in so much denial till it's pathetic. you have people who don't believe slavery happened but it did, people don't believe that hitler did what he did,but it's true.

Kelly in Detroit, MI at 2005-10-28 07:05:10
I recently rented a documentary about the making of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and wondered why none of the actors portraying victims were interviewed. Only the actors portraying the killers appeared in the film.


Deanna Bass in California at 2005-10-28 03:31:38

Katrina Prise in Maine at 2005-10-26 14:39:14
If the movie wasn't based on a true story then why did they create such a movie, when they know that movie's like that have a effect on people. I mean yeah the movie was really cool, but it was also really gross. The more people that watch it the more people that are bound to think that it's true, and a lot of teenages think the movie is really cool, and if the teenagers think that it's cool then younger more immature audiences are more likely to watch it. I know a lot of parents that don't allow thier chiidren to watch those kinds of movie, but one way or the other those kids a going to see the movie.


stuart jenkins in england at 2005-10-26 12:16:34

when the murder were start to hit them to death (@POLICE MAN)the (CAMERA) Record all the action. but hey people, i saw more horrible reall story than this that happened iin my country(iran)couple years ago...it was a man who had a taxi and he use to pick up hot women , had sex with all of them, and kill them so bad and hard...he killed more than 100 people...


Persian Power in at 2005-10-24 01:34:15
THIS STORY IS TRUE. WHY? the second update movie of TCM, if you see the exact end of movie, you will see the 2 police officer, they went to the house but they tought all those thing that, that girl were telling them was n't true, but they just go inside the house (just 2 of them , and one of them had a camera) one of the officer was talking and showing the way to the camera police man, but SUDDENLT thomas(KILLER) that was hidding behind the door, hit both officer with a big hammer and killed both of them and for 3 seocond you can see his mask and reall thomas...nobody knows where is he, and they never catch him......CAuse is still OPEN.


Persian Power in at 2005-10-24 01:03:44
this was reall...and oh my god...just imagin if you were one of those people that died....well, i really think that some people they are different with other people and maybe they never loved or they never had a good time in thier life, or maybe they like to eat the human body....i hope one they everyone undrestand that everyperson has to be loved and has to live his/her life.......but nobody knows what's ganna happen in the future except GOD..........


amber c in leicestershire at 2005-10-23 19:30:18
Tobe Hooper is a genius, so much admiration for the bloke that my son is named after him, middle name is Gage after the evil kid in pet semetary, god knows he's living up to him. Without the scalpel.


amber c in leicestershire at 2005-10-23 19:20:33
The Texas chainsaw massacre is the only horror film that actually does what it says on the tin. I can't believe they remade it! Don't fix what isnt broken, Gunner

the film was good a bit fake but good if the speical affects were as good as the film it would be great like harry potter the peaple make the first film great so evey1 watches the rest


Shadow in Illinois at 2005-09-26 14:48:52
I weep for the future. Most of you seem to be gullible little sheep that believe any the Hollywood puts on the screen and claims it's real. And apparently, most of you couldn't spell properly to save your own lives. The TCM is nothing more than part of Ed Gein's story wrapped around an urban legend. I must say, thanks for the laughs reading your posts. Hilarious.

for that lady to get put in an insane hospital and die there. She was the original and only survivor to make it out alive her brother was killed along with three other friends.For her to have gone through that kind of torture and live only to die mumbling the true horror of what she went through. Appearantly you don't have the write story.

The girl survivor said she cut one of his arms off.. He's still out there somewhere..email me at Kidznrg@yahoo.com for more info...Paul

Sarah in Oregon at 2005-09-01 20:27:50
For all you who believe that this movie is based on a true story, let me point out a few things. If it was a true story they wouldn't of made multipule movies and then remade it, and on the cover it says INSPIRED by a true story. wich means some parts of the movies are true.


sam in tauranga at 2005-09-01 10:01:12

I HATE CHAINSAWS...plain and simply.


Trasean in Jamaica at 2005-08-31 10:25:28
I was shocked to hear that it was a true story but its good to know thats its not. I watched a movie before when a man killed another man with a chainsaw and since then I hated the sound of it. Texas Chainsaw Massacre made me hate it more. The thought of being sawes into pieces by a chainsaw terrifies me.


allison marie cook in illinios at 2005-08-30 16:54:04

larissa garcia in tampa at 2005-08-27 00:21:18
i want to know when the texas chainsaw massacre was frist notice?


Karen in Pennsylvania at 2005-08-26 19:09:48
If you look closely at the beiging of the movie it states that in fact this crime did not happen in Texas at all but in Plainfield, Wisconsin. This is a link to the story of Eddie Gein: http://www.crimelibrary.com/gein/geinmain.htm
Although the story tells of a family, in fact it was one man. The movie Texas Chain Saw Masacare was inspried but Eddie's story but it is not a true picture of his life. Therefore, the movie is in fact fictional at best.


susie in texas at 2005-08-26 03:01:23
i am very glad that u cleared this up, i have never believed that we had the texas chainsaw murderer here. i have argued this many times. thank u for clearafieing this.

GEMMA O SHEA in IRELAND at 2005-08-19 15:53:16
why would it ssay its true if u say its not and why does it have a clip of the reporter getting killed by him.


Andrea in Austin, TX at 2005-08-19 07:15:08

tasha in indiana at 2005-08-14 05:49:23
were there any evidence of a whole family knowing these murders too place


Mary in Pennsylvania at 2005-08-14 03:52:38
I find fascination in shows dealing with forensics and past crimes. I believe it was 'American Justice' that told the crimes of Ed Gein and then cross-referenced it to the Texas Chainsaw Massacre story.


bill in australia at 2005-08-13 12:02:20
i dont know what to believe?were is the proof that those things did happend!a video thats all there is that tells the horror story.were is the poor girl who got away?is she still alive?if so i bet she wishes she wasnt.do local people talk about it?why dont they open up the case?please email me with anwsers.


kyle in bahamas at 2005-08-13 00:55:07
i want to know who he is my family loved to know.peple like freg with the wrong peron


TxsmallTown in Texas, Stephens county at 2005-08-12 02:18:16
There was a few murders but there never was any evidense of a chainsaw and other items. the scene did not take place in Tx anyway it wuz happening in Asrizona, My friends grandmother wuz living there when it went down. A man from Tx/researcher.ect took on this slaying story. He rewrote the story and did very good, using many of the scene from the the real crime, but he also edit it to add more Tx life like surroundings. I have been on this research since I was 13, I am 22 now and I still have a obsession with the massacre but this all has been staged and even know you say but there was so much relistic scenes in the case file they show it isnt. You must watch all the films though. You want to beleve it go right ahead, he is still a killer and a famous one at that and remeber anything can look real now days on the Tv. If you do not beleve me reaserch it, I will say it is a very interesting time reading others story and finding the truths. Just look hard and read careful, I sugest you try finding Dates and plces where this man is and was. Goodbye

if the story isn't true, then why on the movie 'tcm' start of a police on investigation and then later mention this was the compelling evidence of thomas hewitt?


margaret in corsicana,texas at 2005-08-11 05:11:57

did u know ed gein he didnt cut people wif chainsaws people made all that up. andsome peolpe say that he killed his brother his brother got burnt on a fire accident


chris meredith in ohio at 2005-08-07 06:50:29
yeah if you could write me back i'm a firm believer of what happened to those 5 kids i believe 1 person made it out alive but is in a government run mental facility to quiet the noise just like roswell they found over 1,000 pieces of evidence including a basement full of mutalated corpses and where was the family i believe they killed thomas sproud hewitts parents during the raid left things alone. then sent 2 reporters there and it even showed exclusive footage of the 2 men's funeral they were detectives they got scared and decided that to leave thomas sproud hewitt alone and no one would get hurt they need to grow balls and go finish the job. they send really bad messages to wannabe murderers that if they buy a creepy house out in the country and kill over 800 people that the cops won't touch them

e-mail me back pleze

Matt in Ontario, Canada at 2005-08-06 21:45:14
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is NOT real. NOT REAL. It is a movie.

The director Tobe Hooper got the idea for the movie while walking around a hardware store. He put his chainsaw idea together with the story of Ed Gein.

That is why the movie says 'inspired' by a true story and 'based' on a true story.

Gein - Man wearing human skin(Gein made a suit of skin because he wanted to make himself look female). Hooper also added the room of furniture made from bones. Gein made lamps out of skin and bones and made furniture made out of bones.


As for the remake...again, it's only a movie. NOT REAL. The footage at the beginning and end are not real. It was filmed with actors when they shot the movie. Look in the credits to see the names of the actors.

I was at a horror convention and met the guy that played l
Leatherface in the remake(Andrew Bryniarski). This year Gunnar Hansen will be at the convention(the actor that played Leatherface in the original).

So everyone PLEASE read up on these movies, so you can realize that they are fiction/made up. There is nothing real to any of them.

That is all. Do your research people...there is no Leatherface or Thomas Hewitt. There is no family of killers. The man that the movie is inspired by died many, many years ago. As for the Real Chainsaw killer, he killed two people and then used a bandsaw. Not a chainsaw. And that was after the movie came out. Like a copycat.


NOT REAL!!!!!!!!!


Kelly in TEXAS BITCH!!! <3 at 2005-08-06 03:12:31
Mwhahahahah! I live in Texas and it so isn't true. I mean the dude's right. It was just parcially based on a true story. But That doesn't mean you can't love the movie. Movies don't have to be real for you to love them. That's why I love movies because they're fake. I hate like real life movies. I want to get lost in a fake world for a little bit so stop bitching. It was an amazing movie thoughhhhh!!! I <3 TEXASSSSS! Hehehheh

veronica in florida at 2005-08-05 17:01:59
ed geins lived in wisconsin he lived there his whole life. the story is some what true but not all of it.thats why they say its based on a true story.


Patrick in New York at 2005-08-05 15:10:55
I think the massacre did happend


Ashley in Texas at 2005-08-03 08:01:31
My dad says its true and that he was living in Texas when he heard of the killings. Hes even passed the gas station there.


Ann Crowe in Australia at 2005-08-03 06:02:27
I watched the movie The Texas Chainsaw with Jessica Biel I would like to know what really happened at the end of the real shocking story of those reporters investigating the texas chainsaw.


robert in in cornelius at 2005-08-02 at 2005-08-03 01:12:11
i think its true even though it sounds kinda cheesy.i mean belts that were made out of nipples,lamps that were made out of bones.do u guys even have proof that he did this?did he confess or what?i need to know some answers!

marisa in canada at 2005-07-29 20:55:19
once again you all have no reason to be scared because they did catch him and send him to a mental hospital. and then he DIED at age 77 from heart disease


marisa in canada at 2005-07-29 20:42:21
carlos in panama city the difference between based on a true story and inspired by a true story is that inspired by has only a couple things right and the rest all wrong and based is what mostly actually happened


marisa in canada at 2005-07-29 20:07:14
ive been doing research on texas chainsaw massacre. that story was NOT based on one but inspired. practically none of that in the movie is true. i do love that movie but it has stuff wrong! 1. thomas hewitt is NOT a real person that is leatherface. yes leatherface was real but his name was Ed Gein. the only thing real in the movie was he hung victims on meat hooks and stole body parts mostly women body parts. now he only had a couple of victims. and he died awhile ago. at the age of 77. so he couldnt possibaly killed one or harmed anybody that is living today or around 10 or something years ago! now ian there were no survivors cuzz if so they are fakes trying to get attention *no offence* ed gein killed around 5 people while living. the rest he just dug up from graves so there is no way he killed any of your friend or relatives. seeing as he killed at age 30ish so that was more than 30 years ago! and so he isnt living right now.


ian in texas at 2005-07-29 07:18:21
I in fact do know that this was a real event, i am a child of one survivor born in Travis County(Austin) in 1979......

Ed G in at 2005-07-26 00:47:39
Christina, you say 'Think about it. How would anyone have ever found out about that house and how leatherface killed all his victums unless someone happened to escape?' But *you* think about it. If the whole thing was a work of fiction, which is what this site is saying, they wouldn't need to find out about Leatherface or his victims.


tiffany in Stansfield at 2005-07-25 21:35:38
just to let all you people know i am from Stansfield, and the story was passed down from generation to gerneration. my great grandmother, and grandmother are still around to tell you people the real story that had happened. Its the job that I got to do to make people like the perso who wrote this garbage about it not being true, tell people that there was a such story. Now we all know the movies depict many things that are unreal. To this day my greatgrandmother will not watch on Texas Chainsaw Massacre movie, but my grandmother states: none of those movies will ever depict what really happened!'. Now she will also tell you that the end of the 2003 remake, the crime scene, is 100 percent actual footage they showed the same footage back in 1943!

Jamie Licence in UK at 2005-07-20 18:41:26
The story of the Texas chainsaw massacar is definately fictional, however there was a man who killed 50 people with a JIGSAW! in the Jennyfield area of Harrogate UK... He then turned the saw on himself, commiting suicide...shame really.


teresa in new york state at 2005-07-20 18:08:17
this isnt true. i bought the movie. it was a 2 disc set, and on the second disc, it had all the information on it about the real guy that 'inspired' the movie. if you do believe this is true, then the movie maker have succeeded in what they wanted--which is --making a movie live forever by people actually thinking it is true. also, along with the 2 discs came some fake evidence pictures.

Why did ed gein kill his brother


Annalisa in Texas at 2005-07-18 11:05:54
I have heard many times that The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is true but, When I got to the internet is just says that it is only based on the story of Ed Gein and I really don't know what to believe so if you could just e-mail me back that would be great. Thanks


jhonny in at 2005-07-15 21:54:30
i think the whole story was true because real facts and clues and if it wasnt real where did they get all the dead bodies from? what about the leather face?


justin in USA at 2005-07-15 08:06:02
sometimes I get really creeped out because if the police never caught the killer then by now he cound be anywhere in the u.s. and i'd like to know where the hewitts house is


JC in N.J. (USA) at 2005-07-13 22:18:47
In the movie the Texas Chain Saw Massacre they showed footage of the actual police going into the killers house and the police officer getting hurt. Is that real? If so, what is that footage really of.


Michał KOŁODZIEJ in Poland at 2005-07-13 12:01:17
I`m write this in polish :) Ten film byl swietny. Moim zdaniem mozna przy tym filmie bylo sie bac. Ja tez sie zastanawialem czy ta historia byla prawdziwa ale widze z powyzszych informacji ze nie. Takie tez mialem wrazenie ze caly ten film zostal stworzony na takiej samej zasadzie jak Blair Witch Project. Pozdro.


sharon taylor in at 2005-07-12 21:02:13
did edward gein actually do all of these things? I've heard lots of stories about the guy, so did her worship his mother and hilled his only brother in a fire in a field.


Krissi in Burnet, Texas at 2005-07-12 07:02:47
My mother told me that she remembered the events... the newspaper headlines and so on... From what I've seen on the sight, they said that the TCM house was in Walburg... that I have not heard... infact, the only house I know of is the one they filmed the first TCM in and that is in Kingsland, Tx turned into a restaurant. I believe it to a point but I also believe that there should be something about it somewhere and there isnt.... so... I need REAL EVIDENCE... a newspaper article...something..


kevin in chicago at 2005-07-12 04:03:01

Kay in St.Louis at 2005-07-10 05:27:10
How do we really know if its true. Because if it is true the guy should be dead right but if it's not true I think it was really rude to say it was real and come to find out it wasnt right. well I mean for a scare maybe not but for us real interested people it was!


tammy in Australia at 2005-07-10 00:55:53
Is the story actually based on a man called bob kleason(gleason) who murdered 33 people that they are aware of in the Dallas Texas area aka leather face who wore the skins


chase kizer in texas at 2005-07-09 00:24:07
Thomas Hewitt does not exist right? was there really teenagers that were on a road trip and the all got killed by the texas chainsaw massacre


anita in texas at 2005-07-08 20:19:14
Was the texas chainsaw massacre acutally real or is it all just a movie......if it is real....it is super scary cuz they never caught that crazy guy!!!!!!!! ps...im scared!!!

even though at the end of the movie they showed some thing it could of been part of the movie because the so called tcm guy got right in front of the camera.....dont u think he would destroy the film leaving no evidence


jimmy in new york at 2005-07-08 17:12:46
the chainsaw massacare is not real,i made some reasearch and the thing that the chainsaw massacare did eddie gien did he were skin,made some wierd things out of human parts,liked to murder women more then men the chainsaw massacare happened august 27,eddie gien was born on the same month and day they have much in common.


rob in s***vill at 2005-07-08 09:46:42
i thick it's true too i mean all the stuff they found i sure did think it was real


braden anderson in texas at 2005-07-07 18:42:39
what i dont get is why the girl with the meat cleaver after hacking off the flubber face guys arm she didnt kill him with the chainsaw. where did the suicidal chic get the pistol I think it was the Sheriffs.


celtic fc fan in police station at 2005-07-06 19:23:57
the name of the survivor was erin


NANCY GETZ in midland,texas 79701 at 2005-07-06 16:20:12
is this real


Anon in Kentucky at 2005-07-06 08:10:14
A little room for reasoning...
The footage at the end of the movie Is Not Actual Footage.
It is one of the two:
1) A product of a Hollywood big wig's imagenation
or
2) A re-enactment of crime scene footage produced by Hollywood.

The Police Does NOT Paticipate in the production of 'Snuff-Films'.

If the footage at the end of the movie (where the officer gets killed) were real, the movie would qualify as a 'Snuff Film' in that aspect.

Does anybody believe that any Law Enforcement Agency would promote 'World Syndication' of a 'Snuff Film'???


Marlencita in San Diego Ca at 2005-07-05 19:31:32
My boy friend told me a that there was another massacre, he said it was called Waco Texas. Could you please give me any information about both of them?

in at 2005-07-04 02:08:34
what was the name of the surviver of the texa chainsaw massacre


Mr.T in Derry city, Ireland at 2005-07-03 12:10:16
I used to love that film now its boring cuz you know whats gonna happen.


leprechaun in Ireland at 2005-07-03 10:59:47
wow wait a minute.so there was no thomas hewitt but there was a man who wore the peoples skins so why didnt they make the texas skin wearer?????? confusing.


blah in blah at 2005-07-03 06:04:48
movie wasnt dat scary .. only n sum parts


bugs bunny in looneyland at 2005-07-03 00:38:42
even though the texas chainsaw massecre is a scary movie why not try and watch the evil dead but its not as good as the texas chainsaw.


victim in I dont know at 2005-07-03 00:29:06
dude/dudess you wont believe this but my aunt was a victim of the texas chainsaw killer thing.


Keeley in Bertram, TX at 2005-07-02 18:45:24
I must say that you've done a great job with your page. However, my mom worked at a prison in East Texas for almost 10 years as a guard, Leatherface's uncle happened to be one of her inmates. Granted most of the movie is based on the serial killer Eddie Gein, the actual story is true. The house happens to be in Williamson County which at the time of the massacres was mostly rural. feel free to contact me.


answers please? in at 2005-07-02 14:43:50
they should make a massacre ps2 game


sam piper in hullbrige essex uk at 2005-07-02 14:30:25
Did thomas hewitt really have his arm cut off?


mercades in sydney australia at 2005-07-02 13:01:29
it is a true story if it wasnt y did i visit the place where it the texas chainsaw massacre took place and read the witness statement from the only person who escaped him him being thomas brown hewitt? i chanllange you to prove me wrong because i no that no police files can be forged or a living whitness lie and why would some1 lie about such a tradgic thing and y would they break down in front of you while reliving the event that happened to them? i myself did not believe it was true till i went and found out for myself i must admit i felt really stupid when i found out i was wrong and it was a true story


Tom in georgetown, tx at 2005-07-01 23:56:38
The house is no longer in travis county hollywood paid for it to moved one county up in walburg, where part of the movie was filmed. If you must have a picture of the hewitt house ask travis county sheriffs for one. I doubt they give it to you but you might get to see it.
It is inspired by a true story because he got 2 cars full of 'kids.' In the movie it is a never ending cycle. another thing that might inspire this movie is that the 'chain saw dude' did not have a skin problem like in the move(why he took the faces off people to ware them). the true dude did it because he wanted to be a female so he would skin women from head to toe more than guys. he just wanted the face of guys he already has/had everything else if you get me.


carlos in panama city at 2005-07-01 04:45:41

i love this very page so keep it up the good work.


Conchata Knight in Thornton, Arkansas at 2005-06-30 09:13:15
So how did the Texas Chainsaw Massacre come about, because my parents are of many who says they remember when that happen.


happydude in Any where from you! at 2005-06-29 21:00:37
do people in here not know how to scroll down a web page, this site is just loop after loop after another loop of the same questions and same lies.

oh one more thing I have learnt one thing off this site, and that is that people imaginations run away due to a truly great movie i do admit!! People make such movies like the TCM because there are millions of people who sub-concisously really want to believe that it happended. These tricks on your mind is what makes a film great among many other things. However sadly no such thing happened!!!! its just a loosely based on story on Ed Gein and people really want there to be more to it than that.
so get a life and stop trying to believe things that did not happen,


david ranta in at 2005-06-29 02:36:46
dose any of you have any pics of the hewitt house in travis county texas?


christal navarrete in mexicali at 2005-06-28 22:29:30
well i think that the last movie made on the texas chainsaw massacre was very kool i liked it when they were gathering the evidence at the begging and at the end it all looked so real but im still confused is everything that happened in the movie true or false because if it were false then who killed the polcie men that were investigating in the basement or was that all part of the movie and how did that tape end up in the directors hands if supposibly both policemen died while being there i would just like to no if the movie was all based on a tyrue story because on sum websites they say its true and some say its not so plz let me no thank you,christal


james in james sprks at 2005-06-28 09:58:56

molli in cali at 2005-06-27 21:37:22
'have to know' if it was real then i have one question.who the hell cares!!!!!!!!it was a sick raunchy thing and it should remembered to an extent but not obsessed over!!! get a life!!!


Angie in Minnesota at 2005-06-27 18:40:23
I want to know if this is real or not. I been looking and trying to find some info! All I find are bogus sites of peoples personal opinion..if anyone can give me any info, please feel free to email me anything, I would really appreciate it! THANKS!


Tom in Georgetown at 2005-06-26 22:00:05
Been to walburg it isnt that scary. Its out there the grass is uncut because the people cant mow evedently. If you go beware your are truspasing (i cant spell).


Tom in Tom at 2005-06-26 21:56:52
Ok, for you that think it is not true go to the travis county shariffs office and ask to see the remaining evedince. Im sure they have what is remaining of it scense the investigation is still on going.


angel in at a friends house at 2005-06-26 00:57:17

tommyb in England at 2005-06-25 00:51:11
yea yea i think the film was kinda heavy still but the geezaz sud hav mashed up that fed wen he started to wrap that girl up.
but i do think ther was a real man who lived in the farm n wen people cum to mayb ask for directions he didnt no how to handle it if uno what i mean n then he wud full on merk em off wid nethink n try n hide the body's sumwere but really u cant hide sumthink for life even if the nearest village/town is miles away...n if it was true yea how did he live cuz he cudnt eat them as he wud hav died at an early age...although in the film it shows him running a meat factory how did he do that wen he wudnt no how to look after cattle never mind lookin after himself

if u ask he went around pickin up people takin em bak to his farm n jus murderin them
thast the only way he cud do it


steli in in Bulgaria in a little shop at 2005-06-24 17:12:28
after my wathch of the film i apreciate the valu of the mans life and that thera are many people who dia in this way


JAY JAY in New Zealand at 2005-06-24 10:43:53
Yeah it is real the government is hiding all the info so people can get over it. They haven't caught Thomas Brown Hewitt yet and probably never will!


alicia garcia in brownsville ,texas at 2005-06-24 09:49:23
i want to know the truth about the texas chainsaw massacre


A sane person in England at 2005-06-24 03:13:16
The film was based very very loosely on Ed Gein, as was Psycho, and The Silence of the Lambs... Do some research please... There was no Thomas Brown Hewitt. How many times do people have to say the same things. Look at see what Tobe Hooper and Kim Henkel say about the origin of THEIR film. And go and watch the original please..


Colby in Corinth,Mississippi at 2005-06-23 03:39:39

in at 2005-06-22 23:46:36
Even though people have posted this before nobody reads enough of the board to notice.
http://www.texaschainsawmassacre.net/Convinced.htm shows that the film was only inspired by Ed Gein and that there was no real 'Leatherface'.


canyon miwa in stevensville montana at 2005-06-22 22:17:57

Pete in Kansas:
That is very interesting what you wrote in your 6/16 message.

Has your stepfather learned Leatherface's real name, and is there a way to look up convict lists of this Huntsville prison?


Lauren in TEXAS! at 2005-06-19 23:02:03
well i think that the stroy is true


Beate Stilve in United States at 2005-06-18 20:13:09
Was this person that did all of this put in a Mental Hospital, and if he was, than why was he not put in a jail instead?


josh in california at 2005-06-17 04:57:05
wow nice story i am a huge sukker for horror films and knowing the truth makes the movies much more original and for those who he killed well............he should have died a slow death


claudia and katie in Pa. at 2005-06-16 23:36:57
that man is he biggest freak!!!!!!! it would have been so scared i would have killed myself!!!!jk!!!!!!!it is nasty to!!!!!!!


alinareed in siouxcity,ia at 2005-06-16 20:09:51
if indeed the whole is not true!why put base on a true story at the begining of the movie.when you do things like that people may think you are lying about the whole story.


Pete in Kansas at 2005-06-16 19:29:49
I have to agree with John in Austin. When the new movie came out our local DJ had people on about this, one was a corrections officer from Huntsville, and he said that leatherface was there, said he is a very, very big man, and that he is druged up all the time. It was weird hearing this because My step father is Locked up there and he confirmed it. Leatherface is on whats called the Ellis Unit in Huntsville Tx. My step dad has been there for 20 years and he said that leatherface has been there the whole time. so I totally belive. The corrections officer also said that the girl in the mental hospital was about 70 miles from where he is locked up.


emma speers n hannah montgomery in im in belfast yeooooo at 2005-06-16 18:18:45

John in Austin, Tx. at 2005-06-15 04:32:40
From a reliable source, Leather face is locked up at Huntsville State Penatentary in Texas. Has been seen by inmates in person. He is in 23 hour solitare heavly guarded.


John in Austin, Tx at 2005-06-15 04:24:41
Is the original house in travis county? Or was that made up? If so what is the location?


jESSICA in California at 2005-06-15 01:39:22

so what did really happen what is true what happen in 1776 with chainsssaw masscare. was there news clipings of it. did they ever catch the person who killed all thoseees people


Kez in Uk at 2005-06-13 23:57:46
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is not true. Ed Gein was a man in a family of four, who all died before him. Boredom, and strict life caused him to turn in to a tranvestite. He killed 2 women, of which he stripped the legs, vagina and head from the muscles and bones, and dressed himself in them. He was charged for killing two women with a Gun. The rest of his victims we, he said, from the grave from which he dug up. You can find all this information in a book called deviant.


in at 2005-06-13 22:50:37
in the end of the 2003 film is the video real is the film industrie allowed to say it is please explain

cecil'e rennae in italy at 2005-06-12 05:12:12
if the texas chainsaw massacre was real, then why wouldnt they b still looking 4 him? i mean if he was still out there wouldnt they notify the public about where they found the killing? and tell everyone to take safety precautions? i think someone is messed up. and what if someone made it up for a publicity story?


Jeri Coate in Houston, Tx at 2005-06-12 03:40:45
I think that it's a true story, but what I wanna know is what happen to him. Did he go to jail or what?


kiaya foster in ireland/dublin at 2005-06-10 11:50:31

Denise in Kentucky at 2005-06-09 06:44:19
Good info, I thought it was real also but than agin I was fooled by the blair witch project lol. Glad it's not real though there is enough like that in our history and present life already. The world is mad! Try to live peacefully and as mentally stable as possible. Just remember happens and learn to deal. peace out!


Courtney in St louis at 2005-06-09 03:04:00
The Chainsaw Masscre is true Because at the end of the film,they showed the only footage they had of blubber face.


Jesse in Washington at 2005-06-09 01:40:07
On August 20th 1973, police were dispatched to the remote farmhouse of Thomas Hewitt, a former worker at a local slaughterhouse in Travis County, Texas. What they found within the confines of his cryptic residence was the butchered remains of 33 victims, a chilling discovery that shocked and horrified a nation in what many still call the most gruesome mass murder case of all time. Brandishing a chainsaw and wearing the grotesque flesh masks of his victims, the killer became forever known as ‘Leatherface’ when sensational headlines were splashed across newspapers throughout the state of Texas. Police and FBI eventually gunned down a man wearing a leathery mask and declared they had their killer and abruptly closed the case. However, in the years that followed, many close to the grisly murder case would come forward to level accusations that police had botched the investigation and knowingly killed the wrong man. Now, for the first time, the only known survivor of the killing spree has broken the silence and come forward to tell the real story of what happened on that deserted rural Texas highway when a group of five young people (Biel, Leerhsen, Balfour, Tucker and Vogel) inadvertently found themselves besieged by a chainsaw wielding madman who would leave a trail of blood and terror that would forever be known as The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

what ever happend to james hewitt?


Victoria Barta in Dalhart, Texas at 2005-06-07 18:36:14
My family and I were trying to figure out where to go for a short but fun vacation, and I was wondering if we could go and actually visit the Hewitt House in Travis County?


sam in pa at 2005-06-07 14:31:16
i really dont understand why someone would actually kill people what makes me wounder is why he would want to and what made him. Also I watched the movie and it doesn't seem to be right because i have went to many other sights saying so.


Brandy in In Texas at 2005-06-07 01:14:43
is this really true? does this stuff really go on?


sammy in home at 2005-06-06 20:41:06

NICOLA in at 2005-06-05 17:11:39
it is rubbish


The Constable in United States of America at 2005-06-05 09:34:53
CRYSTAL in KENTUCKY,
If you know the name of the officer (the one your dad knew) who (you say) was killed while walking the crime scene, please post his name here. A little research thrue the National Law Enforcement Memorial Database could cause the truth of this seemingly ongoing debate to surface.


julio in califorina at 2005-06-04 23:20:46
i think that movie is bad sorry


Ed G in at 2005-06-04 16:42:55
You people! So quick to believe unlikely things! Ed Gein died in 1984, and after searching for about 20 seconds I found a picture of his gravestone. Here it is: http://www.fortunecity.com/roswell/streiber/273/gein_cf.htm

'Just tryin to calm us down', she says! Sometimes people die, it's not that unbelievable.


Michelle in texas at 2005-06-04 16:14:13
I would like to find some old newpspaper articles on 'The Texas Chainsaw Massacre' I would also like to no whether it's true, although it is hard to believe, i do. and for those of you wonderin whether ed gein is still alive, they say he died in a mental instution, but did he, or they just tryin to calm us down? think about and holla back!


kayla in south carolina at 2005-06-04 06:50:04
ok yah i mean gah no one even took up for us yah maybe we dont spell everything right and maybe we get a little off subject but obviously u do the same thing cus ur looking it up arent u? ok then exactly if u tell us to get out and see the world so should u we can do what we want as well as you but people do have spare time and most of the people on here are teenagers anyways so dont got there 'fee'


W.D.HIGGENS in C.ILLINOIS at 2005-06-03 19:47:53
i also seen the movie in the 70's or early 80's first one i saw was bout a man who put human meat in chilli,then the one that was made in 2000,yep its REAL.hey the GOV is hiding somthing,well we know that look at area 51 new mexico..


W.D.HIGGENS in central Illinois at 2005-06-03 19:28:29
seen the movie,sure hope that never happens again,i mean the real killings. thats one bad man and messed up family.


DEREK in SOME PLACE at 2005-06-03 18:07:33
thats messed up


ashley gomez in florida at 2005-06-03 17:33:49
i think dat the texas chainsaw masscre is true because how would they have found all those evedince and scraching on the walls who were probably people who were sufuring in a lot of pain and being terribly tortured by the person who was doing all of these terrible crimes.i know that some of the parts of the movie can be just made up but there can also be alot of truth based on the crimes. all so when the police man steps in the room the person who starts talking is being brutly beet up


cassie in at 2005-06-03 16:29:35


CRYSTAL in KENTUCKY at 2005-06-02 21:20:07
i love both of the movies there so awsome.i know for a fact that the story is true because my dad was friends with one of the cops who was murderde during the police crime scene walk through .no joke


Alex in bristol at 2005-06-02 15:37:39
listen, i think that you are getting way too excited. People get murdered every day. It was just the other day 6 kids led a 5 year old out of his garden and into a woods, and tried to lynch him. I mean it happens right under our noses, so why scream and cause a cababble over a movie and an alleged true story?? ALSO, just to highlight how real and often this happens, a few weeks ago a man broke into a house in the uk and raped a 4 year old girl in her own bedroom, while her parents were asleep in the other room. How do you think she feels? i think that you are all being absorbed by a movie, that is what they make them for!! dont you look silly!


fee in london at 2005-06-02 15:31:52
By the way i came to this site thinking it was going to be interesting, as i am studying criminology and psychology at university, however after reading all of your petty arguments over spelling mistakes, of which don't even have any remote connection with the actual massacre itself, i have come to the conclusion that you are all extremely irritating people who have nothing better to do than sit on here and argue with eachother! Open your bright eyes and get out of your houses, away from your conputers and you will see a much bigger world. All my love x


Zak in new zealand at 2005-06-02 10:30:10

but just because he be careing a teddy bear ain't


chris in indiana at 2005-05-31 20:32:40
the actual masscre you see in the movie may not be real because they say it on the freakin movie, but there was something that INSPIRED them to make the movie and his name was called Ed Gien. He's the real leatherface if you dont know who he is then you should probably read up on him i think you might like it and understand why the texas chainsaw massacre isnt real.


Deb in Georgia at 2005-05-31 19:50:45
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre was a good movie. It might have had some actual events but fact being, that crazy man didn't chase people around with a chainsaw. However, he did kill and skin people. He did make a doll out of the skin, and other various things like belts, shirts, and masks. Anyway you talk about the TCM... the guy was a weirdo. Who knows if he's still alive? But... I wouldn't worry about it.


Ed G in at 2005-05-31 14:33:02
People sometimes get murdered in Canada.


ashley in Texas at 2005-05-31 09:38:27
I was just wondering if it was true if it was I'd move to canada!!!!


Ed G in at 2005-05-31 01:49:37
You can't have scary pictures AND proof that the massacre never happened now can you?


monica campagna in new jersey at 2005-05-31 00:25:24
this website is so pittiful.... no scary pics or proof!!!!!!!!this sucks how will we all figure out the mysterious possibility of this????


monica campagna in new jersey at 2005-05-31 00:21:37
i beleive that i saw the real mansion in pennsylvania where the massacare started and it was by a slaughter factory. there was a bed of roses in the middle of the road and it was raining and i saw an old fat tall man gardening or doing something in his back feild with a shovel and a chainsaw. i was freaked because i thought this happened in texas. but will we ever know the truth?


jack in az at 2005-05-30 22:20:07
and i think that what your saying about the movie not being based on a true story is kinda flawed too. i mean you basically just contridicted yourself in saying half of what you said. you confused me more than anything. i knoew that your talking about ED. Gein and yeah thats screwed up but to be based on actuall events means that some asspects of it are true regardless of how much. now i also saw a short on the TCM and the guy that did the movie did hear a chain saw and he saw one and considered how easy it would be to rip thoriugh the X-MAS shoppers but to be honest i think its kinda funny how other cases have happened with startling resemblence to the TCM because in assence, it is real. it still happenes. that is real. and thats enough to scare me.


jack in az at 2005-05-30 22:09:46
i know someone from the city in texas, well surrounding area, and she tells me this is all the ever talked about. and that they never found the guy cause he spilt once all the went on. and she's and honest peron that has never lied to me or my family before, because she's a family friend. so i dont know....


robert in texas at 2005-05-30 19:33:49
what was the name of the city or town it took place


Cynthia in chicago my sisters house at 2005-05-30 17:24:43
I think you should show his face more like in 1974


Joy in Phoenix Az at 2005-05-30 01:58:01
FYI:
Thank you for the truth as I like to pass on the truth to my four teenage daughters!

Sam in Indiana at 2005-05-28 00:31:08
i really do think the Texas Chainsaw Massacre is true, i think the government is trying to hide it because it is so bizzare.i really want to know about this more.and find out if he is still alive,the texas chainsaw massacre.


Hoopy in Britain at 2005-05-27 13:37:44
Leatherface is really a person. My great aunt Emelda had a secret relationship with him and fathered a child who now lives here in Britain. Her name is Annabella why everyone is so interested in this person I do not know he was evil.


Kate in Brisbane/Australia at 2005-05-27 04:27:38
Hi there,
I'm wanting to research the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, but can't seem to find much on the Internet.
Could you please advise of where I can find information about where and what happened exactly.
Thank-you!


Alanee Roy in Cape Coral, Florida at 2005-05-27 04:17:12
I'd like to know what happened to LeatherFace?I'd also like to know what happened to the Police officer and the camera man? I mean they were there, they know what he looks like and what it's like to be a partial victim of this crucial maniac. I'd like some answers please. We deserve to know if he is still out there living.


Karina Mejia in Stuart, Florida at 2005-05-27 03:04:31
So what did happen to the massacre is he alive or dead or is he dead? Ever since I watched the movie i'm so curios of what happened. So is the woman that survived in a mental institution? I just don't get it. Well if you EVER get a chance to tell me the story i'll be pleased to hear it!!!


kayla in sc at 2005-05-27 01:46:57
uh...if it happend in wisconsin then why is it called the TEXAS chainsaw massacre i mean for real would u actually believe someone who told u that


Melissa in Belvidere,IL at 2005-05-26 23:28:29
How could the massacre not be really? If they made a movie about it? And I heard that it was in Wisconcin?


in at 2005-05-26 23:26:56
how could the chain saw massacre not be really if they made a movie about it? I mean someone had to tell them the story!? But, I heard that it happened in Wisconsin?


kolyn tyminski in 256 dekalb rd granville ny at 2005-05-26 21:57:15
did he really die. is he real. did he die in jail.


teddy in south africa at 2005-05-26 20:42:52
what really happened there becuase i have an assigment due on monday and i have to analyse the film. according to eros/thanakos,oudephus,compression,condensation,displacement,symbolism.so if you can help me with the story or in these analysis that would be a great help.


Ashlie in Tennessee at 2005-05-26 18:54:40
I don't think anyone really knows if it is a true story or not.I think if it is true someone that was working the case needs to come forth and straighten this all out. I think it gives people a sort of rush just to think there could have been a maniac sawing up people and wearing there skin in the U.S. because we have such a large number of cops and forensic scientist that we do need an answer. I have so many questions about it as do so many other people.


lee mckenzie in barnsley uk at 2005-05-26 15:22:38
is not true that the texas chinsaw is not true is a film so dot be scerd ok love lee


irvin in Houston tx at 2005-05-25 23:40:24
Where didi this happend 4 reals because my history teachers say it didi noty happend in travis county so what is the real truth or is just a lot of bounch of lies


caritas in west palm beach library at 2005-05-25 23:23:05
how do you know so much about the taxas chin saw massacer


jessica in Laredo, Texas at 2005-05-25 22:06:25
where are you from? There are many discussions on this point, but the truth is that it is not. Hollywood bills the film as being 'inspired by a true story', not even 'based on a true story'. There was no chainsaw wielding Thomas Hewitt. There was however, a man who skinned his victims and wore their skin. This is the only part of the film that is based on truth.

the texas chainsaw massacre is based on a true story... it happened in Travis County, but up until now, the case remains unsolved.


katie in va at 2005-05-25 18:30:42
he actually killed 33 persons and only 1 i think got away. it's really true and really sad.


katie in Virginia at 2005-05-25 18:28:45
I believe the TCM and it's very sad that it actually happened. My grandmother was alive when it really happened! There is a place down here in Yuma that a little girl stayed in because her parents were abusing her. She died and everytime me and my boyfriend go near it it's like she's sitting on the porch. We've seen her when she was alive but now we swear we still do. Also, i lived in this house in kingsport that was haunted. everytime i went into a room i felt a cold breeze and once i felt a really hard smack across my face and heard a young girl tell me to get out because her boyfriend wanted to 'do' me. She said i was too pretty and she couldn't have that. it was horrible cause it was the first time me and josh(my bf) had stayed the night together. Scarey times and please kids i'm 16 so be careful if you feel there's a ghost around.


Emma in Northern Ireland at 2005-05-25 18:20:31
my friend had this tune which included a chainsaw being used and she told me tat its da theme tune from texas chainsaw massacre!! wat really freaked me out is tat she said it was a real story and i cant stop thinkin bout it!! is she right??


amanda in alaska at 2005-05-25 16:17:36
is it a true story.oh because my friends wanted to know.


emma in cygnet at 2005-05-25 04:46:30
is the Texas chainsaw massecre Real?????


ryan in Austin Texas at 2005-05-25 04:15:02
There is a place over here in austin texas called gunts and it is a place where thease two people lived and they used to slaughter people but after a while they died but their dad mr.gunts still lives there and 1 time we went out there and we were not sure if it was him or not but he was trying to shoot us with a gun that had a laser on it but he could not see us band after that we had left to a librbry and asked about mr.gunts and they said that the texas chainsaw masacre was a mix between the mormon killings and gunts

Tweeder Perkins in at 2005-05-24 23:47:25
whast the footage at the end of the new Texas Chainsaw Massacre I am looking this up for my little brother he is still in high school and he is needed to know this thanks


goetzingerjohn in Louisville,Ky. at 2005-05-24 18:33:50
If this story about Texas chainsaw is not true,than why is the latess movie have real crime scene? What about the girl that survied,in a mental ins?


Ed G in at 2005-05-24 14:44:03
Why is the government trying to hide it from the world? They don't hide other massacres from the world. And when they do try to hide things from the world they often fail. So there's no reason to believe that at all.


bob in florida at 2005-05-24 14:11:39
so did it really happend or not? how did you find this stuff out any way?


BW in TX at 2005-05-24 13:40:29
The masacre is real it really happened the goverment is just tryinn to hide it from the world the truth is still to be told

I was wondering if you can give me more information about the Texas Chainshaw Massarce. When i watch the movie The 2nd version, and they said the case is still open till this very day. I was just curious if they ever caught Thmas Hewitt or is he still out there in hiding. Thank you so much for your time


penny in texas at 2005-05-24 01:07:01
ok for the people who believe that the texas chainsaw massacre was true......if you had any clue about murders or massacre's you would know that this would have been all over the news..and yet it wasnt. nothing in the movie was true.


Bree in New Zealand at 2005-05-23 06:06:22
I love Texas chainsaw Massacre and I am mad about it.
I want to know where
Ed Gein lives so when I save enough money 2 go Texas and I want to see his house .
And I dont think that the movie is real but I think that
Ed Gein did some killing for real.


Holly in Ohio at 2005-05-22 23:17:36
In the film there was footage of a cop going through the house and there was fingernails still in the wall...Is that true?


aldo macnamara in Ireland at 2005-05-22 17:26:20
i think that this story is true and ppl are just tryin to hide the facts that there is a sick mofo out there who has and always will kill again. But i suppose that he might be dead by now coz of all the surgery he done himself he might be infected by now but if he isnt dead i am very suprised. y didnt he just see a doctor if he was so botherd about his apperance? i need some answers
fae confused aldo macmamara (ireand) am on ma hols so i will get da message when i return home.

My name is Elize Dutton. I am a reporter, well not officially but Im going to be when I graduate. Thats beside the point. I am a reporter for murders, and unsloved mysteries. Whenever there is death in Georgia whether it be one person or a serial killer, Im there. I have always been fasinated with the 'not true' story of The texas chainsaw massacre. As a child it would spark my interest. How could a whole family be so crazy? One day I found out the truth. There really isnt a Texas Chainsaw massacre. I personally think that people who have no life and like making life seem as sucky as their ownn should just let things alone. So what if there really isnt a crazed murderer who has a family that joins him in his killing sprees. It doesnt nmatter how you feel. you should just let peoples imaginatons wonder.Just let things go the way they are suspose to be.

my friends and i watched this film and always believed that it was a true story.i have tried to look up info on the case and have turned up nothing.if indeed this was an actul event then why is it so difficult to find info on this?


carol in texas at 2005-05-18 02:52:14
The story is true. I remember it from when I was a young girl. Also, the surviving member of the 'Chainsaw Massacre' was inprisoned in the Darrington Unit in Rosharon, Texas. He was released in the eary 1990's to the Dallas Texas area.


alex garza in in pasco at 2005-05-18 01:32:02
the massacre is real but all i want to know is if the guy who killed the people is in jail or not because im habing a argument that the guy is in jail but some people are saying he is not.

Vernell Gaines in Savannah,GA at 2005-05-16 15:48:11
I'm doing a essay on the Texas Chainsaw Massacre and I need a summary of the incident. I need to know how it began, who was the killer, how the community responsed,and other interesting facts about it.


Josh in Christchurch, New Zealand at 2005-05-16 15:05:58
This movie reminded me of the true stories or (epitaphs) of an axe murderer who lived in a small farming community in the Hawkes Bay of New Zealand during the 1920's. There was so much in common with this movie and an actual event that had actually happened. John D. Cotterill was the murderer who killed at least 25 victims with an axe in a wool shed where he used to chop his victims (reason is he may of been a cannibal). Just to remind everyone that gruesome murders dont happen in one place they can happen everywhere. But by watching the movie it seemed that this could be an everyday reoccurence, and you may step on something you may want to forget


Ed G in at 2005-05-16 13:28:10
That last bit doesn't add up, loco. The state of Texas has no reason to care about the movies. Has tourism in Texas suffered over the last 30 years? No. It's had the reverse effect if anything.

And even if Texas did object to the movies, they would have no power to do anything about it.

But even if the movies did give Texas a bad name, and even if the state could have had the films stopped, why would they allow them to go ahead just because they're true stories? If they could stop the films it'd be more important to stop them if they were true. If they're fictional, it doesn't matter where they're set.


loco in texas at 2005-05-16 08:58:01
the actual event did take place in texas...in fact its in travis county on the outside of austin tx. the old farm is still there today...well at least part of it. the family did exist. and most of the accounts in the first movie did happend...the othere movies are a hoax...they didnt happen...they just wanted to keep it alive...the remake of the original texas chainsaw massacre where events to what actually happen...there was a woman that did survive this account...not only the fact is that i use to work in the correction facility and thomas hewitt aka leatherface, bubba sawyer, and so one in still in the texas insain asylum...i know this cause ive seen him with my own two eyes...hes not like you would think...today he is a calm person...when being raised in a family that does nothing but butcher cattle,pigs, etc. thats the only thing u know. killing people was just the next step...ive listen to some of the things he had to say...some sound like a child that was confussed or push into doing it, the rest sounds like he didnt know no better and thought it was ok to do things in that nature...we do know for a fact that in the remak there where 2 officers that died looking over the grounds serching... they did die...that really happend...we also know that he had 2 brothers and we dont know where they are at are even alive today...but i do kow as of 10 years ago, he was still lock up in the insain asylum...the next thing is think about it...do u really think that the state of texas would let a movie company make a movie that gave texas a bad history if it didnt really happen...think on that for a while...


stephanie in wisconsin at 2005-05-15 23:59:39
why did this ed guy kill people? is he in jail or is he dead? why did leather face cover his face with human skin?


Katey in Boston,Ma at 2005-05-15 23:39:13
Nevermind, I found out the answer to my previous question,but I have a new one! Where was the location in Texas where the film was made? I tried going to www.texaschainsawmassacre.net a thousand times to find out,but the page cannot be displayed!


Katey in Boston,Ma at 2005-05-15 22:31:12
I always knew the story wasn't completely true and that it was just losely based on Ed Gein's life,but I always thought it truly happened in Texas.Come to find out Ed Geins was born and died in Wisconsin.So did the murders take place in Wisconsin or Texas???

ANNA in LONDON ENGLAND at 2005-05-13 18:33:59
DEAR BUNDLE,
In response to your comments on my readily trusting nature. I sometimes like to keep an open mind on things. This means giving people the benefit of the doubt unless Iam given specific concrete evidence to suspect insincerity. I HAD NOT NOTICED the discrepancy in ''Kristen HEWITT''S KINSHIP CLAIMS. I felt that there may be some possibility that at least one or two surviving members of Thomas Hewitt's family have logged onto the internet. But of course in theory, people may choose to masquerade as all types of individuals in the absence of a computer policing system. Therefore, you are absolutely right to exercise caution! ANNA


cheyenne in florida at 2005-05-13 13:22:37
what the hell i always went on thinking that the film was real. and now i know its not.

Anon in Kentucky at 2005-05-11 03:58:23
Angela, Im not trying to offend you, but ED G does have a right to remain anonymous. Im pretty sure that ED's not the moderator of this site though. He and I had a mild (no hard feelings) misunderstanding a while back when the moderator had deleted a post that he didn't see. I use the name 'Anon' short for 'Anonymous' and I may not even be in Kentucky, I could be in Texas or elsewhere. We dont even know that your real name is 'Angela' or if your really in Florida and don't really want to know (no offence, just that I respect your privacy). Now to the pictures. This site has a prelude that (to put it short) says the Texas Chainsaw Massacre Did Not Happen. If you are looking for pictures from the movie location, you can find them at texaschainsawmassacre.net . I have been asking people for proof that this thing happened without result. Some claim to have news clippings but wont scan them and post a link. I managed to get a mp3 of an alledged news report. The only thing is, the more I listen to it, the more digitalized the reporters voice sounds. Im not sure if thats an effect from converting it from 8-track to wav and then to mp3 format, or if the report is a fake. If you scroll down you will find the link to it. Now I never tried to post a photo on this page, so I don't know if it would work.
If that worked, it wont be there after google refreshes it's cache.


angela felton in pensicola,florida at 2005-05-10 19:30:20
I think who ever is running this site should put pictuers from the t.c.m on the page...

Bundle in at 2005-05-10 18:02:38
I am astounded Anna that you seriously believe that 'Kristen Hewitt' is the niece of Thomas Hewitt. There are so many people on this page who claim to be related to Hewitt, or the victims, or the police officers, or worked in the institution where Hewitt supposedly lives etc. Even if I believed that the Texas Chainsaw Massacre were a true story, I would in no way believe that any of the people who visit this site really are related to him. And Kristen got so confused in her story that she said both her uncle and her father's uncle is Thomas Hewitt! You seem an intelligent woman - surely it's obvious to you when people are mucking about and when they aren't?


ANNA in LONDON ENGLAND at 2005-05-10 17:00:11
DEAR KRISTEN HEWITT[NEICE OF THOMAS BROWN HEWITT], Just incase you log onto this page again. Iam responding to your general message recorded on Sunday 23 January at 1.52AM. Since watching the 2003 movie remake of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre at the cinema, which impacted on me immensely, I have developed an enthusiastic interest in the subject. Reading your computer message has reinforced my eagerness to obtain as much information on the matter as possible. There are so many contradictory and conflicting stories in circulation on this issue that many people are utterly confused, including myself. The prologue introduction of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre novel [by Stephen Hand] briefly outlines the events relating to the Hewitt farmhouse murders. I hope you do not mind me saying so, but there are so many unanswered questions in this case. It is understood that your uncle Thomas is now 64 years old; if so where is he? If he is still alive, is he really incarcerated in an institution in a near catatonic state as indicated in the book? Did he really lose an arm which was hacked off by the only known survivor of his crimes? Did he really wear a mask made from human skin? What was the motivation behind the killings? Why was the case closed without a trial? How did the murders go undetected in the neighbourhood for so lng? Was it true that your uncle suffered from skin cancer for which he was teased and ridiculed throughout his childhood? I would appreciate it if you would find the tme to provide some answers to these questions. I can assure you one hundred percent that I simply have a very keen leisurely interest[a deep fascination] in the bizarre and mysterious workings of the human mind. Ihave not set out to capture or entrap anyone. You can truly trust me on that. Please email me as follows. stansfield2000anna@hotmail.co.uk I sincerely hope to hear from you and very many thanks in advance. ANNA

sheena in im doing a paper on this for school at 2005-05-09 22:46:43
I know in the movie his family knew what he was going, and they liked what he was doing, but in real life did Ed Gein's family know about it, and did they like it???? And also in the movie he had a little girl in real life did he?????


Ed G in at 2005-05-09 22:36:59
Who, me? No. But I do know that there weren't a bunch of people who got massaced, and the person who didn't do it wasn't called a massacre.

DEAR TCM ENTHUSIASTS, The prologue of the 2004 novelization [ISBN 1-84416-060-2] of the TCM movie, briefly outlines the events relating to the real-life massacre at Travis County in 1973. But there are still so many unanswered questions. Does the movie give an accurate portrayal of the real story? Was the film footage real? Was the sole suspect killed in mistaken identity? Why was the case closed without a trial? Does Thomas Hewitt have any surviving relatives? Why are the murders omitted from every encyclopaedia on twentieth century crime? How did his crimes go undetected for so long? Are newspaper articles on the story still in existence today? Why has the only known survivor taken so long to come forward? If anyone has any information on this case, particularly Travis County police authorities and Thomas Hewitt contemporaries, then please contact me by email as follows. stansfield2000anna@hotmail.co.uk Very many thanks indeed ANNA

Dear Fellow Enthusiasts, ther is so much conflict and
confusion in stories relating to the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, the case is extremely confusing. Since watching the 2003 movie remake, which impacted on me greatly, I have developed more than a keen interest in the subject. There are so many unanswered questions; was the murderer eventually apprehended or killed? Was Thomas Hewitt mentally disturbed? What were the motivating factors behind the crimes? Was he facially deformed and mute? What was his family background? Did he canibalise his victims/ Does he have any surviving relatives? How did his crimes go undetected for so long? Can someone please enlighten me as to what the correct answers may be to all these questions. My email address is stansfield2000anna@hotmail.co.uk. Very many thanks in advance, ANNA.


court in at 2005-05-04 03:22:13
How could the Chainsaw Massacre not be real?? His real name in life is leather face. I've heard stories that they've seen him just a couple of months ago but didn't catch him.

i never really truly thought that the texas chainsaw massacre was a true story but i have to addmit sometime i wonder, if you havn't noticed there are alot of people who would blow things out of proprotion, personally i think there was a man/or thing who did kill and keep those bodys for play, but i doubt that he was anything like the 2204 movie (texas chainsaw massacre)made him out to be!


Sheena Hayden in Kentucky at 2005-04-30 00:44:35
I would like to see some kind of actual proof, if there is any?? I have always been a big fan of this movie( new and old version ) growing up I had heard leatherface was real, and the story was true, my opinion is that its all false, but I could be wrong.... Looking for answers if anyone has any???? ..... thanks

To Leatherface,
I can't understand why a man would hide around and let people make a fool out of him.
You have been insulted! They say your fake. They claim your only a legend.

In the meanwhile, Movie Makers are makeing a $ Forutne $ by makeing fun of you and your family.

Why not come out of hideing and ca$h in for yourself.
Lot's of people would pat BIG MONEY to get an exclusive interview with the one and only Leatherface.

If you told the True Story to a book writer, You could become a wealthy man.

Now I'm not trying to insult you by calling you Leatherface but I don't know your real name.

I know enough about human nature to know that you are a verry smart man to have remained hidden all these years.
You are smart enough to figure out that No One would arrest you for Mass Murders that most everyone (Includeing the Government) claim never happend.

Here's how to get the publicity that you need for Reporters to pay you for interviews:

Go to the police dept and explain to them that your Leatherface, of course they won't believe you, but when the officers on duty tell the wife about you trying to turn yourself in, word will spread like wildfire.

Once word is out that a man claiming to be Leatherface 'Tried to turn himself in...' gets out, reporters, writers, radio talk show hosts and other well known personalities will be willing to pay Big Buck$ to talk with you. I bet magazines will be willing to pay big big money for your story.

How could the police arrest you for crimes that were never committed? They aren't going to 'own up' to lieing to the public and putting lives in danger, now are they???

I know that a man as smart as you are, Leatherface, is curious enough to know what the public is saying about you. I wouldn't doubt that you read this board frequently, perhapps even posting here under assumed names trying to convince the skeptics that you are a real person, not some figment of a movie maker's imagenation.

The choice is yours to cash in and live on easy street.

Look at how many people have become wealthy by useing you.
Don't you think it's time to get your share of the money?

You have so many fans that you could sell autographed photos on Ebay for $20.00 each. I'd have to bet that more than a million would be sold as soon as Art Bell finds out that you are for real. Give Art a rip roaring telephone interview. Contact the National Enquirer or The Weekly World News and offer to sell them an interview.

People from all over the world would like to know the details of the Chainsaw Massacre; The brand of chainsaw used, the number of victoms, if either movie comes close to telling the story like it happened, etc...

Take the step Leatherface, Turn yourself in. They can't arrest you for something that they covered up.

I would like to know if the texas chainsaw massacre is a true story and if the man responsible is stil alive and if he had ever been caught.


Adam in In New Mexico at 2005-04-28 03:59:19
Im realy scared of the Texas chainsaw massacar. Ive seen the movie but I want to see the second one too. Well see you later by.


tyonna in school at 2005-04-27 20:41:08

Renae Rendon in ada oklahoma at 2005-04-27 20:32:38
ok so what you are saying is that it is not true or what exactly about it is true?


Tamara in at school at 2005-04-27 16:23:32

Anthony Dutcher in Minnasota at 2005-04-27 15:19:02
Where did the Texas Chainsaw Massacare Really take Place at?


Blair in California at 2005-04-27 14:33:50
I knew Robert Kleason and Gary Darley, one of his victims.
I even helped search for the missing men, and turned over letters Kleason wrote me as evidence in his trial.
Thank you for helping to clear up the rumors that TCSM was inspired by that event. From the dates of the event, it COULD have been the other way around
Thanx!


Taysha in Australia at 2005-04-27 10:41:29
I think that Ed Gein is seriously freaky, who would make a belt out of nipples? eww. Also how could anyone or any author/director have the nerve to create such phsycotic people? It is seriously disturbing. Have you seen the movie ' Indentity ' ---The kid is the murderer (OMG i had a feeling it was him but I didn't want to believe it)


Mikel Taylor in Parkersburg,WV at 2005-04-26 14:02:19
Cant the people get in trouble for saying it is a true story and it is not


ross martens in saskatchewan,canada at 2005-04-26 03:46:08
i beleive the Ed Gein story is true but is there probable evidence that proves the taxas chain saw insident never occured as protraed in the films or is really the Ed Gein story all screwed up and twisted just to make a good movie so i need to know the real truth thank you


nick ierulli in fl at 2005-04-26 00:50:40
is there any photos of his face
is he real is he really still alive (nick)


Janelle aka Jello in miami florida at 2005-04-25 21:14:32

janelle in florida at 2005-04-25 20:39:56
i think the chainsaw massacre is so cool!!!!!!


Rose in Texas at 2005-04-25 19:20:13
I know that some think that the Texas chainsaw massacre was nothing more than a fake story with the help of the events that the sycho Ed Gein did in the 1940s, but lets think about the logic ok. We all know that the 'massacre' commited by Ed happened in Wisconsin and not in Texas, so if it's true that the story was based on him, then why not call it 'The Wisconsin Chainsaw Massacre'. Another thing lets not forget the fact that he killed women and onlder women for that matter not kids in their early 20's. Why couldn't it be true that the Massacre really happened in texas and that the killer was never found. Just because you have never seen it or you have never heard of it it does not mean it does not exist. You think that the Police or whatever would want the public to know that they let a crazy siko excape from them? Wouldn't look to good now would it? Couldn't they have just tried to not talk about it so much so that it would be easier for every one to forget the tragedy. Please do not give me the 'but it's to horrible, no human could be that crazy' excuse. Truth is that there are some sikos out there and why is it so hard to believe that this was real? Think about ED, think about hitler and think about all the other sikos over the years. This is true, it's just hidden somewhere where the public is not allowed to go.


Renay in texas at 2005-04-25 14:24:46
so the texas chainsaw massacre is all a lie it really isnt true


kme in us of a at 2005-04-25 02:59:20
After watching the movie I had to info on this guy so my cous did a search for me it said he died from skin cancer but can't rememeber the date and anyone who wants proof from me leave your e-mail i'll send you some


in South Carolina at 2005-04-24 23:44:57
THis movie scared me so bad that I made my b/f get on the internet just to prove that this so called Thomas Brown Hewitt was dead. We never could find any real information but now that I have read this site it gives me a great thought of safeness and will make it a lot easier to sleep at night. I am so releived.


Anon in Kentucky at 2005-04-24 19:08:36
I agree with ED G, 'Hollywood doesn't try to brainwash people' but Shawnna and ashley do bring up an important point. The original Texas Chainsaw Massacre was shot by an Independant Film Maker. Maybe thats why the 1974 TCM has remained a classic for three decades. NewLine's remake is just another slasher film to me. I guess what im trying to say is that NewLine is a master of 'Hollywood' Blood, Gore and Hype and isn't beyond manufactureing False News Reels and Fake Police Footage. If this a true story, I would suggest looking beyond NewLine productions. I am doubting any truth behind the story at all nowdays(in spite of my faint memories of television news footage that my memory keeps bringing up to me). Maybe such a similar crime did happen. Maybe a Texas Chainsaw Massacre did happen. It's not totally impossible. But as I said before, Im trying to keep an open mind (but it's getting harder to do every single day). I will close with a few requests:
1) If anyone has any news paper clippings, please scan them and post a link.
2) Get Sworn/Attested (Notorized) Affidavids / Statements from those people who claim it's true, Scan them, and post a link to them.
3) All of you people claiming to be peace officers, Scan us some official doccumentation on your DEPT LETTERHEAD and have it signed by your chief and notorized as an attested True Statement or RELEASE OF INFORMATION. Leatherface, If he is real, should be captured (if he is still alive, there is a possibility that he's only about 48 - 50 years old (And I know healthy loggers of that age group)). So all of you who (claim to be) in Law Enforcement should get the word out. Put him on America's Most Wanted or something! (that is if he's for real)


Ed G in at 2005-04-24 14:16:56
Hollywood doesn't try to brainwash people, Shawnna. They just make films.


Melissa in In The Basement at 2005-04-24 05:59:58
Did he only skin girls?


ashley in Kentucky at 2005-04-24 05:49:04
hey you all need to understand that the idea of a remake is a FAKE! you're basing this on hollywood films which most of them are made up or totaly remade to where it's all hollywood. my grandparents were there when this took place! they past the bbq place. this is factual! so if you don't believe me that's just TO bad! if you have pictures then i would love to see them! all you got to do is e-mail tham to me! cause all i can say is i won't belive it until i see it! if you belelive a cheap script then you go right ahead but i know what really happend and the remake is a fake! WATCH THE ORIGINAL!!!!!!!


Harold in Texas at 2005-04-24 05:43:32
Is it possible that the killer could still be alive or that there are copycat killers?


Shawnna in Kentucky at 2005-04-24 05:36:54
You all think you know so much. If all of you have actual pictures and infornmation why don't you share it with the public? The Texas Chainsaw Massacre did happen to an extent. There was a family that lived way out in the desert they never said actual location. People would tresspass on their land and no one seen them again. it never said what actually happened to them. There was a resturant a few miles from where they lived that got shut down because they were serving actual human bbq. You all are basing your ideas of an actual man running around with a camera filming this. Hollywood got their hands on a good idea so of course they tried and succeeded to brainwash people. And apparantly if you believe the movie instead of actual events then no wonder you cant get your facts straight. It happened in Texas and they ate human meat. That was all there was to the story. Hollywood created Leatherface. There are no pictures! If you were around in 1973 and was watching the news you would have seen it. Put two and two together. All the information that there is was on the news that day. The movie is a fake. It said inspired by true events. What was true? The human eating, and the location. Thats it. If you want semi close facts watch the original not the cheap thrill of a horror movie remake. That's for teeny boppers, not horror buffs.

Layla Jhonson in anderson,tx at 2005-04-23 06:17:42
ok, i dont think that this story is true, if the story was so true what happened to the chick that survived with the baby at the end also why hasnt the media got involed in the issue if it where true and if it did happen in what town in Texas did it happen, i just dont think that anything like that has happend yet or maybe we just arent aware of it, but if it was true how did the movie makers get the suppose documentary at the end of the movie.... and why wasnt this kind of information out to the open??????


Jon Pickel in Chicago, IL at 2005-04-23 00:03:34
I agree that this story is a hoax, but I have just one question. In the beginning of the remake (never saw the orginal) and at the end, they have the police with the video camera recording the crime scene and having the criminal jump at them at the end. Is that all just made up or is that an actual crime scene, perhaps from a different crime other that Gein's? Just curious. Thanks


jeremy spagnola in at 2005-04-22 22:40:56
Why did he kill people. What made him do it.


paola in texas at 2005-04-22 20:52:45

IS the TCSM a true story. Is the house he lived instill in Travis county texas.


danny in taylor, texas at 2005-04-22 13:09:45
I went out to the house where they filmed the movie, which is about 5 miles from my town, and the house alone scared the crap out of me just like the movie did even though nothing like this happened at the house or any other house. By the way, the movie is not true people.

I Repeat; I wish that all of these people who claim to have 'News Paper Clippings' would scan them and post a link to them. Thanks in advance.


Anon in Kentucky at 2005-04-21 21:33:38
Allthough I do have vaigue memories of news reports concerning a 'Texas Chainsaw Massacre', Im starting to wonder if the public reaction to the movie is what was being reported. True, this report was among a mix of footage of an ambulance at a crime scene and areal footage of some type of a farm. I am keeping an open mind however, because this was in the Vietnam War time. So in brief, the memories of the newscast could have been due to inattention and the report of 'public reaction to a movie' precedeing actual 'crime news' and footage of Vietnam. Now To the reason that Im doubting my own memory... I recently watched the original 'Night Of The Living Dead' for the first time in 12 years. I must admit that the radio broadcasts in both movies NLD & TCM (1974) Sound verry realistic. Night Of The Living Dead also had a cannibalistic theme. Could Hooper have been inspired by NLD when he made TCM? Needless to say, I will continue to research and look for actual proof that the Chainsaw Massacre really did happen, but at the same time I will be working just as hard to prove that it didn't. I can't let my personal beliefs stand in the way of the truth. Earlier I posted a link to a sound clip that I ran across on the web, but the more I listen to it, the more the announcers vouce sounds 'digitalized' which leaves me to wonder if it is real and was flawed during the conversion to mp3 format, or a hoax. At this time I must admit that I was once a believer, but now I don't know what to believe. Maybe that's why so many people keep up with the research and keep asking the same questions. It this is true, I wish that all of these people who claim to have 'News Paper Clippings' would scan them and post a link to them (Just be sure to embe
