Not in the least. It is VERY loosely based on the exploits of real life murderer, Ed Gein, but he never did the kinds of murders shown in the films. He did create grisly human remains based art which is shown in the original, was an alleged cannibal, and a grave robber, but that was about it.
Was Leatherface based on Ed Gein?
The movie Texas Chainsaw Massacre is only loosely based on Ed Gein. The main villiain, "Leatherface" wears a mask made from human skin (as did Buffalo Bill in "Silence of the Lambs"), which is one of the items discovered in Ed's Wisconsin farmhouse when he was arrested. Along with several face masks, Ed also made leggings, chest pieces, and had an assortment of female vulvas all from the flesh of corpses and victims. Ed did not use a chainsaw to dismember his victims, just large knives and chains.
