There was never a chainsaw massacre in Texas.
some of Leatherface's characteristics were borrowed from Ed Gein (who was also the inspiration for "Psycho" and Buffalo Bill in "Silence Of The Lambs")

It is a work of fiction, Tobe Hooper came up with the idea when he was in a hardware store and saw the chainsaws on the wall and the crowd of people ahed of him.
