Was The Texas Chainsaw Massacre in jail at the Huntsville unit?

If you are referring to the person, Leather Face, then no. It was not a real person. The story and family was loosely based off of the famous Serial Killer, Ed Gein. He did have some masks made of human flesh, however the story of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre was made up so this chainsaw wielding masked murderer was not in jail...or any jail in all for he is not real.


Where was The Texas Chainsaw Massacre killer caught?

Leatherface is a fictional character.The Texas Chainsaw Massacre never happened in real life. Despite the disclaimer at the beginning of the original film, which touts the movie as "...an account of a tragedy which befell a group of five youths...For them an idyllic summer afternoon drive became a nightmare...This video cassette is based on a true incident and is definitely not for the squeamish..." in truth The Texas Chainsaw Massacre was not really based on a true story.The filmmakers just wanted people to think it was a true story, so more people would go see the movie. It was also a bit of a joke on their part, to see if people would believe it was real. This is not an unheard-of tactic: for example, the 1999 movie the Blair Witch Project was also touted as a true story by the filmmakers, when in truth it is completely fictional and all the actors in it are alive and well to this day. The disclaimer at the beginning of the 1996 movie Fargo also asserts that it is a true story, when it is actually pure fiction.The Texas Chainsaw Massacre was inspired by a true story, which is a long way away from being based on a true story. The truth is that the director, Tobe Hooper, got the idea for the Leatherface character from the real case of the serial killer Ed Gein. The rest is completely fictional. Ed Gein was only one man; he did not belong to a family of chainsaw murderers, and he lived in Wisconsin, not Texas.Ed Gein murdered at least two women, one of whom was found hanging disemboweled and decapitated in his house, and also allegedly engaged in necrophilia and cannibalism with his victims' corpses. He did not, however, murder them with a chainsaw.I have included a link to the snopes.com page about the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. I have also included a link to a page that compares the Ed Gein murders to the movie.


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.
